Ways We Can Support Other Women


Celebrate successes

Imagine how incredible it would be if we all began supporting one another and encouraging each other. Let's start celebrating one another's successes and don't forget to celebrate your own.


Help others connect

If you meet someone and think about how great it would be if someone you know collaborated with them, make the introduction.


Support small businesses

Buy from female run small businesses and/or give them a shout out on social media. Let them know you love what they’re making . 


Start a group

Find like minded women, maybe in the same industry or other small business owners, and have regular get togethers. Get to know them and share your ideas, projects, struggles, pain points, etc.


Be honest

It takes courage to be open and honest about who you are and what you’re going through. The ironic part is … most women will understand but we often hesitate to because we’re scared others might judge you. Well they might, but they probably will support and understand you.


Check in with them

Reach out to see how everyone is doing and if there's any way you can assist them—perhaps a mention on Instagram or simply a conversation. As humans, we all desire to feel included and that our voices are heard, so let them know they're on your mind and that they're important in your life. 


Ask how you can help

If you're stuck on how you can help or encourage someone else, ask them! Maybe they won't know the answer themselves either; but it means a lot to just offer.
