As we close the month of March, we spotlight the strength, resilience, and impact of women in psychology. 💜

“As a woman in the field of psychology, I have witnessed both the resilience and the silent struggles that many women and girls carry. This year’s theme, Rights. Justice. Action., reminds us that empowerment goes beyond words it calls for intentional action in how we listen, support, and advocate.

Through my work, I am committed to creating safe spaces where women and girls feel heard, valued, and empowered to reclaim their narratives. True change happens when we move from awareness to action—challenging stigma, promoting equity, and standing together to advance the rights of every woman and girl.

Our voices, individually and collectively, have the power to transform lives and shape a more just society.” ✨

A study in South Africa explored how loadshedding affected small business owners and found that;

Small business cannot function without electricity leading to lower income and unstable work routines.

The electricity situation leads to financial setbacks that spill over into family life; inability to meet household needs, send money home, or maintain their previous living standards.

Anger is not bad, it is a powerful emotional signal that alerts an individuals to perceived injustice, threat, or unmet needs.

As a signal, it helps one to recognize when personal boundaries have been crossed or when important values are being violated.

What one needs to do is Acknowledge this emotion and channel it into purposeful problem-solving and positive social action.
