The Women Who Inspire Us

International Women's Day (March 8) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. In celebration of this day, the Rocky team shared who the most inspirational woman in their lives are. Beautiful words ensued…

“My best friend Kait is the most inspirational woman in my life. Not only does she inspire me to set goals in both my personal and professional life. But she is always there for support or to lend a helping hand while achieving those goals. I couldn't ask for a better best friend” - Kendra, Store Manager

“The most inspirational woman in my life is my best friend/practically Sister, Erin. She constantly amazes me with her perseverance and her commitment to kindness. I have always been the hot-headed one, and she is always there to remind me to show compassion. We have known each other since childhood, and we've hit ups and downs, but she never lets the world make her angry or mistrustful. She remains one of the strongest and most compassionate souls I've ever met”- Lucy, Rocky Retail Team Extraordinaire

“My mom was a working woman, a chauffeur, soccer coach, soccer mom, therapist, friend, entertainer, chef, maid; the list goes on forever. It took me a really long time to really appreciate what my mom has done, and continues to do for me. Life didn't pan out the way she had planned. Not for one second would I blame my mom for the way it panned out. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be the woman I am today! My mom is my super hero, my best friend and so much more. If she could see herself through my eyes, she'd say the same thing! For everything she's gone through, she has become and continues to be such a strong woman, and I am so inspired to be as strong and encouraging as she is one day. I know she doesn't see any of these qualities in herself, so I would love to the world to see and recognize the truly amazing woman she is! I love you, Mom” - Taegan, Store Manager

Happy International Women’s Day, everyone.
