Over the last few decades, I know when I was growing up, the girl boss era was in full swing.
It's kind of dying down a little bit right now because people are realizing maybe that's not my end game is girl bossing so hard.
And by the way, I girl boss, so I'm not saying girl bossing is bad.
I mean, girl boss and that, use your talents to the fullest extent you can, you know, for the good of others, you hope, right, is the goal.
But also embrace marriage and motherhood.
And yeah, there's going to be seasons where you work, you have to pull back.
I travel far less than I did when I didn't have my young children.
But I think that there needs to be, for women, a better vision for ourselves.
And I would say this is true for men existentially, too, to some degree in our culture.
I think we're very tired.
We're at war with each other.
We have been for some time, the sexes.
And we've lost a sense of identity about what a woman even is.
And you can make a joke about this, of course, with the transgender issue and confusion around biological womanhood.
But what does it mean to be a woman?
And I would say the most unique thing about a woman versus a man is that ability uniquely in its own womanly way versus this masculine way to bring life into the world.
And that's not always going to be biological because not every woman is called a biological motherhood.
But I think a mature woman ultimately is going to be called to some sort of
emotional or spiritual mothering of others.
Same for a man, a fathering of others.
