Facebook: The Revolutionist

At my last agency visit which was Facebook, I was surrounded by thought walls and emoji pillows and I was excited to hear amazing insights from a fellow Duck Alum. During one of the lectures I went to the bathroom and noticed that there was a full shelf dedicated to women products. I have never in my life been in a bathroom where those products are easily accessible and most importantly FREE. I was in the bathroom for like 10 minutes in awe haha, I wanted to take one and I didn’t even need it. When I got back to the conference room I reflected on how my future agency can really be a safe haven for women and how I can build facilities within my agency that supports women health, maternity and women’s mental health. 

I am a strong believer that women are the driving force of creative thinking. If we’re given the space and opportunity to express it, great work would come out of it. I’ve noticed that I’ve become numb to my surrounding environment(s) and I have failed to recognize that some of my basic needs aren’t met on a daily basis.
