Gender equality is 300 years away according a to the latest estimates from the UN. Not exactly the way I wanted to celebrate International Women’s Day. Instead, I wanted to lie in a dark room and sob.

Being a resilient, assertive woman I decided to take a different approach. Instead, why don't we elevate women who are forging change, so today I asked several people about their thought on gender equality. Here are a select few that bolstered my belief in humanity:

“I’ll take that as a challenge.” - Secondary School Principal

“Try not to see it as a huge issue, just do stuff everyday in the space where you do have influence.” - Government Manager

"Keep being you, no matter what and the world will change with you, albeit one step at a time." - Board Member

“Women in the board room is the answer.” - Recruitment Consultant

“Unapologetically choose your identity and happiness.”- Business Owner

“It will be interesting to see how our definition gender equality changes over time, as we redefine what it means.” - CEO

“…300 years? Not if my daughter has anything to do with it.” - Me

Keep going, diamonds are forged by fire.
We can make a difference every day.
