It\u2019s the day specifically dedicated to amplifying the achievements of girls and women who contribute to the advancement of our society. And it\u2019s the day we, women and allies, raise awareness around issues that affect the welfare of girls and women.<\/p><p>&#8211; Essenece Gant, Director of Ad Studio<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Varsh Srivatsan, Senior Product Manager<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/prose-blog-media\/1\/2021\/03\/Varsh_Option1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-14928\"\/>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:4px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As an international WOC, IWD is a day of reflection and celebration of all gender identities who put in the hard work day to day in support of gender equality.

To me, this day is a reminder that the only thing holding us back is the self-doubt rooted in us, simply because we were born in a body that defines us as women.
