Behind the Name…

“You are such a tomboy.” This is a comment I have heard my entire life. I use to think it was a bad thing. Because I am a girl I should not be able to play the same sports with the guys, be a dare devil, or even be strong for that matter. Now I realize how inaccurate that way of thinking was.

It is powerful to be a tomboy. I have learned to embrace how strong I am and that I can hang with the best of ‘em.

Anything guys can do we can do too, maybe even better!

tom·​boy [noun]: a girl who is strong and confident. Enjoys the outdoors and playing sports. Not afraid to work hard and get sweaty.
