Where did the name "Iron Lotus" come from?
​
The lotus flower represents many things all over the world, but it is significant to me because it only grows from the muddy, dark places of a pond. It's a reminder to me that the most beautiful things often grow out of sight and that the face the world sees has a whole story behind it. The same is true for every glorious woman I know. And iron? It's strong, but has to be cared for or it rusts and can eventually fall into disrepair and can't live up to its full potential. The same is true for all of us.​ We need to care for ourselves: mind, body, and soul.
​​
What does the logo represent?
​
I've already mentioned the significance of the lotus flower. In the logo, the triangle surrounding it represents the triangle of victimization. In order for an attack to be successful, there needs to be an attacker, an opportunity, and an unsuspecting target. We can't always control who we're around, and sometimes we find ourselves in situations we wish we weren't, but we can make sure the triangle breaks with us, not allowing a would-be attacker to have an unsuspecting target.​
​
Iron Lotus is the picture of strength and beauty, coming together in one fierce package: you.
