Yesterday marked the second day of the World Women Summit organized by The Pocket Project, where we had the opportunity to listen to a presentation by the world-renowned peacemaker Scilla Elworthy. The founder of Peace Direct addressed questions such as: How can we deal with extreme violence without using force in return? How can we interrupt cycles of violence and heal the wounds that remain? How can we repair the social fabric of communities and societies that have been torn apart by violence? What can we learn from survivors about healing social tissue and rebuilding trust? These questions run deep through our hearts, bodies, and minds, and we are grateful to ground ourselves in the wisdom of an elder of our global healing movement, Scilla Elworthy, as we explore them together. All live sessions are available to watch on the website: https://lnkd.in/d9dHpvJy Join us today again at 8:00 PM Berlin Time, where we will address some of the profound questions being explored during the World Women Summit, such as: What are the most pressing challenges humanity faces today? How can we foster a culture of deep compassion and care? What practices have been transformative in times of adversity, and how can we nurture and balance feminine energy in our society? In this call, some of the Summit speakers and participants will share the essence of their reflections from the event. This call will offer space for concise sharing of insights and stories from any of you who have been touched by the Summit. Join us to deepen your practice, engage more meaningfully, and process more thoughtfully as we learn together from the collective wisdom of our World Women community. #entuzjastkiworld #pocketproject #worldwomensummit #collectivecare #womenleaders #globalhealingmovement #traumainformedcare

🌟 The Global Professional Women Network (PWN) Summit in Strasbourg took place yesterday, on International Women's Day 2024, at the European Parliament, in Strasbourg, France (!). 🚂 On my train back home, I am still blown away by the program Corinne Albert (Chamla), her team, and the 2 Global Co-Presidents Virginia Otel and Nadine Castellani-Floderer put together, around the themes of Health, Peace, and Wealth, for women. 🎤 I had the honor of addressing the audience, 300 inspiring women (and a few men!) executives, managers, and entrepreneurs, on the theme of (mental) health. 🤩 The theme of my 3-minute power talk? Being Your Own Best Friend Forever. 😢 I saw a few women tear up. 💗 I heard the collective silent energy while they put their hand on their heart and followed my guidance to connect with their inner leader. 💫 It was Inner Leadership in Action. 💫 Many women came to me after to share how impactful my speech was for them. How being kind to themselves had never crossed their mind till that moment. How the one person holding them back from being their empowered confident self...is themselves. 😕 Self-criticism, perfectionism, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, procrastination... 🖐 Many hands went up when I mentioned these personal challenges. As Fabienne Keller, European Deputy at the European Parliament said during her opening speech, 'Applause yourself, growing your confidence all starts with self-love.'. Psychological research has shown that acknowledging and celebrating achievements, no matter how small, positively affects well-being and self-confidence. And we all know the world needs more confident women today! So I am asking every woman reading this: 🎉 What do you celebrate yourself for today? ⭐ I'll go first...check the comments! #iwd2024 #pwnglobalsummit

🌟 International Women’s Day 🌟 As we mark another International Women’s Day, let’s reflect together about the fundamental role of women in shaping a resilient future. 🔹 Organizations with diverse leadership not only perform better but also illustrate creativity and empathy, showcasing the untapped potential when we embrace diversity at every level. 🔹 Women are the backbone of healthcare systems worldwide, embodying roles from frontline workers to healthcare leaders. Their expertise, empathy, and resilience have been especially crucial during health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. 🔹 Women’s engagement in sustainability reflects their dedication to a healthier planet. By leveraging their unique perspectives and knowledge, women contribute significantly to the fight against climate change and the promotion of sustainable living. ♥️ The fundamental role of women in supporting family well-being is crucial for societal health and community vitality. Women serve as educators, caregivers, and emotional anchors within the family unit, shaping the next generation’s values, health, and education. Their influence reaches beyond the family, enhancing the broader community. Through empowering women, we will see positive change across entire communities. Let’s keep the conversation going and turn our reflections into actions for a better tomorrow. ☘️ #WomensDay #InternationalWomensDay #Inclusion #Diversity #Empowerment #Innovation

Celebrating Her: A World Brighter Because of Women This International Women's Day, let's not just celebrate achievements, but truly appreciate the world we live in – a world shaped by the brilliance, creativity, and unwavering spirit of women. Imagine a world without her: - A quieter science: No groundbreaking vaccines, crucial cancer research, or life-saving innovations that women have championed in healthcare. - A less vibrant economy: Businesses lacking the diverse leadership and perspectives that women bring to the table, stifling innovation and progress. - A technologically stagnant society: From coding to engineering, women shape the future of technology. Their absence would leave us with a slower pace of advancement and a less connected world. But here's the reality we celebrate: 🎈 Women are at the forefront of medical breakthroughs, saving lives and shaping a healthier future. 🎈Women are leaders in business, driving innovation and pushing boundaries in every industry. Businesses cannot thrive without their creativity and leadership. 🎈Women are architects of technology, building the tools and connections that shape our world. Science cannot progress without their groundbreaking discoveries. This is just a glimpse! Women of all races, religions, and backgrounds are changing the world every day. Let's celebrate their existence, their successes, and their endless potential. This International Women's Day, let's celebrate the power of women – their resilience, their strength, and their unwavering determination. We celebrate women of all creeds and colors, for they inspire us and push boundaries every day. Together, let's commit to creating a world where their voices continue to be heard, their talents cherished, and their contributions valued! #IWD2024 #SheTheChange #InternationalWomensDay #internationalwomensday2024 #EmpoweredWomen #CelebrateWomen #GirlPower #women #womenempowerment

