Movers and shakers.

I'm really excited at the prospect of starting up a that girl goes local chapter of i am that girl here in Seattle. I have totally gotten on fire about the prospect of doing this but I can't seem to find many others who feel that way. The idea of having a group of strong women who support each other without catty pretense or games, who can also do amazing things in our community, is just something that appeals to me on such a grand scale.

To apply to lead this local chapter I need nine other local women who are on board to be part of a group that meets weekly to discuss women's issues and to volunteer once a month to work on a project that helps to raise awareness for women's issues. So far I've only got two other women who have told me that they would be interested. This just isn't enough and it's so disappointing to me. I don't know where else to reach out to beyond all of the women I know on facebook.

I'm admittedly feeling pretty defeated about it tonight and am trying to find a way to feel re-energized. If anyone in the Seattle area happens to stumble on this and is interested, please, please shoot me an email at jenandseek (at) gmail (dot) com. I'd love to have anyone join us!
