If parents teach kids what sex is, how it is not always about procreation and what consent is, kids will not end up depending on the distorted pop culture representation

We have an inherent attraction to discounts. No matter how much we love a product, we know how to get it for a lesser price. We have eyes and ears for offers, and we never miss big deals.

Moving forward, through my think tank, I hope to bring this sense of deep being and possibility to our kids, and to our work in the space of mental and political health in India- so we unleash our kids on the spectrum of autism, feistily, fully, and freely, rather than keep them caged, by rules dictated by man. 

I once faced gender discrimination at a private institution, and while we observe progress is being made in dismantling the patriarchy, the complex and deeply ingrained system will take its own course

A teen teaches herself to play the drums, encourages other girls to hone their innate talents and nurtures future dreams for her village in Nagaland that is shedding patriarchy.

A leading women’s rights activist tells the story of a young girl fighting the devadasi practice that enslaves girls of vulnerable communities into the flesh trade, either through direct dedications or false marriages

Bhagyashree Lekami was focused on entering the sports profession until the people in her village made her head of the panchayat. Now she tries to ensure her village progresses, from winning workers’ confidence to busting vaccine hesitancy.

Taunted and rebuked by the conservatives during her teenage years for her passion for water sports, the encouraging words of her mother kept Bilquis Mir going. Now the 33-year-old is not only a household name and a youth icon in Kashmir but also a trusted coach and international judge.

We have an eye to spot abuse, toxicity, inequality, stereotypes, stigma, bias, and any form of injustice. We don’t adhere to the laws of patriarchy. How can society expect us, who have broken the system of subordination, to not encourage other women to do the same? How can we possibly tolerate other women being enslaved to patriarchy when we know how wonderful the other side is?

Throughout my professional life, a lot has been said and written about how to build our leadership journey and catapult one’s career. While all of them are relevant, my experience has shown me that there is only one significant way to do this.
