![Jese Leos](https://bookishfables.com/author/herbert-cox.jpg)
Grandmas play a vital role in our lives. They are the embodiment of love, wisdom, and warmth. In Australia, we have a rich culture of matriarchs who have shaped our families, communities, and the nation as a whole. Today, we celebrate these incredible women and their priceless contributions.
Grandma Speaks is an initiative aimed at honoring and recognizing the strength, resilience, and wisdom of Australian grandmothers. It provides a platform where they can share their life experiences, stories, wisdom, and advice with the younger generation.
With an aging population, it is essential to acknowledge the valuable role grandmothers play in society. They are the bearers of traditions, passing down cultural knowledge, family traditions, and cherished recipes. They are the glue that holds families together, providing unwavering support and love.

During the Grandma Speaks celebration, grandmothers from all walks of life are invited to share their stories. From Indigenous elders to immigrant grandmothers, each one has a unique perspective and experiences to offer. It is a celebration of diversity and unity, as these women come together to celebrate their shared love for their families and their country.
This event not only provides a platform for grandmothers to share their stories but also fosters intergenerational connections. It allows younger generations to learn from the wisdom of their elders, gaining valuable insights and life lessons. It strengthens the bond between generations, bridging the gap between young and old.
The Grandma Speaks celebration is a day filled with storytelling, laughter, tears, and cherished memories. Grandmothers from all over Australia gather to share their experiences, passions, and hopes for the future. The stories range from heartwarming tales of love and sacrifice to overcoming adversity and inspiring triumphs.
One grandmother, Margaret, shared her story of growing up during the Great Depression. She spoke of the hardships her family faced and the lessons she learned about resilience and resourcefulness. Her story resonated with many, reminding us of the importance of gratitude and perseverance in the face of challenges.
Another grandmother, Maria, shared her journey of immigrating to Australia as a young woman. She spoke of the sacrifices she made to ensure a better future for her children and grandchildren. Her story highlighted the courage and determination that many immigrants possess, leaving their homelands in search of opportunities.
The Grandma Speaks celebration also showcases the talents and creativity of Australian grandmothers. From their knitting and crochet skills to their delicious homemade recipes, these women have a wealth of knowledge to share. Workshops are held during the event to allow grandmothers to teach their crafts to younger generations, ensuring that these traditions are passed down for years to come.
It is truly a joyous and heartwarming celebration, filled with love, appreciation, and gratitude. Australian grandmothers are celebrated as the pillars of strength and the custodians of our heritage.
The impact of Grandma Speaks extends beyond the celebration itself. The stories and wisdom shared during the event are compiled into a book, ensuring that their legacy is preserved for future generations. The book serves as a reminder of the power of storytelling and the invaluable lessons passed down through generations.
The Grandma Speaks celebration is not just a day to honor grandmothers. It is a reminder of the importance of cherishing our elders and the wisdom they possess. It encourages us to take the time to listen to their stories, learn from their experiences, and pass down their teachings to future generations.
So, let's take a moment today to celebrate the incredible matriarchs in our lives - our grandmas. Let's thank them for their love, wisdom, and the countless sacrifices they have made. Let's recognize their contributions and honor their legacy. Grandma Speaks is a tribute to these remarkable women who have shaped us and continue to guide us.

"SENSITIVE" ...... "BEAUTIFUL" ....... "TIMELESS".
Grandma Speaks is a 54-page anthology containing real-life advice for young women, written by those who have led the way. The book is a celebration of Australian matriarchs and contains messages from The Hon Julia Gillard AC, Maggie Beer AO, and women and grandmothers of numerous cultures and regions of Australia. This is the perfect gift for that special young woman in your life, contemplating their future and building their own bag of life tools.
The book contains over 2,000 years of wisdom and advice from more than 30 women. The advice is raw in places, true to the contributors, written with love and sensitivity, and dedicated to so many grandchildren across the country. Topics covered include success, love, resilience, careers, mind and body care, spirituality, and decision-making.
The book has been beautifully collated to help young girls and women, while also raising money for two significant charities. All proceeds from the sale of this anthology will be divided between Girls From Oz in Australia and the Save the Kula Babies project helping women, girls, and babies in PNG.
There is something powerful in hindsight and wisdom, yet greater power found in the capacity to share it. May this book create confidence, encouragement, and unity.
