Gender Equity: Knowing Power
Times change.
Twenty years ago today Nancy Pelosi became the first ever female speaker of the US Congress.
One of this woman’s most famous aspirations tells us a great deal about the world we live in: “I really want women to know their power ……”
I was a midwife for 31 years and I also want women to know their true female power, both what it is and, just as importantly, what it isnt.
Making life work is all about balance.
This truth about men also holds for women.
Lest We Forget.
All Of Us.
