Happy International Women’s Day!

I could write a piece about some of the great women through history, or even today, but I want to address ALL you women that may be feeling less than. If you don’t feel like a great woman most of the time, then read on, this may just help. Even if you feel amazing, you may enjoy the challenges.

Great Women are not born, they are made. They are made through the adversities they face, the struggles, the highs and the lows. But all women have greatness in them, they just need to discover it.

To be a great woman doesn’t require a load of shit happening to you, but rather how you deal with the stuff that happens for you. All things that we face, we face for a reason. There are lessons to be learned, choices to be made and contrast to be experienced. It doesn’t always feel good, in fact it often feels blooming awful. But, all those things you have experienced, and are still experiencing, are shaping you into the woman you are today and the one you will be tomorrow.

So what type of woman are you? Hint, there is no wrong answer here and this list is not exhaustive. You may even fall into more than one category. But have a read and see if you can accept my challenge for you!
