#DSMonth 2010

It’s time to celebrate the First Annual Digital Sisterhood Month in December 2010!

Digital sisterhood is the feminine currency women use to create relationship wealth through the connections they make, conversations they have, communities they build, causes they support, collaborative partnerships they establish, and commerce they engage in with women they meet online and offline. Digital Sisterhood Month was established by Ananda Leeke, a lawyer turned innerpreneur, author, artist, coach, and yoga teacher, to give women an opportunity to celebrate their connections, conversations, communities, collaborative partnerships, and commerce.
