March 19 Edition
We salute the incredible and inspirational women out there while celebrating International Women's Day this month. It's the perfect way to remind super women everywhere how multitalented and strong they all are!
Highlights
You couldn't get more inspirational than our Prime Minister, The Right Honourable, Jacinda Ardern
Not only did Jacinda take on leadership of the Labour Party, she didn't stop there. By taking on the role to lead our country, she became the world's youngest female head of government, at age 37. Giving birth to a daughter on 21 June 2018, Jacinda became the world's second elected head of government to give
birth while in office. How does this multi tasking, inspirational powerhouse manage to do two of the most important roles at the same time?
