I've always worn my heart on my sleeve.  And yes, the sleeve gets tattered at times. And I've scared people off with my exuberance.  And I've cried myself to sleep when my passionate words aren't returned. But I've found that it takes far more energy to live in silence. To keep those words from leaping off my tongue.  And I'd rather send my energy outwards, into the world where it can circle and dance and uplift the spirits of those brave enough to receive my words, accept their truths and hopefully send some love of their own on into the world.  It takes bravery to live without regret and "what ifs"  And I want to brave. Even if it comes across as stupid and reckless at times.​

I’m sure a lot of you out there feel the same way as I do, about women making the first move .  Quite honestly, I am tired of a system where women have to wait around for men to initiate a conversation or ask them out. It’s sad that there is still a social stigma and judgement around this when it comes to women being forward and outspoken, especially with dating. I dream of a world that empowers every woman to make connections in love, her life, and in her career without inhibitions. What started as my own resolution to tackle the inequalities around me, has today become the way I respond to situations and surroundings. For that, I have my friends, family and colleagues to thank.  Women should feel confident to make the first move in all areas of their lives , and we, as women need to empower one another to do so.  How many of you would make the first move?
