The fact that you are here means that you are already engaged in supporting, encouraging and helping other women & girls. THANK YOU for all that you do. If you do not feel ready to share a story today, we hope you will read some of the stories others have shared and return whenever you are ready to publish one of yours.
On World Storytelling Day, 2020, we launched a bi-weekly Twitter Chat – #ThePowerOfStories – believing in the power of stories to uplift, encourage and inspire. We hope you will join us and share your perspectives on the various topics we cover. We are @SayItForwardNow on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, and we look forward to hearing from you!
