Thank you. I can't find the words to express how much I admire you for doing the work you do despite the hate. I'm sorry we live in a world where the work you do inspires such vile sentiment, but I'm grateful for people like you making the world less horrible.

Thank you for making space in meetings. Thank you for all of it, but especially that.
It's difficult to have faith in your own voice when it's consistently drowned out - especially in those subtle ways it happens in meetings.
Early in my career, I worked with a man who would consistently refer back to a woman who had been interrupted. He always made it seem organic and I don't think most of the men even realized it was happening. But the women noticed the pattern. I know I'm not the only woman who learned to be more comfortable advocating for myself, thanks to him.
My husband is a stay-at-home, homeschooling dad with LOTS of parenting experience, thanks to fostering for over 10 years and having six permanent kids between the ages of 11 and 31. We call it momsplaining when some other homeschool mom with only 1-2 kids tries to tell him how to parent our infant foster son.
Beautiful! I love how the lipstick sets off the pink in the frames without being matchy-matchy!!
Where the hell did the "L" come from?????
