The One Million Voices Commitment: Aspiration + Action = Abundance
Across the world, women are dreaming bigger, speaking louder, and building communities that support growth, opportunity, and connection. Inspiration has always been powerful, but today’s women are asking for something more. They want meaningful action that leads to real progress. At THIS IS IT NETWORK™, we believe aspiration alone is not enough. True change happens when aspiration is paired with action. That belief is the foundation of the One Million Voices Commitment, a global invitation for remarkable women to take small, meaningful steps that collectively create lasting impact.
Led by CEO and Executive Producer Cheldin Barlatt Rumer and guided by the SCREAM YOUR DREAM™ mission, THIS IS IT NETWORK™ is committed to amplifying the voices of women through educational entertainment, leadership conversations, and community-driven experiences. Through this campaign, we are encouraging women everywhere to use their voices, support one another, and engage with their communities in ways that create opportunity for everyone.
The One Million Voices Commitment is built around five simple but powerful actions. Each one is accessible, practical, and designed to meet women where they are. Progress does not require perfection. Sometimes the most important step forward is simply beginning. Crawling is still forward.
Share Your Story
Every woman carries experiences, lessons, and insights that could help another person navigate their journey. Yet many women hesitate to speak about their challenges or achievements because they believe their story is not important enough.
Sharing your story is one of the most powerful acts of leadership. It reminds others that they are not alone and shows that growth often comes from resilience, persistence, and learning along the way.
Sharing your story does not require a stage or a microphone. It can happen in a conversation with a colleague, a message to a friend, a post on social media, or a mentoring moment with someone just starting out. By speaking honestly about your experiences, you create space for others to do the same.
Tell a Friend
One of the most meaningful ways women can support each other is through connection. Too often, opportunities remain hidden because introductions are not made or information is not shared.
The One Million Voices Commitment encourages women to choose abundance over gatekeeping. Introducing remarkable women in your network to one another can open doors, spark collaborations, and create opportunities that might never have happened otherwise.
Telling a friend about another remarkable woman can be as simple as making an introduction, recommending someone for a project, sharing a job opportunity, or connecting two people who might benefit from knowing each other. When women intentionally create connections, entire networks grow stronger.
Support a Woman
Supporting another woman’s dream is both meaningful and practical. Women entrepreneurs, creators, and leaders often rely on the encouragement and participation of their communities to grow their work.
Support can take many forms. Attend her event. Recommend her services. Share her work online. Purchase from her business. Celebrate her achievements publicly.
These actions may seem small, but they contribute to something much larger. When women actively invest in one another’s success, they create an environment where collaboration replaces competition and progress becomes collective.
Find a Cause
Communities thrive when people care enough to participate in shaping them. Whether it is education, healthcare, local business development, environmental initiatives, or civic engagement, every community benefits when individuals step forward to contribute.
Finding a cause does not mean taking on more than you can handle. It simply means paying attention to the issues that matter to you and choosing to participate in a way that fits your life.
You might volunteer a few hours, support a local nonprofit, attend a community meeting, or advocate for an issue that affects your neighborhood. Even small acts of engagement help create stronger and more connected communities.
Be the Change
Leadership often begins with example. The way we treat others, the integrity we demonstrate in our work, and the choices we make each day shape the culture around us.
Being the change means showing others what positive leadership looks like in action. It means acting with kindness, supporting fairness, encouraging collaboration, and choosing solutions over division.
This does not require perfection. It simply requires intention. Every time a woman chooses to lead with empathy, integrity, and courage, she helps create a culture where others feel empowered to do the same.
A Movement Built on Small Steps
The One Million Voices Commitment is not about dramatic gestures or overnight transformation. It is about consistent action, taken by women who understand that progress happens step by step. Sometimes those steps are bold. Sometimes they are quiet. Sometimes they feel small. But crawling is still forward.
When one woman shares her story, another woman feels seen. When one woman makes an introduction, a new opportunity emerges. When one woman supports another, confidence grows. When one woman engages with her community, change begins.
Now imagine those actions multiplied by one million voices. At THIS IS IT NETWORK™, we believe that when remarkable women move together with purpose, aspiration becomes action, and action creates abundance. The invitation is simple. Start where you are. Take the next step forward. And join us in amplifying one million voices around the world.
