“We just started playing.”
“We just started playing.” Sara – June 2018 Time really flies. We realise that at the end of each day in our CoWomen space. Is it possible that the day ends, we have worked on one task after the other – hardly thinking about food or even breathing – and still there is a feeling […]
Having a baby… like an appointment at the dentist?
Having a baby… like an appointment at the dentist? Hannah – June 2018 Now we know it: The date on which our second son will be born. “Like an appointment at the dentist,” said my project manager from my employee life… my what? Employement? Yes, I have already spoken directly about a possible return to […]
Go get it, Girl
Kim – June 2018 Just a few weeks ago, I was browsing job portals looking for a job that would allow me to learn and grow. I was looking for something more challenging than my flexible life as a student is demanding at the moment. I really don’t want to complain about my studies, I love it, I just lack […]
Top 2018 women’s podcasts
Kat – July 2018 It’s not a secret I love podcasts seeing as I host one of my own. You build such a personal relationship with someone when you have their voice in your ear while you do the dishes, ride your bike, or are just winding down after a long day. What I also […]
Summer of Stories
Summer of stories Sara – August 2018 Thanks to my incredible team, I was able to take a few days off and get a real change of setting. Before I left, I was struggling to take in and process any new information since we have been learning and working so much over the past months. […]

I sometimes get smiled at for my Blackberry when someone doesn’t know that Blackberry runs with the safest Android. I have a smartwatch, now the second one. I love my laptop and when I buy bags, I […]
Feminism is not for sale
Kat – September 2018 After almost four years away, I went back to the US for the first time a few weeks ago. It’s a little surreal walking down the same NYC streets as a visitor which you used to walk everyday to work. It’s also always interesting when you have moments to compare how […]
Why I think women should be the ones redefining leadership
Sara – October 2018 Why women? We get asked this a lot at CoWomen, and I have many answers. To discuss this topic, it’s necessary to generalize. So, just to be clear: We’re all individuals, and men can be feminine and feminists, and women aren’t feminine or feminists just based on the fact they’re women. However, a new rise […]
A review of the Kickass (Wo)men event and the magic of CoWomen
Kim – November 2018 This morning I took my “Kickass (Wo)men” shirt out of the closet. I saw it and I just felt like this one of those days: A day I remember that I am Kickass and that I can do almost anything together in a strong team. I remember the day of the […]
4 dos & don’ts of speaking at Web Summit and other large stages
Kat – November 2018 Whether it’s speaking just in front of a couple of people or thousands – sweaty palms, racing heart, forgetting what you wanted to say, we’ve all felt some level of nerves when speaking publicly. Recently we had the pleasure of attending Web Summit, one of the biggest tech conferences from around […]
