#iwentfirst: I Am Me Without Apology

I haven’t really thought of myself as courageous, but now that you mention it…

I feel like I’ve manifested the life I’ve wanted...as a small business owner it’s a risk everyday to keep going this distance. As a mother I’ve roared courageously in the face of adversity and as an advocate for them along the way. As a woman I’m unapologetically who I am...

outspoken, sexual, willing to stand up and fight for what I feel is right.

Now that you mention it, I am courageous and I want to join the chorus too

#iwentfirst is a collection of photos and captions from women who stood in the power of their own contagious courage, and decided to “go first” by telling the world what it means for them to take up space.

Have your own story of contagious courage?
