Talk it Out with Women Like Us
Welcome to our blog page.
This is where we discuss, share, comment and simply come together for the future of woman kind. We’ll be sharing articles and information that you may find interesting and maybe give you a new perspective or at least get you thinking…You’ll find updates on the Women Like Us Center and our women’s work there, what futures as women look like for all of us and in general, simply women’s work and women’s words and opinions that represent the character, courage and confidence of us all.
I hope you’ll comment, contribute and share to your community of women as we come together for a better world.
Blessings,
Linda Rendleman, CEO/Founder
