Sundays are the perfect time to work on making yourself whole. 🌸 Oprah rocked the @womenintheworld summit. Of course, women can save the world, but we must first save ourselves. “It is your job to make yourself whole, not perfect, but whole and full. Your real work in life is to fill yourself 'til your cup runneth over so that you're never grasping and needy, clamoring and insecure." #Oprah #Oprah2020 #WITW #sunday
How will you spend your spring break? Here are some great ideas from Rachel Suggs, high school mentor *** - Hello lovely ladies, 🌺 🌸🌻 Spring break for many students is just around the corner, and it is a perfect opportunity to allocate time to female-powered activities. Here is an idea. You can take a trip to the Connecticut State Capitol and pay a visit to the statue of our state’s heroine herself, Ms. Prudence Crandall. She founded the first American school for African-American girls over 150 years ago. Or, you can find a friend and collaborate on a creative project together. Work with each other to create something that didn’t exist yesterday, such as a drawing, poem, dance number, or short story. The world needs your creativity, and there is nothing better than two girls working together towards a common goal. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, see if you can volunteer at your local women’s shelter. These shelters provide basic care for women that cannot afford it for themselves, such as a place to sleep. They could have left an abusive home life or simply be down on luck, so be as warm and as generous as you can. If you can’t donate your time, donate basic necessities that the women need. For example, see if you have spare soap, shampoo, and especially feminine hygiene products. However you choose to spend your break, remember to prioritize yourself and your mental recovery from school. My preferred method of a mental-break is to put on some Beyonce and dance around my room. You can literally dance like nobody's watching, because no one is! Savor this time where you don’t need to perform anything for critique or produce anything substantial. Let the “Lemonade” album be your muse, or substitute any female singer-songwriter of your choice. You can also curl up with a good book and let the day slip away from the world of literature. My favorite book for this effect is “Eleanor and Park” by Rainbow Rowell. You’ll be back at school again in no time, so while you’re busy learning about the world, take care of yourself so that you don’t lose your drive to change it. Happy spring break, everyone! Love, Rachel #springbreak

We can’t wait to read Abby Wambach's new book, “Wolfpack”! Have you read it? Inspired by her Barnard College commencement speech, retired soccer superstar Abby Wambach applies the lessons of failure and triumph that she learned on the field to rewrite the rules for girls and women. Lessons like, “Make failure your fuel.” Old Rule: Failure means you’re out of the game. New Rule: Failure means you’re finally IN the game. #Wolfpack #WeAreTheWolfpack #AbbyWambach #Booksthatinspire
LiveGirl is thrilled to again partner with the @carriagebarnartscenter for its second annual arts exhibit, Art of Being A Girl, a celebration of female power and the arts.

You matter. And your voice matters. ✊🏽 These ladies are working hard to make positive change on issues such as equal pay, family medical leave, sexual harassment, breastfeeding in the workplace, gender identify harassment, and more. Rise and let your voice be heard!! State Representative Caroline Simmons shared her favorite quote by JK Rowling, which is our #MondayMotivation. "It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.” - JK Rowling Thank you to Kate Farrar, Executive Director @cwealf, CT State Representative Caroline Simmons, and Laura Smits, League Of Women Voters of Connecticut for teaching these young women the importance of advocacy and raising their voices. #yourvoicematters #youmatter #girlsleadership #ct
