Happy international Women’s Day! And Happy Women’s History Month!
This time of year is an opportunity to celebrate the contributions women have made to the culture, history and society of the United States, as well as their contributions to the world-at-large. But have you stopped to think about what it takes to fulfill these roles effectively?
When you look at your own life, do you find that you are putting yourself on the back burner in order to meet the needs of all those who are depending on you for mental, physical, emotional, financial support? Will your legacy be one of self-love or self-sacrifice?
