In honor of Women's History Month, SMPR has taken a moment to reflect on the remarkable women who have shaped our lives and history. Our team took the opportunity to share our favorite quotes from women who inspire them, each quote resonating deeply within our diverse group. 

Heidi: “Create the highest, grandest vision possible for your life because you become what you believe.” - Oprah

Ladayna: “Fight the big fights. Don't fight the little fight... Be the first one in, be the last one out. Do your homework, choose your battles.” - Barbara Walters

Lauren: "The woman’s soul is fashioned as a shelter in which other souls may unfold.”- Edith Stein

Lexie: “The goal for any well-lived life is to continue learning, to continue evolving, to continue to learn new things. To not begrudgingly go along with the change but to embrace it and to lead it." - April Salter

Vanessa: “If you've got it, flaunt it. And if you don't got it? Flaunt it. 'Cause what are we even doing here if we're not flaunting it?”  - Mindy Kaling

Kaitlyn: "Women belong in all places where decisions are being made. It shouldn't be that women are the exception."  - Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Erin: “It’s not about being perfect. It’s not about where you get yourself in the end. There’s power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice.”- Michelle Obama

Savannah: “The only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work hard for them.”- Michelle Obama

As we celebrate the accomplishments of these extraordinary women, we are reminded of the ongoing journey towards greater diversity and inclusivity. By amplifying diverse voices and perspectives, we pave the way for a more equitable future. 

This Women's History Month, let us continue to challenge the status quo, champion inclusivity, and empower women to thrive in every sphere of life. Together, we can create an industry—and a world—that celebrates the contributions of all individuals, today and every day.
