What difference can I make? I’m just one woman!

What difference can I make? I’m just one woman!

What difference can I make? Joan, 35, feels dis-empowered about the state of the world, but tells me that she is a ‘lone wolf.’ She questions how she can help the world alone?
The point is if that we all thought that way, we would not get anywhere. We can, and should, all focus on the difference we can make – be that helping a child, mentoring a younger woman, guiding a female colleague who is trying to make her way in a male-dominated career. The possibilities are endless.

Rise Up Sisters. The Time has come!

We have to:

• Take our place more dominantly on the world stage
• Be more involved in key strategic decisions affecting nations and the world
• Have a louder voice in everything we do
• Band together to eradicate inequality (over time)
• Reduce the incidence of domestic violence
• Stand together, united, to create a better world, free of the crap that happens today

The world needs equality, collaboration, true belief that we can make a difference and help turn our troubled world around, direction and vision, allegiance and solidarity.

How you can make a difference

• Become a Coach or Mentor of younger woman who are unsure, uncertain and need guidance
• Start a Group or Forum to work with Youth
• Join or start a Women’s Network to focuses on community development
• Be part of a community that helps disadvantaged people

Talk is Cheap. It’s going to take Action…. a lot of it!

There’s no point in the ‘tut-tut’ brigade, as I call it. Tut-tut the modern day youth are out of control, or tut-tut the drug epidemic is killing our teens, even, tut-tut women get nowhere in business.
No more tut-tuts! Action. What are we women going to do?
