As March Closes, Celebrate our Wins

 

As we approach the end of Women's. History month, I am happy to share women who have been role models or inspired me. Two weeks ago I used the term Shero. Now I want to share a woman many have been inspired by.  Our vice President, Kamala Harris.  She broke the glass ceiling when she was elected.  I am happy to have a woman in the White house.   

Kamala Harris: “I may be the first woman to hold this office. But I won’t be the last.”




 
 
 
 
Panda Wear 2022 Spring line debuts this week.  Exciting and celebratory is how I describe my creation of the pieces in this group. There is a give away on social media so please spread the word.  You have a sneak peak here with this one photo. May the line show the beauty I find in Spring every year.

It has been two years since Daniel Prude tragically  lost his life in Rochester.  I invite everyone to be kind and support our sisters and brothers.   We need to teach history accurately all year.  Support families who have lost loved ones like the Prude Family.  

Say his name,  Daniel Prude.

Hello Sping 2022

Welcome to Spring 2022 in my corner of the world.  We have snow in the forecast for this week and my garden is fighting with all it has to show off in spite of the forecast.  The Spring Equinox arrived Sunday morning here in Rochester, NY.  I was so happy to see it arrive.  I had a countdown this month on social media.

This is one of the crocus clusters in my backyard garden.  I am enjoying the shape of the blossoms this year. I find myself looking at this differently after dealing with the pandemic for the past two years. 

 How has you view changed?




 As you may know, I am an avid gardener.  Both flowers and vegetables.  Most of my flowers are perennials because they show off without much outside assistance.  I prefer to spend the worm months enjoying all of what outside has to offer.   

The seedlings are doing well.  Happy to say some will be planted the end of this month. My first plants in the dirt are peas and lettuce.  They are the most hardy of my vegetables.   This is 2021 Celery that wanted to see 2022. Sometimes the prior growing season continues under the snow and peaks out after the thaw.

Women's History Month 2022

My questions for you this year:

  1. How will Women's history month change how you do business?
  2. Who are your role models?  
  3. How do you inspire others?   

Sheroes who Inspire Me 

Two women who have inspired me are Sharon Nelson and Irma McClaurin. I could attempt write short biographies about them but that would be almost impossible.  My focus is on them as Sheroes.  I met Sharon in the summer of 2018, about 3.5 years ago. It feels like I have know her for much longer.  She  has a tenacity and spirit I instantly connected with.   It is rare to meet a women and know you will be friends. My favorite program is the Candidate Training Class. 

 Sharon Nelson

 


I met Irma McClaurin in 2019.  She was co chair of Seneca Falls Revisited: Womens Equality Weekend  in Rochester in 2018.  I attended the conference but did not personal meet her until the 2019 event in Saratoga Springs.  She is a leader, visionary, and fantastic lady. Take time and read some of the incredible things she has written.  Stop, take the time, & broaden your mind.            
 Irma McClaurin
