850: Why and How to Champion Other Women
Are you a high-five person?\xa0My husband and I spent a weekend with a couple years ago who high-fived each other all the time.\xa0After that weekend, my husband said to me, \u201cThey high-five a lot.\xa0We are just not high-five people.\u201d\xa0Don\u2019t get me wrong, we loved this couple.\xa0But we didn\u2019t think we would ever share their enthusiasm for high fives.\xa0\xa0\nWhat\u2019s ironic now is that I\u2019ve built an entire legacy around high-fiving women, more or less.\xa0When I think of high-fiving others it can look like a lot of things - a compliment, a congrats, a comment of support.\xa0When someone else high-fives me, literally or figuratively, it feels so good!\xa0\xa0\nIt takes almost nothing to be a cheerleader and champion of other women, yet it can make all the difference in the world.\xa0Think of how great it feels when someone shows up to let you know they are happy for you, impressed by you, or grateful for you.\xa0High-fives matter.\xa0\xa0\nWomen championing one another is a must.\xa0This is how we model to our children how women treat women.\xa0This is how we make space for other women in a world that, in many instances, doesn\u2019t make space for women.\xa0This is how we can see others and be seen ourselves.\xa0\xa0\nIn this episode, I share 6 ways you can champion other women in loud & proud ways, as well as quietly.\xa0After you listen in, think about how you can immediately go champion another woman by giving her that literal or figurative high-five to let her know, \u201cWe are in this together.\xa0I got you.\xa0I see you.\u201d\n\nWe love the sponsors that make this show possible!
