Today, we celebrate International Women's Day, a day to honor the achievements and contributions of women in all spheres of life. But more than that, it is a day to remind ourselves of our worth, our strength, and our potential. Too often, we women are our own worst critics. We doubt ourselves, we downplay our successes, we compare ourselves to others, and we forget how amazing we are. We don't give ourselves enough credit for the challenges we overcome, the goals we pursue, and the impact we make. For more see https://lnkd.in/eM39SgUJ
