Why WO3 Is Needed Now More Than Ever

Tammi Relyea, Founder, WO3

Somewhere along the way, we lost our kindness, our sense of community, and the simple act of lifting each other up. The world feels heavier, conversations harsher, and the space for support smaller. But I refuse to believe that’s who we are at our core. Women have always been the backbone of resilience, innovation, and leadership, yet so often, their work is overlooked or undervalued.

WO3 exists to be different—to be a movement that uplifts women-owned and women-led businesses everywhere. Because when we champion each other, we create ripples of change that extend far beyond ourselves.

On Saturday, March 29th—our WO3 Day—I invite you to join our annual signature initiative by taking a simple yet impactful step: supporting your favorite women-owned businesses.

Buy from them, share their work, shout them out—let’s rally our friends and communities to join us in this collective act of elevation. Imagine the impact if, for just one day, we poured our energy into lifting women higher. What if this movement didn’t stop at a single day, but inspired a lasting shift in how we show up for one another?

Now is the time to return to the light—to choose collaboration over competition, kindness over indifference, and action over passivity. We can bring back the sense of community we long for, but it starts with each of us making the choice to support, uplift, and stand together. Let’s show the world what happens when women rise—together.

Let’s see what we can accomplish together! Sign up for reminders and be part of our community at wo3connect.com. Need ideas for WO3 Day? We’ve got you covered!
