I am a 40-year-old, mother, founder, sister, wife, friend, educated, white privileged woman. Born to a single mother who fought tirelessly for a better life for herself and her children, who raised me to truly believe I could be and do anything. However, despite all this...I felt the constraints of being a woman. I have felt the pressure to live up to the unrealistic and relentless standards.
I have also experienced the darkside of being a woman - I’ve been groped, grabbed, stalked multiple times, and sexually assaulted - by 2 men I knew. I’ve been yelled at and called names. I’ve feared walking alone at night and now, even in the day. I’ve been labelled a slut, dramatic, sensitive and ironically too assertive. I’ve been conditioned to believe it is my primary role to care for the children, the house, the food - I constantly feel the weight of the mental load.
My male partners over the years no matter their careers have always earned more than me and have always had more in super. I’ve not spoken up and shared parts of myself all too often out of fear of not getting it right or not being worthy enough to contribute, but this is not unique to me. This is many women’s daily reality. Too often when you share one of these stories with another woman they will tell you theirs.... because we all have them.
My whole life I have been surrounded by incredible women, yet in varying degrees we were all missing out, not speaking up, not living life to the fullest. Whether it was not going for a job because they didn't feel 100% qualified or that they constantly felt less than, not pretty enough, skinny enough - just never enough or our voices were not being heard or believed and it was everywhere I looked.
Six years ago I started Tomorrow Woman because I wanted women to have a voice, to have the tools to speak up, to feel they have agency despite all that we can’t control, challenge unhealthy societal expectations and live unapologetically.
We have a long way to go but I genuinely believe the work we do at Tomorrow Woman is one small step in the bigger picture of creating long lasting change.
- Paige, Tomorrow Woman Cofounder and CEO, Advocate, Feminist, mother
When women trust their voice and dare to speak up, their power expands in all areas of their life. When women listen with curiosity and compassion, they strengthen the support systems they need. When women aren’t limited by what they’re “supposed to be”, they get to author their tomorrow.
Led by master facilitators, Tomorrow Woman runs high-participatory workshops that guide young and adult women to unapologetically raise their voice beyond the limiting expectations placed on them. Our facilitators do this by weaving depth, humour, and vulnerability, to empower each person to share and learn through each other’s personal stories. Every workshop is different. That’s because it’s the participants who guide the conversations, and it’s our facilitators who can reframe and enrich what’s happening on the spot.
Everyone is born with a voice. But most girls are socialised to quieten this voice from fear of being “too much”, or saying the “wrong thing” and looking imperfect. They often apologise for taking up space.This can have a real, rippling impact over their lifetime: loss of identity, low self-worth, self-harm, loneliness, relationship abuse, too few leadership roles. When girls and women lose, society loses too. Our classrooms and boardrooms are yearning for a wider breadth of intelligent and intuitive minds at the table.That’s why Tomorrow Woman exists.
We’re proud to call this bunch of powerful, quirky amazing humans, the Tomorrow Woman team.
Tween Girls and Adult Beauty Products: The Impact of GRWM Culture
If you're not familiar with the acronym 'GRWM', you've likely seen a video on your social media of a young person, doing their makeup while telling you a story, or taking you through their skincare routine. It's a popular format of storytelling and sharing and we're seeing younger and younger girls being influenced by it.
Practical Wellbeing Strategies for Students: Beyond the Classroom
Supporting student wellbeing beyond the classroom involves more than just academic focus. It’s about fostering a holistic environment where students feel emotionally supported, resilient, and mentally healthy.
Pixel Perfect: The rise of AI women
Artificial intelligence is woven into our lives, affecting everything from entertainment to careers. However, it also brings up some unsettling topics, like AI-generated women, that push us to rethink what it means to be human. As we move through this AI-driven world, it's important to focus on real-life connections and have open conversations about what these advancements mean for our society.
Tomorrow Woman is a social enterprise in partnership with Tomorrow Man and Tomorrow Architects. Our offices are located in Sydney and Melbourne – and we travel everywhere across Australia.
