October has me thinking about the courage it takes to make a change, speak up or begin something new.

This month, GlowInto is celebrating women building businesses while making room for conversations about domestic violence awareness. These stories remind me how much it matters for women to be heard, supported and connected to help.

The women I meet keep showing me that courage takes many forms. Sometimes it’s opening a business. Sometimes it’s asking for support or setting a boundary.

Whatever this season holds for you, I hope you find something here that helps you feel less alone and more confident in your next step.

Remember…

Every woman has the opportunity to GlowInto who she is meant to be.

See you next month,
Jen
