Copa: Please tell us the importance of women coming together on a regular basis to discuss relevant issues?
Sebrina: It is vitally important that women connect. Of most significance: we have a wealth of information and support to offer in parenting, dating & marriage, career advancement, care giving for parents, health concerns, budgeting and running a household. Connecting with women with common challenges is helpful in keeping us from isolating ourselves knowing that we are not the only ones struggling or being challenged. There is always room for growth; healthy discussions yield growth. It is so easy to get lost in the busyness of life, but God wants us to live victoriously. A winning team shares the load and lightens the burden.
