Editors Note<br />

It’s time to celebrate strength.<br />

The seen and unseen moments. The big and little triumphs.<br />

Especially those moments that it was all you.<br />

The moments where you took the next step.<br />

Celebrate strength and recognize it in all its forms.<br />

<strong>Siouxland</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong> | STRENGTH / 7<br />

“A hero is an ordinary individual<br />

who finds the strength to<br />

persevere and endure in spite<br />

of overwhelming obstacles.”<br />

- Christopher Reeve<br />

Strong is knowing when to say no or enough.<br />

Strong is knowing when it’s time to recharge your batteries, to<br />

self-preserve.<br />

Strong is knowing who you are and staying true to your values.<br />

Strong is following your internal compass.<br />

Strong is asking for help, at times having to borrow strength.<br />

Strong is bravery.<br />

Strong is being vulnerable. Staying open.<br />

Strong is being flexible.<br />

Strong knows when to be silent and when to speak.<br />

Strong allows for space, to rebuild what’s torn, to internalize<br />

before expressing.<br />

Strong is being accountable.<br />

Strong carries responsibility, giving more than you take.<br />

Strong is committed, no excuses.<br />

Strong pushes through for purpose.<br />

Strong is putting yourself out there and facing fears. Moving in<br />

spite of fear.<br />

Strong is bold and beautiful.<br />

You got this. ”<br />
