In celebration of International Women’s Day, I asked several readers one question: “Who is the most inspirational woman in your life?” Read on for their beautiful tributes:
“The most inspiring woman in my life is my mother. Growing up, she worked full time, but still always found the time to be an attentive, involved, loving mother. She worked her way to the top in a male dominated field. She is the prime example of how hard work always pays off. She has always supported me and pushed me to be the best version of myself. I would not be the woman and mother I am today without her example.“
-Claire
“My mom is the most inspirational woman in my life because she’s the strongest, most resilient person I know. She raised me all on her own with no family to help after my Dad passed away, while still working a full-time job. She provided me with so many opportunities and I am forever grateful for her unending support and encouragement. She’s truly my hero!“
-Sara
“The most inspirational woman in my life is my Mom. She is one of the strongest people I know and I hope to be half the woman she is someday!“
-Kate
“My mom is the most inspirational woman in my life. Despite all of her health issues, she perseveres and makes sure to always be there for me, my sister, and my dad.“
-Jen
“The most inspirational woman in my life is my mom because she has taught me how to be a compassionate, motivated person while also giving me the room I needed to grow into who I am today. One of the most important jobs as a mother is to help her children grow into independent adults with their own identities, and my mom did just that while also being loving and supportive. Just like a caretaker of a plant, she was always there in case I needed anything, and she gave me everything I needed in just the right amount to help me bloom. She knows when to be strict, when to be kind, when to just listen, and even knows when to give me a reality check. Without her, I never would have become the woman I am today.“
