Women are strong. Women are beautiful. Women are bold. Women are leaders. They are innovators. They are builders. They are kind, gentle and can roar like you have never heard before. As we celebrate International Women's day we look back and those stories where we have celebrated women for the brilliance they are. We pause for the day, but we celebrate the undeniable stamp women have and will continue to have on the world. Here is to those women who we speak of and for all those who quietly are making the world a better place.
