Letters To Ourselves | International Women's Day at Maman

International Women’s Day asks many questions.

This year, we chose one.

If you could sit down with your 25-year-old self, what would you say?

Letters To Ourselves is a collection of reflections from women in our community. Not polished speeches. Not filtered advice. Just perspective earned over time.

There is strength here. Practicality. Humour. Boundaries. Risk. Love. The kind of insight that only comes from living.

Read slowly. You may recognise yourself…

INSIDE MAMAN

We asked the women behind Maman the same question.

Not as staff. As women.

Here’s what they wrote.

International Women’s Day is not about perfection. It’s about perspective. Intergenerational insight. The quiet confidence that comes from knowing who you are.

If you’d like to add your voice, we’re still collecting letters. Tell us what you would say to her.

You’ll go in the draw to win a $500 Maman voucher, and your words may inspire another woman who needs to hear them.

Sometimes the advice we’re looking for is already ours.
