Johanna is joining me in Dressember!

We have added another to our Dressember team, making it four now. A few days ago Johanna accepted my invitation to join us and I could not be more thrilled. The two of us have been friends for 10 years now. We met through mutual friends our freshman year at Western Kentucky University and have been close through moves, breakups, children and everything else associated with growing up. So here’s to Johanna! Also, here are 10 reasons why she rocks.

1. She has always been a fierce advocate for women.
2. She’s a wonderful mother of three.
3. She lets her kids be who they are, which sometimes means letting them be Michael Jackson.
4. We have a shared love of the movie Anchorman.
5. She has a strong love/interest in history.
6. She has an awesome fascination with mummies, horror movies, etc.
7. She’s an amazing dancer. She used to be on WKU’s dance team.
8. She’s been through some things and chooses to use her experiences to help others.
9. She’s very easy to talk to.
10. She’s one of my favorite people to laugh with.

Thanks Johanna. I’m so excited to be connected with you all of December through Dressember!

For those of you who do not know, Dressember is a campaign during the entire month of December to raise money and awareness for organizations working to end human trafficking. Each woman who participates commits to wearing a dress the entire month of December, whether that’s the same dress, repeated dresses or a different one each day. It’s a campaign that’s more than just a dress. This will be my second year participating. Last year I raised over $500 alone, so who knows what we can do with four or more women!
