92: Lifting Up Our Sisters Who Need Us (with Holly Christine Hayes)
“When we lift up a woman, we lift up humanity,” says Melinda French Gates. And she’s 100% right—because when women are supported, when they’re given opportunities to run their lives and their careers and their families, it makes the entire world flourish. We can definitely see that in the work of our guest this week, Holly Christine Hayes. Holly is the founder and CEO of Sanctuary Project, a nonprofit social enterprise employing and empowering women who’ve survived lives of trafficking, violence, and addiction. Holly and Emily talk about the amazing way Holly turned her painful story into purpose, how women can lead other women well, and how we can each lift up other women in our own circles of influence. Because when a village of women comes together, there isn’t a more mighty force for good in the world.
(And PS: if you haven’t seen the jewelry that Sanctuary makes, run to their website, because you’ll want to give pieces to your mom, your sister, and all your friends — it’s so delicate and beautiful)
