Prologue
March 8th is International Women’s Day. Much work remains to create a level playing field. The pandemic is another reminder that women are disproportionately displaced economically. Society needs to continuously conjure up new definitions like glass ceiling, unconscious bias, and she-session to document the the gender imbalance. And so on this day, Chad and I are grateful to be surrounded by the strong women in our lives.
To our Spouses, we are blessed to support your ascent to the pinnacle of your profession. Everyday, we witness how you wear multiple hats and deal with unique struggles as boss, wife, mother, and daughter.
To our Daughters, we are grateful for the opportunity to be involved parents. We hope to provide you the inspiration to dream big and be the next Kamala Harris or Dr. Bonnie Henry.
To our Moms, we are beginning to understand the effort it takes to raise a family (and in a foreign country to boot). We hope to live up to the depths of your hard work for us.
To our all-female Bookkeeping Team , we are grateful to provide a second wind in your lives. Having given your careers a backseat to raise a family, we are grateful to transfer skills such as work-ethic and dedication into the workplace.
To our women clients, we are blessed to work with such intelligent women in our lives. While we are retained as your advisors, we are equally grateful to learn about successful entrepreneurship from you.
Much like the celebration of Black History Month, social progress starts with dialogue and International Women’s Day has given us the reason to expand our knowledge on bigger issues. We are grateful that #IWD2021 provided another catalyst to become more involved in supporting the women in our lives. Thank you and we hope the upcoming content will assist Women Entrepreneurs.
