Editors Note October/November 2024

Celebrating Courageous Women In our lives, courageous women shine brightly, embodying resilience and strength. They remind us that true bravery isn’t the absence of fear; it’s the determination to forge ahead despite it. In this special edition of 5ive for Women, we honor those who inspire us to navigate life’s challenges with authenticity and grace.
As I reflect on my own journey over the past three years, I am incredibly proud of how my family has navigated the challenges of divorce. It has been a time of growth, both for me and my fabulous five children, who have walked through grief and change alongside me. Together, we have learned that it takes immense courage and strength to stand tall and share our experiences, embracing vulnerability as a source of connection rather than a weakness. Courage often reveals itself when we confront difficulties head-on. Life throws obstacles our way, but the women we admire show us that surrender is not an option. They rise, drawing strength from their faith, family, and friends, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth. Speaking the truth is another vital aspect of courage, especially when it comes to having difficult conversations. It takes bravery to address uncomfortable topics, whether in our personal relationships or professional environments.
Courageous women don’t shy away from these challenging discussions; instead, they engage with empathy and honesty. In my own life, I’ve realized that avoiding tough conversations can lead to misunderstandings and resentment. By choosing to address issues head-on, we foster deeper connections and create a culture of openness and trust. Moreover, these women exemplify the strength to refrain from gossip and negativity. When faced with conversations that veer into unproductive territory, they courageously choose to shut it down, steering the dialogue towards positivity and understanding. They recognize that gossip can be damaging and counterproductive, undermining the very relationships they seek to nurture. By modeling this behavior, they not only protect their own integrity but also inspire others to elevate their conversations. Patience is a form of courage that often goes unnoticed. In today’s fast-paced world, waiting for our dreams to materialize can be daunting. Yet, courageous women teach us that perseverance is essential. They remind us to trust the journey, embracing each step with resilience and grace. Moreover, the courage to fail is something we must all learn to embrace. Fear of failure can be paralyzing, but courageous women encourage us to take risks and hustle with determination. They show us that every setback is a chance to learn and grow, leading us to greater success. As Gary Zukav states in Seat of the Soul, our intentions shape our reality. The courageous women we celebrate here live with purpose, reminding us that the energy we put out into the world comes back to us. Maya Angelou once said, “The cost is high, but the reward is great.” The journey of a courageous woman may be filled with trials, but the rewards—personal growth and the ability to uplift others—are invaluable. In this edition of 5ive for Women, let us honor those courageous women who inspire us to embrace our own strength. I am proud of my own journey and the growth my children and I have experienced together. May our stories motivate us to speak our truths, engage in difficult conversations, remain patient, accept failures, and hustle with intention. Together, let’s create a community where we uplift and empower one another, celebrating the incredible courage that resides within us all. The Journey continues in Faith, Family, Friends, Fitness and Finace.
