March is a month for us to celebrate women, as we honor both Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day.
As a Vaulter and member of our Women in Technology Employee Resource Group (ERG), I recently had the great honor and privilege to lead a group of students at San Diego City College for the «City Women Rock» Conference to celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8th. The conference is designed to ignite, inspire, empower, and uplift students – many of whom face significant adversity, such as overcoming challenges of poverty, domestic and gang-related violence, and personal hardships. During the conference, our local community came together to share stories of triumph, reflecting on the many achievements of women throughout history and providing a blueprint for not only achieving goals, but lifting up others along the way. «City Women Rock»s’appuie sur les stratégies clés suivantes pour donner aux femmes les moyens d’atteindre leurs objectifs :
- La pratique de la gratitude
- Tenir un journal
- Privilégier le bien-être personnel
- Exprimer ses rêves
- Se fixer des objectifs
- Positive affirmations
- Asking for help
- Transforming fear into fuel
- Overcoming self-limiting beliefs
Ces stratégies trouvent un véritable écho en moi, et j’ai eu l’honneur d’intervenir lors de cette conférence pour en dire plus à ce sujet et partager mon histoire personnelle : comment j’ai surmonté un trouble alimentaire, une addiction et une faible estime de soi au début de mon adolescence. Ces épreuves m’ont finalement conduite vers un parcours de 15 ans marqué par la guérison, la transformation et l’épanouissement. Je peux dire avec fierté que j’en suis sortie avec un amour de soi inébranlable et une confiance intérieure solide. La mise en œuvre de ces changements positifs m’a permis de devenir la femme, la mère, la fille, la sœur, l’amie et la dirigeante que j’ai toujours voulu être.
I’m so thankful for my local community and the opportunities that organizations like City Women Rock provide to women to allow us to be our best selves. I’m also grateful for my Vaulter community and our Women in Technology ERG. This ERG brings together both women and allies to elevate and advance gender equality in technology and celebrate the inspiring women of Commvault who are driving our innovation and growth every day.
We all have personal stories to share of strength, stability and overcoming adversity. As we continue to celebrate women throughout March, let’s remember the importance of empowering ourselves and others to uplift, inspire and encourage each other to achieve GREATNESS.
