Show Notes

Hello to you listening in Sacramento, California!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.

My friend and colleague Charlotte Wittenkamp, the Bridge Builder, writes a regular column on the LinkedIn platform entitled: What I Read Today offering a piece from the media along with her astute insights and questions about the article.

In like mind here is what I read today and adapted from the novel, Iona Iverson’s Rules for Commuting by Clare Pooley:

If you give up, they win.

They want us to be small, so we have to stand tall.

They want us to be invisible, so we have to be seen.

They want us to be silent, so we have to be heard.

They want us to surrender, so we have to show them who we are, what we’re made of, what we can do so that we win for the good!

Story Prompt: When have you decided not to give up? What happened next?  Write that story?
