In the mess of all this disconnect and uncertainty, we are reminded that we were never meant to do any of this alone, especially the things that require the biggest courage—staying connected in a pandemic, building businesses while parenting, staying true to our own mental health while breaking glass ceilings for our children.

Sisters, mothers, best friends, and daughters, or anyone who identifies this way, this day is for you.

This day is about joy, pain, tears, and reconnection as we remind each other, the day before Mother’s Day, that we are, indeed, braver together.
