This is Women’s History Month.

Friday will be International Women’s Day.

We have some amazing women on this platform doing remarkable work in real life.

If I begin here with a small sampling, will you add more via QS or comment?

Love,
April 💛

@mcgarrygirl78 is an author who has recently found her books placed in bookstores.

Montiese hosts “Completely Unserious” pods and reading her timeline is a little like perusing someone’s journal.

@FruitFacedFruitKace

Kace is a tireless advocate. The first to call out an injustice, to apologize if she’s wrong, and to put her fears and emotion out there for all of us to appreciate.

Kace brings me great joy. Our world needs much more Kace. 💛

Why?
Because that’s who Maria is.
She uplifts. She recognizes. She empowers.
