I have been entrusted with the blissful responsibility of maintaining a conglomerate of sorts of beautiful, intelligent, fun and focused women in New York and New Jersey. We are doctors, lawyers, consultants, human resource directors, pharmacists, marketing managers, etc....but most of all, we are all single and 30 + years of age. For those who do not live in the Tri-State area, this phenomenon of 11 or so 30 year old professionals running amok in New York City and beyond is totally appealing, exciting and short of a miracle. After sending emailed photos to friends and families across the United States, I always get the same response..."Man, you ladies kick it...I live vicariously through you ladies... I'm officially jealous".
However to us.... it's just our lives.
There are no children to attend to, no husbands to take care of, no elderly family members in the area who we are responsible for. It's just us and we depend on one another. We party (HARD), pray for each other, laugh, share dating stories, fuss, fight, drink and just hang out when the spirit hits us. Our homes have open door policies, we have keys to each other's homes, cars and sometimes even bank accounts.
We have traveled abroad together, danced on couches together, held book club meetings, participated in professional and life coaching, held dinner parties and house warming events for each other. This thing we have here is truly a sisterhood that is deeper than any sorority bond and any professional association. It is a necessity that has been embraced by successful women who, no matter the many letters behind their names, choose to prove most stereotypes of women wrong.... ahaha ... yeah right !!!
