Message from Tsion:
“AWiB is a unique space that gives us an opportunity to consider and discuss topics and ideas we rarely do elsewhere. I have found that these conversations are ones that can help shape future generations, encouraging us to sit in our discomfort as we grow and evolve as women, and men. While each of us is unique with different living experiences, we are all part of a collective that shapes our reality. I see AWiB as an invaluable and rare platform that can support us to build community, and more specifically as women, to build sisterhood.
Congratulations to Tsion!
Here’s to the voyage ahead—Godspeed!
