The 113th US Congress will have 20 female senators, the most ever in U.S. history. I felt so grateful to see their faces on the news on Tuesday night. I feel so grateful that they chose to run. I feel grateful that they are willing to work within a dysfunctional system in order to serve.
Even as their numbers hit an all-time high, they are not high enough. 20% doesn’t represent the 51% of the population that we are. We need more women in government – and we need more diversity among them.
Part two of my conversation with Marianne Williamson on women running for office is here.
And on a very different note, visit here to read what I and many other fabulous women have to say about how we care for ourselves day to day. I loved reading the honest, interesting reflections here and I think you will too.
Love,

Hi Tara..I so appreciate your beautiful presence on this month’s Wise Woman Council and for sharing the link..
Knowing intuitively what works for you, and creating a daily devotional practice makes such a difference. I think of these practices as the Daily Essentials. They anchor us..fill us up.. and keep us from breaking our own hearts.
Thank you.
Love and blessings,
Lisa
