That we can own and celebrate our individual yet connected journeys. I love that as a woman we have this innate ability to falter and still rise, to bend without breaking and the grace and grit to keep going in spite of all biases and barriers laid before us. – Sarah Elizabeth Jackson, Da Lady Boss, Simply JIM-DANDY Being a woman is the most beautiful and powerful thing! I have the possibility of bringing new life and essentially being partly responsible for the way it impacts the world. From bad cramps to street harassment, to everything good in between. I love that at the end of the day, being a woman means being able to get through it. – Kimberly Robb-Brown, business development officer, MindfulYou360 Soaps and KRBSWIM Beach Essentials Nurturers, warriors, hunters, safe havens – we own these roles with a level of grace and assertiveness that only a woman can. Grace Jones, Katherine Johnson, and Gloria Stein have proven the extent of our gender’s tenacity. No matter what barrier we face, we hit it until it starts crumbling. We are always getting in good and necessary trouble. This is what I love about being a woman. – Marishka-Kaye Massey, chief executive officer and head designer, The Agency I am proud to be a strong, driven, inspirational, aspirational, dynamic female human being. I enjoy being a multifaceted woman juggling family life, job, business, and so much more. A woman is usually the trusted adult who is given the nurturing role of caring for children, adolescent mothers, and the elderly, and I am humbled that I can contribute to these areas through my business, my family, and as a part of my social responsibility. These roles have been my most satisfying and rewarding accomplishments. I am grateful to be living in an era where there’s emphasis on gender balance as this allows me to represent the female trailblazers who paved the way for us. I appeal to other women to get involved in moulding lives. – Janice Levy, senior sales executive, The Gleaner Company (Media) Ltd
