On International Womenâs Day, Iâve been thinking about the women who made me.
A teacher who saw something in me when I didnât see it myself.
A great aunt who showed me what it looks like to live life entirely on your own terms.
Poets and writers who proved that womenâs voices belong at the centre of the story.
And yes â a fictional redhead who taught me more than sheâll ever know.
Swipe to meet them. đ
These women taught me that your story can be your power. Thatâs what I try to bring into every session with my students.
Happy International Womenâs Day to every woman reading this.
Because as Audre Lorde said: I am not free while any woman is unfree.
Whoâs a woman who shaped you? Iâd love to know in the comments. đ
