May We Be Them Sara

- Society & Culture
Sara DuMond hosts a podcast inspired by one of her favorite toasts: Here's to Strong Women. May we know them. May we be them. May we raise them. "May We Be Them" is a podcast that explores the lives and stories of strong women. Strong women come in all different forms, walks of life, and backgrounds. The through-line, is that the strong women we highlight are all living out their life's purpose in a way that leaves nothing on the table. Whether it's through their work, their creative endeavors, their volunteer work, their faith-based activities, or their activism, these women are setting an example of what it means to recognize the gifts they've been given and then share them with the world. If you're struggling to know how to tap into the gifts you've been given, we hope these stories will inspire you and light a fire within you.
