I had the honor and privilege to attend a women’s march in Laguna Beach California today. It was a bright, beautiful California morning and there was so much love in the air. I made a point of hugging many strangers and encouraging them to hug each other. This was about positivity, empowerment, encouragement and speaking truth to power. I found it hard for myself to stand in one place with a sign, so I wandered often taking photos and making my little joke that I ASKED FOR CONSENT FIRST :)
The most inspiring sight for me was the range in ages, from the very young to the very old, standing together. And all the support from those driving by, so many men honking in solidarity.
Please enjoy all the beautiful people I saw today. I was re-energized and felt that this was a powerful moment for all of us to remember that we can choose to speak, to demonstrate and to push back. We are powerful when we stand together.
