Power of Voice

It never ceases to amaze me; the profound changes that happen in the body when we find our voice.

When we no longer are willing to remain silent, when we are freed by the bounds that we put ourselves in and can express the words that are our authentic truth.

In that moment, in that declaration of your story, your truth; Power Resides.

As I've had the opportunity to hear women in the past year form words to their truth, they claim part of their power back.

As I listen to women tell the stories of where they have come from, about what the believe in, and how they choose to live, I see the light shining in their eyes.

As I see a woman brazenly stand before an audience of many and unabashedly tell her truth, her story, in a way that is deeply meaningful to her, unashamed of the tears, demanding to be seen.... I am profoundly moved, the power in that is felt by the room.

Eyes open up. People awaken. The world changes.
