Recently I had the honour of being a nominee for the YWCA Women of Distinction awards. I was nominated for the ‘Arts and Culture’ category, and my Birth Project was highlighted, as well as my community involvement with Friends of Muskoka Midwives and La Leche League Leader. I was shocked to hear my name called as the ‘winner’ at the Gala event, as the nominees were highly respected artists with many years on me! How exciting, what an honour and surpise. Thank you to my nominators and to all the amazing women I’m blessed to share my life with!
