#ChooseToChallenge: Sophie Collins

How do you #choosetochallenge?⁠

⁠In celebration of #internationalwomensday, we partnered up with Poppy Barley to feature some of our favourite leaders from across the country who are breaking the barriers of change and empowering more female participation in the boardroom.

⁠All of these women proudly sport DirectHer's Diversitees and items from Poppy Barley’s International Women’s Day collection.

Mother, entrepreneur, and wellness advocate. Sophie is a mother to Liam (with another boy on the way) who lives in Vancouver with her husband. Sophie shares her recipes, lifestyle tips and even pilates workouts with the underlying mission to help others feel their best.

I Choose to Challenge:

The status quo when it comes to women's health equity (through my work as Co-Chair for the YWC for BC Women's Health Foundation)

For the Future I Hope:

More equity from the boardroom to the examining room – more research, more education, more "égalité.
