Listen in as we enjoy one another’s company (scoring high on the Bechdel test, although we’re not on film!), laugh about mistakes, continue after correcting them … and just by hitting “record,” validate the importance of one another’s voices.
We talk about the fear of being seen & allowing our voices to be heard.
We discuss the empowerment of climbing trees & introduce two powerful influences for good in our lives, one who loved Barney the purple dinosaur and one who appreciated the play Cyrano de Bergerac. We touch on what it’s like to be labeled and marginalized as women and girls.
(The word we were looking for was counter-cultural. Women speaking at all is counter-cultural.)
