To have a successful career in today’s world, women need to be able to work together, support one another and encourage one another, rather than compete against one another. We may not say this often enough, but we do need you, our sisters, to be there to help us get to the finish line.
Life transitions shouldn’t be left up to us alone.
It is crucial for a healthy, well-lived life to be in touch with sisters during life’s transitions, or even small ones.
We should have a gang of sisters waiting to offer us help for our wedding or give us advice when we have our first child. In times of mourning, they may even offer words of encouragement. The same goes for going on a job interview or starting your own business. If we experience a setback, a failure, or require someone to lend a shoulder to cry on, who is always there to assist us? A Sista!
In my opinion, sometimes we forget what sisterhood is just because we don’t stop long enough to just be. In my experience, our sisters are the ones who accept us with all of our flaws, they are the ones we turn to when we feel we are doubtful, and they are the ones that will be there when that 2:00am phone call comes to them and their first question is, “Where are you?”
So, I ask you in the realm of your own life what does sisterhood means to you because at the end of the day, no matter what is going on, we all need to remember what it means to be in a sisterhood. It is inevitable that we will fall from time to time in life and it is important to recognize that none of us are I immune to this fact. As much as admitting that you need help sometimes is not a failure, it is a failure to refuse it when you need it.
I had a moment when I felt like I failed a few weeks ago, however, my “Step Shifters” sisters, which is a group of women who are committed to walking, running, and being healthy, and we share a commitment to work together to accomplish that, turned that moment into an opportunity.
It was transformed into a Selfie Self-Love Saturday at the selfie museum.
We are fortunate to have people in our lives who show us love when we need it the most. Saturday’s Self-Love was like HEALING for my soul.
