A sneak peak into my brain on International Women’s Day.
For my team and I, much of our work centres around helping people feel supported, respected and able to thrive. International Women’s Day is an important moment to recognise the contributions, leadership and strength of women, but it’s also a time to reflect on the values we want to carry forward.
For me, that reflection is both professional and personal. As a mother raising a daughter and a son, I often find myself thinking about the kind of world they will grow up in, and the values they will carry into it.
My daughter is bold, expressive and full of confidence. She’s not afraid to make her point or take up space.
My son, on the other hand, is calm, steady and quietly thoughtful. He often meets that same energy with patience and a sense of humour.
Watching them together reminds me how important it is that we nurture both confidence and empathy; that we raise girls who know their worth and boys who value and respect the strength in others.
At Psyche MHC, our work is grounded in the belief that people thrive in environments where they feel valued, supported and psychologically safe. Those same values matter just as much in the way we raise the next generation.
Today I’m celebrating the women who lead, advocate, care and inspire, and feeling hopeful about the world the next generation will help shape.
