Each March, we honor and remember all of the women who came before us. The women who worked to make this world a better place – more just, more fair, and more kind.

Women have changed the course of our history: From Abigail Adams, who was also known as “Mrs. President” for her unshakable efforts to help put our nation on the right path… to Sandra Day O’Connor, the first female member of the United States Supreme Court.

Many decades ago, there was no one who came before them to show the way. They had to be the ones to decide how to shatter the glass ceilings and make it possible for the women who came after them to follow suit and break even more new ground.

Today, our children are seeing more women in prominent, non-traditional jobs held by women. It is my hope that by the time their children are looking around them for career inspiration, it won’t be such a novelty to see a female CEO of a Fortune 500 company or even a female President of the United States.

Rather, they will believe that their goals can be limitless because women can achieve anything to which they aspire – and it will be proven true again and again.

As we celebrate Women’s History Month, I hope that each of you will take a moment to reflect on the women in your lives who have made lasting contributions to our South Florida community.

I would love to hear about these remarkable women. This month, you can submit your stories of incredible women you know – or just let us know what women’s history month means to you. You can let me know by e-mailing me here or on my facebook page.

Below you’ll find many interesting resources for you and your family to learn more about this important month. I hope you’ll take a moment to share your story! Thanks for honoring the women in our community, this month and all throughout the year.
