It’s Sunday an typically on a Sunday I would be home about now and getting in from a playground or kid-centric activity. Not today!! I am here in New York City. The city that I worn born in and called home for 18 years of my young life. Here I am listing to the Social Good Summit. Listening to how important it is that WOMEN COUNT AND ARE COUNTED!!
I almost didn’t come today because I was worried about Hayley’s recent (well extra) mommy clinginess but my WONDERFUL husband pushed me and told me I MUST go because he knew how important it was for me to come here. Johnson & Johnson went out of their way to make sure I was able to get here for a while and get home in time to get home for dinner with the family!
I am now in a room filled with so many people that want to change the world. I look around and think HOW DID I GET HERE???
Then I realize…I am here because I NEED to be here!!
We all NEED to join the global conversation. We need to focus on the world, world health, maternal and infant health, we need to be sure that GIRLS know their worth and their values.
WE NEED to make sure that WOMEN COUNT AND ARE COUNTED!!!
So….here I am, in the auditorium listening to Graca Machel telling us we must NOT leave any woman behind!! More to come………
