What about those women who had great plans …. about to run tests on a new product that they created but now unable to; millions of dollars in research quite possibly gone down the drain.

Become more aware of what is really important. In this moment we are all on a leveled playing field that gives us a glimpse of what is truly important.

Tishan grew up in Kingston under the nurturing of a single mom whom she describes as the hardest working woman she has ever seen. Little wonder working hard was her way of life from early which makes it hard for her to identify with individuals who slack off on the job.

I can now only wish you much love and light as together we continue to forge ahead with an understanding that we must play our part as women in the continued fight for equality and a platform that allows us to be heard.
It is not a feminist stance but one where we fight for our dignity and power and recognition in the spaces we occupy because we know that we are just as or more capable of impacting and changing our reality for the better for all.
