As an ESL teacher to adults, I have listened to many women's stories from around the world. Their search for freedom, equality, and justice is a common thread. I have recently been separated myself, after 30 years of marriage, and am discovering my own journey to self-empowerment. I really want to help women from around the world find their voices. I truly believe that change is in the wind. I'm hoping that this organization may be a catalyst, and I would like to be part of it.
