What does international women's day mean to you?
Marisa
To me it is a day to recognise and appreciate the amazing accomplishments that women have made. It is also a day to celebrate the unique strengths and perspectives that women can bring to the table. It is a reminder to respect and uplift each other, and to recognize that we all have something to contribute to the world. It is a day to reflect on how far we have come and to look towards the future of what more we can do to create a more equal and inclusive society.

International woman’s day makes me feel proud to be a woman. It’s a day to acknowledge and honour women around the world for the contributions they have made to our society. It is a day we are recognised for our commitments that we make not only in the workforce but in our homes.
What keeps you motivated everyday?
Marisa
One thing that keeps me motivated every day is having clear goals. I like to create a daily to-do list, this helps keep me on track and reminds me of the tasks I need to complete. Having a good support system of family and friends who encourage me and cheer me on provides an extra boost when I'm feeling stuck or unmotivated.
Kevina
Success in my home and business life keeps me motivated . Knowing that my hard work and perseverance will help me achieve things in my life , such as a successful business and a loving well balanced family. I never had much growing up and that motivates me to make my children’s life better than the life I had.
What does it mean to you to own a woman owned business in 2023?
To me, owning a women-owned business in 2023 means having the opportunity to create something meaningful and impactful. It means having the chance to build something that empowers other women.
Kevina
I feel very grateful to be part of a woman owned business. It gives me the opportunities that I may never have had. It just goes to show a woman owned business can be just as or more successful than a male owned business.
What should we be telling younger generations of women?
We should be inspiring them to be courageous and confident in their own skin. We should be reminding them that they are capable of making a positive impact no matter their background or race, they are capable of achieving their dreams.
Kevina
Don’t let anyone tell you can’t. If you want to do something to better yourself go out and get it. Don’t sit at home waiting for things to fall in your lap. No body has ever died from hard work.
The best piece of advice I've ever received is to never give up. No matter how hard a situation or challenge may be, with enough dedication and perseverance you can overcome it. Believe in yourself and don't be afraid to take risks and try new things.
Kevina
The best piece of advice I have ever had would have to be treat others the way you would like to be treated. Don’t sweat the little things and dreams remain dreams unless you do something about them.
We hope that all the incredible women who support The Lullaby Club take the time to reflect on their own achievements, what makes them women, and those who inspire them daily.
Stay tuned on our socials this week as we continue to celebrate all the beautiful and powerful women among us.
