#IWD2019 is all about encouraging and empowering every woman to show the world what an amazing, smart and unstoppable force she is. Wherever you are, whatever you do—this is the day of the year where women get to have the voice that they deserve every day. To show our support and love for all the kick-butt ladies out there, we’re bringing you the stories of some truly incredible women that we’re honored to work with as a brand.
This week leading up to International Women’s Day, we’re highlighting women who inspire, empower and impact their community every day. Our Insta’s getting a dose of girl power, and we are so excited about it. But that’s not all. We reached out to these fantastic women and asked them a few questions about what International Women’s Day means to them.

Tell us about a way you strive to empower other women.

What, to you, is the best part of being a woman in 2019?
“We have a stronger voice. While we still have a long way to go, women are able to express their opinions and thoughts, and can publicly voice them. Creating these movements that unite not only women, but people from all over the world for change, is amazing! We must keep voicing our opinions!”
