I AM

Tawana Trammell

We are capable of being submissive and influential, a help meet and entrepreneur, dreamer and creator, a protector and protestor, and the list goes on Everyday we are faced with determining which roles me must play to carry out the task before us. Sometimes it’s challenging, but we manage to get through it.

Women have a way of bringing families and communities together through love, support, and resources. History has shown us that it only takes one woman to bring change to the world. We not only have visions but plans to make them a reality. Women will collaborate, barter, and sacrifice to fulfill their purpose.

Some people view us as aggressive but what the world really sees is passion. We are passionate about what we believe. Women live by internal convictions that causes us to use our voices to speak for those who have been silenced. We pursue excellence in everything our hands touch. We don’t look for personal recognition, we just want the world to be a better place for our children

We have learned that in order for that to happen we must use our education, skills, finances, vote, businesses, connections, and voice.

God has given us ALL we need to carry out the plans He has for us. So don’t get weary in your well doing You were built for this! The Bible says in Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future ”

When you feel like giving up, remember the strength that lies within. As of today, you have a 100% success rate related to overcoming challenges. The fact that you are still here means there is more work for you to do. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and before you know it, you would have achieved your goals and inspired others along the way! You got this and your sisters are cheering you on.
