The fact is that our kids are growing up in a day&age where beauty is measured by likes & comments. They are trying to achieve unrealistic and distorted realities all to appease others. Let's change this...NOW!

As a staunch supporter of women in sport, I implore all parents who see “female only”, “female empowerment” and other buzz words to truly assess and critically examine those programs… not all is as it seems.

@john_tzanis @KMbappe physical health and wellness. We wonder why our WHO score is so low on this spectrum. In the club system and we too have financial assistance programs (internally) and we work to help mitigate that barrier as best as possible. However it’s also the “ask” that needs attention.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@john_tzanis @KMbappe Having grown up in Oak ridges, I recognize these fields all too well. The reality is harsh, even in these affluent spaces. We, Clubs, communities, etc. need to do a better job of collaborating to support kids in sport as it is incredible in more ways than simply just playing…

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@AFC_Toronto Congrats, @sylsyl10 👏. Always doing big things.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

I truly don’t know when you become “too
Old” to acquire autographs from the @CanadaSoccerEN WNT, but I think you’re truly never too old to be inspired by the #nextgen. Thank you for inspiring me and a plethora of little girls. ❤️🤍

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@vaillancourt_dr Having recently had a family member use MAiD I am grateful this exists in our country.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

Happy International Women’s Day to all those making waves. I see you, I support you and I stand with you as we work to #inspireinclusion. Remember, it’s not just words, but actions that speak the loudest. 💜🤍

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

It’s been a while… but for whomever needs to hear this, show up for YOU. 🤍

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

On this World Mental Health Day I’m reflecting on the power of word choice and communication. Words matter. How you choose to Communicate matters.

@b1ackbird_ Could not agree more, my friend. Hope you’re well. Please tell the girls I say hello!

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

At the end of the day, it’s not about the wins, the losses, or anything between. It’s about character- the development of people and who influences that… because your record doesn’t go on your tombstone.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@erinlnxx You inspire me daily. For whatever that is worth. 🤍

I’ll just leave this here…

We deserve better. The future of this game deserves better.

I love this sport, but change is desperately needed.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

- Canada is #1 for educational attainment yet 71st for wage equality for similar work
- 3 girls drop out of sport for every boy

So today, think about the future you want to create for the women in your life & put action behind it. There are 364 days left to create impact.

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

Happy #IWD2023. I am so grateful for the impactful & incredible women in my life. 💜 Today is 1/365 days where we should take a hard look at the realities of why awareness is needed:
- 4% of biopharma r&d goes towards female centric issues
- WE forum anticipates 132yrs to parity

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@vaillancourt_dr It took me playing at the University level to have my FIRST female assistant coach…

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@erinlnxx You. Are. Incredible.

All the girls you have coached are so fortunate to have had you (having worked with you first hand, I too was one of the fortunate ones). 🤍

[Samantha Stewart (Cawkell) @scawkell]

@rwesthead This is incredibly sad for a sport that has seen so much growth & structure implementation at the grassroots level. The #CSB deal + financial mismanagement is deeply troublesome & problematic. The irony of the first sentence and lack of LT faith through signing this #csb deal…
