International Women's Day 2021

Kirkland’s wouldn’t be the company it is today without the many women who work here behind the scenes. We are proud to have women present in every department at corporate as well as employed across our field of stores.

While each of these women is unique in her own beliefs, family life, hobbies and passions, the one thing that brings us all together is the love of creating happy homes for our customers. And today we want to share a big thank you with all of them. While we know there is a lot of necessary progress still to be made in the world for equality, we are proud to be a company with so many women’s voices at the table.

Rana, Senior Copywriter

Knowing that I can be the catalyst of change just as other incredible, just as other incredible women have been before me makes me feel empowered as a woman. Our ability to be quick thinkers and problem solvers are needed at every table in any room. I hope to see women everywhere create a seat, not just for themselves, but for the wave of brilliant women that are with us and will come after us.

Kristine, eCommerce Director

Today, I think about all the women in my life who have given me the confidence to be strong and independent (looking at you mom, sis, and countless others). I reflect on how women have taken the reigns on so many societal issues, becoming leaders of large corporations and government positions, just in the last five years. I can’t wait to see what we continue to do in the next five!

Terrica, HRIS Administrative Analyst

To me, International Women’s Day means celebrating our achievements, accomplishments, and acknowledging those who have paved the way for all women — especially for our rights. It’s important as women to uplift and be supportive of one another in all aspects and in all ways.

Whitney,Sr. Merchandise Presentation Specialist

I am reflecting today on all the incredible women who have surrounded and supported me both in my personal and professional life. These women have taught me to be unapologetically myself, an invaluable gift that I never take for granted. They have given me the strength to stand with a stronger voice, so that I can use that voice to continue to lift up others. Today, we celebrate all women, with the hope that they can have their voices heard and amplified.

Betty, Director of Sourcing

I believe women bring a different perspective to the workplace largely in part to the roles they play in day-to-day life. I am grateful to work in a place where women are encouraged to think creatively and empowered to make decisions knowing they will be supported every step of the way to achieve their end goal.

Arianna, District Manager

I find empowerment as a woman by helping others find their strengths and watching them succeed. I love to share my knowledge, experiences, and even my failures to help those around me. I believe that by giving, I’m not getting less; but instead I’m helping create more for everyone. I hope to see a world where we ALL have equal opportunities to succeed without any limitations or restrictions in all aspects of life.

Emily Harris, Lead Graphic Designer

I feel grateful that I work in an environment that supports and uplifts women's voices. While the world has made important strides, it's important for us to remember that not everyone benefits from gender equality at the same level and that we need to put in the work towards intersectional gender equality.

Kristine, Benefits Manager

From personal life to work, I am grateful for all the strong women in my life. They have encouraged and guided me to who I am today and are a reminder that my voice does make a difference. It is amazing to see so many women unite around the globe and embrace each other's roles in society regardless of what those roles are. Women continue to be seen as a value in many cultures, and I hope that only continues to grow throughout the world.

Maisha, Housewares Buyer

On this International Women’s Day, I’m reflecting on the value of being independent and forging your own path. I think it’s so important for women to follow their hearts and minds and go after what they really want. I love to see women, young and old, being unapologetically and authentically themselves.
