Gloria Steinem

“Real change grows like a tree, from the bottom up.”

My dear friend and author Amy Richards (Manifesta: Young Women, Feminism, and the Future and Opting In: Having a Child Without Losing Yourself) invited me to an event with feminist, journalist, social / political activist and trailblazer Gloria Steinem, who at 81 sat down for a conversation with actress Melissa McCarthy to promote her new book My Life on the Road. Not surprisingly the evening was inspiring, funny and empowering, but what struck me most was Gloria Steinem’s humble and generous spirit. She summed it up best when she said, “We are all human beings.” I am grateful to have so many talented female friends like Amy and to women like Gloria Steinem who stood up and fought for equality and justice for all.
