A lot has happened since my last post. COVID took its toll in the world, disrupting lives. Thankfully my family and I survived the infection, got doubly vaccinated, and boosted. Crazy times! I have done Zoom book clubs and in-person presentations, but got behind in posting them in my events. Life is finally reaching some normalcy.
I can't overlook that 2022 marks 50 years since the passage of Title IX. Even though most people don't know that ATHLETICS was not specifically addressed in the Title IX bill, it provided athletic opportunities for females. Title IX was basically an EDUCATION bill, and athletics is part of an educational institution's offerings. Today's girls are blessed with a world of opportunities, but there is still more equity needed.
Meeting Her Match continues to inspire and educate. I constantly receive emails from readers thanking me for exposing them to stories of determination, perseverance, and hope. Many older female readers experienced similar life challenges, not only in sports, but in careers. The journey continues.
