March 8 is Internation Women's Day devoted to celebrating the achievements of women and seeking gender equality.
The theme this year is break the bias - and campaigners are urging people to call out gender stereotyping and discrimination when they see it.
It would be remised of me to not thank the women who made it possible for me to have a voice in this world. I can't imagine not having the opportunity to do what I love because of my gender. Now if the gap could be filled for race equality, it'd make the world a better place. But I digress.
Lastly but not least, words from the wise Maya Angelou,
“I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.”
Happy International Women's Day from Author Tasha Hutchison
