Dear Readers,

March is a month of recognition, honoring Women’s History, Disability Awareness, and many other important causes. This issue of Authentic Insider highlights the extraordinary contributions of women to society. Kathryn Marsh shares her Prosecutor’s POV, shedding light on the critical role women play in shaping justice. Marcia Dawood, author of Do Good While Doing Well, offers her vision of unlocking opportunities through investing in women and empowering them to thrive.

With Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives facing cuts across government and business sectors, I break down what DEI is, how it benefits society, and why continued efforts are essential to keeping women and families safe.

As trauma survivors, we often become who our caregivers expect us to be rather than discovering our authentic selves. STAR Network’s Dr. Jamie Huysman and Mila Stankovic—our beautiful cover model—share their journeys of reclaiming authenticity after escaping toxic childhoods.

Contributor Kathryn Selvidge, author of Kloe’s New Start, bravely recounts her experience growing up as the capable yet neglected sibling of a violent, disabled brother.

If you’re searching for a therapist but find the process overwhelming, Cali Binstock offers practical tools to help you find the right fit and navigate the journey.

With the current state of affairs in the USA, Trauma Educator Karen Gross explores the profound pain of hypocrisy and its impact on society.

Don’t forget to check out our monthly playlist celebrating women’s history, along with curated book recommendations for both children and adults. Plus, Joy Larkin’s Twin Flame Reading reveals what March has in store.

Happy reading!
