As the Director of Community here at iVillage, I know first-hand just how powerful the experience of finding 24/7 support, advice, friendship and women like you can be. We see examples of this each and every day on our message boards. Whether it's a first-time mom finding advice on getting her child to sleep through the night or a woman facing a new diagnosis of breast cancer, the experience and compassion of the iVillage community is often the support network that women turn to. I've long been awestruck and proud of the connections that are made in our community and this is why I'm so excited we're bringing these stories into the spotlight with our Voices from the Village project. We've selected six women around the boards who have graciously offered to star in their own short videos to tell us their stories. Be sure to view these videos and I think you will agree that they are not only heartwarming, but inspiring as well.
Tonight I'm honored to be able to attend a local event for one of our long-time members and community leaders, Lauren Sue (aka cl-lsb210). Lauren Sue's an amazing woman with an amazing story and I'm very much looking forward to sharing her story with her friends, family and community -- not to mention meeting her in person.
Share your own iVillage story and tell us what your iVillage experience has meant to you -- has there been a special message board community that has helped you through a tough time? Or a best friend that you met right here on iVillage? We want to hear *your* story!
