A personal reflection on the inspirational characteristics of trailblazing women
By Jackie van Niekerk, CEO, Attacq
As we enter the month dedicated to celebrating women, I am inspired by the diverse achievements of trailblazing women who have paved the way for progress and equality. Their courage and determination empower us all. Reflecting on the unique strengths of all women, I am filled with admiration for their ability to create life and serve as pillars of strength for their families and communities.
In my own life my grandmother stands as a beacon of inspiration. She worked tirelessly until the age of 85, dedicating each day to providing a better life for her family. Her relentless hard work and resilience in the face of adversity remains truly remarkable to me. Women like her, and women everywhere, contribute uniquely by juggling multiple roles. They build careers, raise children and manage households. Their multifaceted strength and resilience define us.
You deserve appreciation for all the roles you embrace as a woman.
