Can you live a life of showing people authentic kindness love everyday and do it fiercely? You bet your ass you can! I saw it with my own two eyes, felt it with my own one heart last week at the FIERCE women of the year awards last week.
The definition of SPARKLE is one that seems to be on the “softer” side I understand. It is one that people believe leaves little room for the tough stuff but the truth is, it is about bringing the GOOD in your life and leaving out nasty. Leaving out the catty. Those who try to come into your life with negative energy and bullshit gossip get deflected by your SPARKLE and they get that with a ferocity not matched by anything else!
The FIERCE Woman of the Year Awards 2012 were held at the River Cree Resort and Casino this year. It was our biggest, best, glitziest and badassiest (yes, I made that a word) event to date. There were so many women holding one another up, supporting and celebrating one another, the energy was palatable. This is when FIERCE meets SPARKLE!
Am I silly enough to believe there was no jealousy or bits of cattiness happening in quiet corners of the room? No, I’m not but what I am VERY aware of is the FIERCE community doesn't welcome it and it was bits and it happened in quiet corners.
It is not welcome and those particular people will not be there next year because they know their kind is not appreciated, celebrated or acknowledged.
This province is so blessed to have something like FIERCE Woman of the Year to look forward to; the SPARKLY realness, the fun and fabulousness.
I spoke to one woman, her name, Sabrina, who very recently lost her brother to suicide, told me “I have been hiding from the world when there is something like THIS out there. Celebrating people like ME. What am I doing?! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!”
You can give, you can take. You can be real...you can be YOU. You can be FIERCE and you can SPARKLE. Just DO.
Return to You Are FIERCE
