Hello SitiGirl Cincinnati!! Can you believe we have finished the first quarter of 2025? What a journey it has been so far. Thank you for rocking with me these past 3 years. It has been an amazing journey and we are not even close to being finished yet! As we are closing out this last day of Women’s History Month, I want to take the time for a little reflection. As you take the time to read through the March issue of SitiGirl Cincinnati, it is my hope that you are encouraged and inspired.
As phenomenal as we are as wives, mothers, career women, aunts, sisters and friends, I want to take a moment to create space for our humanity as women. We get tired. We get discouraged. We need someone to pour into our empty cups. I want you to know you are seen. You are heard. You are loved and valued.
Hope Amidst the Storm
The weight is heavy, the road is long,
The days feel dim, the nights seem strong.
A thousand worries, a restless mind,
Seeking peace it cannot find.
The waves rise high, the winds will howl,
Doubt’s dark whispers start to prowl.
Yet in the chaos, a spark remains,
A whispered voice that still sustains.
“You’ve come this far, you will not break,
Each step you take, each breath you take.
Though storms may rage and shadows creep,
Hope still lingers, calm and deep.”
For even when the skies turn gray,
The sun still waits behind the fray.
And through the dark, you’ll find your way,
One small light, one brighter day.-Source Unknown
As we embark upon year 4 of SitiGirl Cincinnati, just know there is so much greater in store for both you and I. Just stay the course.
XOXOXO-Mariette
