When you're uber busy finishing your budget for work, and your son asks for home- work help, find comfort that he asked and work together to finish both projects even if you're up past bedtime. n CHOOSE. You do have a choice. Seriously, nobody cares about the dust bunnies, so choosing to color with your child is often more important than cleaning. Zooming with your best friend can take priority over cooking a fancy meal; a quick breakfast for dinner can be just as tasty. I truly believe it takes a village. I'm encouraged to see many of my sisters coming together to uplift one another. WHAT YOU CAN DO 1. Actively participate in and become instrumental in at least one women's group. A service organization, book club, wine tasting, or hiking club are all good fits. Don't find something that speaks to your soul? Start your own. 2. Mentor and mentee. Seek out both an older and a younger mentor who you admire to learn from and work with. Be open to mentoring other women and especially young girls; your experience and wisdom should be shared. 3. Power of 3+. Have a close group of gal pals to laugh, cry, unload, and grow with. Daily texts that inspire or are silly get you go- ing. Need to complain about the kids or your significant other? This is a safe place for that. Want fashion advice for a power meeting; send a few pics to the group to vote on. As we open up, these ladies should be the first that you want to hang out with. I don't know what I would do without my "lovely divas" who challenge me, keep me going when I really don't want to, make me laugh, and I know who support and love me unconditionally. Thank you divas. As the world continues to change and evolve, it is my hope that we all continue to strive for wholeness; that we will connect and integrate all parts of ourselves, and endeavor to lift up and support other women. n encouraged to see many of my sisters coming together to uplift one another. 1.
