This International Women’s Day, let’s celebrate the incredible women around us and commit to breaking down barriers in the workplace, in leadership, and in every area of life. To all the women shaping industries, driving change, and inspiring future generations: We see you, we appreciate you, and we stand with you!
Let’s #AccelerateAction for Gender Equality
While progress has been made, achieving true gender parity may take decades – potentially five generations. But together, we can speed up this journey! At Manning Global, we believe in making meaningful strides toward a future filled with equality, empowerment, and opportunity.
Our CEO and Founder, Rachael Manning, puts it perfectly:
“Each of us brings unique skills to the table. Instead of dividing by gender, let’s unite to create equal opportunities for a brighter future. Happy Women’s Day 2025 from the Manning Global team!”

Celebrating Women’s Strength and Self-Care
Life can feel like a balancing act – between family, work, and personal commitments, it’s easy to forget about the most important person: YOU! Here’s some essential advice from our team of experts that have recently featured on our blog:
Laura Wingate, Founder & CEO of Meno Plan, shares a powerful reminder:
“Being a woman can be tough. One of the best pieces of advice I have is to be a tiny bit selfish. Make time for yourself and put it in your diary – whether it’s an hour on Sunday morning or 15 minutes every day. Your body and mind will thank you for it!”
A Different Perspective on Women’s Day
Self-awareness is key to personal and professional growth. Teodora Paucean, Associate Certified Coach ICF, says:
“Invest in your self-awareness and healing work – it pays the most dividends long term. Learn to be comfortable with discomfort and lack of clarity, as they are part of the process of letting go of old coping mechanisms and finding your true self.”
Jasmine Navarro, Executive Well-Being Expert:
“Work on yourself every day. The more self-awareness we have, the more we can live a life aligned with who we truly are. When we do that, we become fulfilled – and the more fulfilled we are, the more we can inspire and support others.”
