“When you lift up women, you lift up humanity." These words from Melinda Gates’ book resonate deeply with my own story and experiences. Melinda gives several examples of women driving change on different levels in their families, communities, and societies. Similar to the pages in my book, Melinda shares heart-rending conversations she’s had with women all over the world and offers practical solutions for how we can get involved to make the world a better place.

As a traveler, I enjoyed reading about all the amazing women Melinda French Gates has met in her travels around the world. She shares their stories and talks about what is possible when we empower all women. When a woman is lifted up, she has the power to change her family and community. The book is an easy read and offers practical and compelling ideas.
