While I’m on a tear, a big shout out to older women on here. We’re so often deficit-coded in relation to both tech and political naïveté, and we’re made invisible by the cultures around us.
We’re formidably experienced and carry a lifetime of wisdom. We’ve led teams, lifted weight, made things happen, raised families, buried love and loved ones, balanced all kinds of budgets, learned and taught. We’ve carried humans, illness, joy, change and injury in our bodies that are the most speculated about and over managed, and this goes double and triple for women who weren’t always recognised as who they are.
We see each other, we learn from each other, we hold each other up when all of it is too much.
