MY DEAR LADIES,
I am happy to introduce the first issue of WE Magazine - another part of our Women Empowerment Universe that will reinforce the work of the WE Council and WE Convention. Giving women a media platform to speak louder and shine brighter seemed like a logical step. We want more women to follow the light of female leaders and join our movement to become leaders themselves.
As a child and teenager, holding beautiful glossy magazines in my hands, I always dreamed of one day creating my own media. As a young professional, I also voraciously read business magazines, which told hundreds of stories about successful men and, very rarely, successful women. Deep inside, I protested, "How can this be? Are there really not enough stories of women's success in the world? Who should I look up to?"
Today WE Magazine is a tangible reminder for me that dreams do come true, that I should dream big and act even bigger. And now I know that WE Magazine will be the place where women can find the support and inspiration I so desperately needed ten years ago!
I want women who are building successful careers and businesses, and who strive for self-realization and leadership, to find illustrative examples and practical recipes for success. I also want prominent female leaders to serve as shining examples - showing that success can be achieved and illuminating the path for other women, giving them more beacons to follow. That's what WE Magazine is all about. Dear ladies, we share a very important mission: to achieve the greatest results, to shine as brightly as possible, and to generously share our recipes for success with other women - to illuminate their path and show them the Way. Because other women need us, just like you once needed a woman like you became today. Let's go, girls!
