Show description: In today's episode, our founder, Amy Edge, shares the backstory behind the Rising Sisterhood and how this idea went from a gentle nudge, to a book (now book 2) and essentially the movement that we are cultivating together. The Rising Sisterhood is a community built upon the notion that every sister deserves a safe place to feel welcomed, celebrated, encouraged, and lifted up, as we all rise and change our own narratives. Our community is part of a larger movement. This movement goes beyond us; it is intended to be a vessel for serving others in our community and our world. It is our goal to not only provide a platform for women to tell their stories, to be seen, to be heard, and to be understood but also to serve others. This is why, each year, the net profits from this book will be donated to a charity. In 2021, we will be donating to Girls Inc. (For more information, visit https://girlsinc.org.) Our sisterhood inspires us to rise and support each other as we strive toward our dreams, and I want to personally invite you to join us, to rise with us. If you’d like more information on how to share your story in our next book, you can find that information here.
