March: Celebrating Women & Raising Awareness

March is a month that wears many hats. From the festive cheers of International Women's Day on March 8 to the subtle yet powerful reminders of Endometriosis Awareness Month, it's a month dedicated to celebrating the strength, resilience, and remarkable accomplishments of women worldwide. But it's also a time to reflect on the challenges women face, with Endometriosis Month stepping into the spotlight as a crucial cause that needs our attention.
So, what do these two events have in common, and how can we make the most out of this month? Well, buckle up, because we’re diving deep into both – with a sprinkle of humour and a whole lot of heart.
International Women’s Day: Honouring Strength
March 8th is all about celebrating women’s accomplishments. Whether in the workplace, at home, or in the community, women are making history. This day is a call to action for equality, with the 2025 theme #ChooseToChallenge encouraging us to challenge bias and inequality. So, let’s raise a glass to all the incredible women making it happen every day!
Endometriosis Awareness Month: She’s Not Just Cranky
March is also Endometriosis Awareness Month, a time to shed light on a condition affecting 1 in 10 women globally. Endometriosis is a chronic illness where tissue grows outside the uterus, causing debilitating pain. It often takes 7-10 years for women to receive a proper diagnosis, and awareness is key.
