Today I am hugely honoured, excited and SURPRISED to be attending the Woman of The Year Awards. Does make me laugh that a CrewMAN is being invited to that 😂 But I guess that says something in itself. I have NEVER celebrated being a woman. In fact I’ve hidden from it throughout my career, I never wanted to be ‘token Doris’. I now realise that I have a responsibility to celebrate the great career I had as a woman. Not because i am ‘anything special’ but to show other females coming in my wake that ANYTHING is possible,  and to quote @mandyhickson…sometimes you have to see it to believe it…so ladies…START BELIEVING 🌟 🌟🌟
