Girl Power, Batteries Not Included

08.01.2025

They’ll hand us the title. The seat at the table. Sometimes even the corner office.

But not the power source.

We’re still expected to walk in fully charged, light up the room, carry everyone else’s load, and never flicker. And when burnout hits? The story gets flipped: she wasn’t tough enough, she couldn’t hack it.

Please. We know better.

Here’s the truth: girl power was never meant to be a solo sport. It’s not about running on fumes while the system drains us dry. It’s about having each other’s backs. Plugging each other in. Making sure no one’s brilliance gets dimmed out alone.

Because when women support women? The whole equation changes. The room gets louder. The work gets smarter. The system starts to bend. Innovation doesn’t flatline — it finds a pulse.

Girl power isn’t merch or a slogan. It’s infrastructure. And let’s be real — infrastructure doesn’t get handed to us in an HR packet. We build it. Together.

We build networks that swap gatekeeping for access. We build cultures where women don’t have to shout to be heard. We build systems where leadership doesn’t demand blood, sweat, and your whole nervous system just to prove you belong.

And the best part? When we build like this, we all rise. Progress doesn’t just add up — it compounds.

So no, girl power doesn’t come with batteries included.
But honestly? That’s fine. Because when we wire the future ourselves, the lights stay on for everyone.