Empowering Voices: The Master Series Leads the Charge for Inclusivity and Healing on International Women's Day Celebrating International Women's Day, The Master Series stands as a resolute symbol of empowerment, fervently championing knowledge dissemination in the vital arenas of trauma, mental health, and overall well-being. As a female-owned enterprise, our commitment transcends conventional limits, cultivating environments where the resonant voices of women are not only acknowledged but also fervently celebrated and unwaveringly amplified. Building on the insightful feedback received after last year's Master Series Oxford conference, where attendees expressed concerns about the absence of female representation at a headline level, we're thrilled to announce a transformative shift. The feedback clearly illuminated a rupture, emphasising the need for more diverse perspectives and women in prominent roles. This year, as a part of our commitment to repair and rectify this gap, strong women will not only lead keynotes but also inaugurate the conference—a direct response to the need for diverse voices and representation, addressing the identified ruptures from the previous conference. Contemplating the milestones achieved and challenges surmounted, The Master Series eagerly anticipates our flagship event in Oxford this September—an invigorating exploration of the theme, "Rupture and Repair." This thematic journey delves into the intricacies of trauma, casting light on the processes of repair and healing. Together, we have the power to dismantle barriers and forge a path toward a more inclusive and compassionate society. Let us together usher in a future where empowerment knows no bounds—a future sculpted by unity, resilience, and boundless inspiration. #IWD2024 #InspireInclusion #MasterSeriesEmpowers

In Honor of International Women's Day: A Tribute to Women in Healthcare On this International Women's Day, let's celebrate the remarkable women in healthcare who are forging paths toward inclusivity, understanding, and wellness. Today, we honor the contributions of female professionals who dedicate themselves to improving mental health, advocating for equity in care, and breaking down the barriers faced by those seeking support. Women in behavioral health are at the forefront of innovative therapies and research, driving advances that recognize the nuanced needs of diverse populations. Their work not only heals but also empowers individuals to face life's challenges with resilience. Traditionally, healthcare leadership and health tech have been male-dominated, but women, often seen in nurturing roles, have been pivotal in providing care. Despite facing obstacles to leadership positions, there's a positive trend of more women reaching top executive roles, bringing diverse perspectives that improve decision-making and care quality. Women's leadership in healthcare is crucial for creating empathetic, effective, and inclusive systems. Empowering future women leaders requires education, mentorship, and leadership opportunities, urging organizations to welcome new voices and individuals to embrace growth opportunities. The goal is a healthcare industry that reflects society’s diversity, a challenging but achievable aim through collective effort. Celebrating International Women's Day is about acknowledging women's contributions to healthcare and advocating for equitable, exceptional healthcare for all. Here's to the women of healthcare: the trailblazers, leaders, and everyday heroes changing the world. Your resilience and leadership are pivotal in healthcare and inspiring across all sectors. Let's celebrate these accomplishments not just on International Women’s Day, but every day. 🌺 #InternationalWomensDay #IWD2024 #BehavioralHealth #MentalHealthAwareness #WomenInHealthcare #Empowerment

MBA candidate and scholar at London Business School - Summer Intern at FTI Consulting - Business Transformation
Yesterday, I attended the #Equall2024 conference, organized by the Women in Business Club. Here are only a few insights I gained from the outstanding panelists and speakers: 1. Beyond pursuing just happiness in our careers, it's essential to align our work with our core values. First, we need to take the time to identify our top values, and then tailor our career path to fulfill them at each life stage. The fact that we don't have to optimize all our values simultaneously and we can optimize one of them at each stage was a perspective I hadn't considered before. (Practical tip: imagine you're at your 90th birthday and someone who knows you well is talking about you, how are they describing you and your life? - this is a nicer version than the funeral speech!) 2. Women's health remains a significantly under-addressed area, both in discussion and funding. It's crucial to raise awareness about conditions like endometriosis and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, which are often underdiagnosed. Additionally, the longevity of women post-menopause raises the importance of more attention and support to this matter. 3. In the face of discrimination, sometimes the most powerful response is to excel and prove our capabilities. By overperforming, we not only challenge stereotypes but also pave the way for other marginalized groups. 4. Building connections is key, especially in male-dominated environments. One practical way is finding common ground and leveraging similarities to strengthen bonds and enhance communication, even when you're the only woman in the room. 5. While allies offer support, having advocates is even more critical. Advocates actively help amplify your voice, leading to greater visibility and opportunities. 6. Addressing the gender investment gap is vital for women's financial security. It's essential to be intentional about our investment strategies and initiate and engage with communities where we can learn from shared experiences, just as men do. I know that correlation doesn't imply causation, but this female-led conference was by far the best-organized event I've ever been to! A huge shout out to the outstanding team that raised the bar for the next conferences. https://lnkd.in/dD-HdZmW #internationalwomensday

To an extraordinary strong women we all are, On this #InternationalWomen’s Day, I want to take a moment to acknowledge the strength and resilience that lies within each and every one of you. We live in a world where women are often expected to carry the weight of others on their shoulders, while quietly bearing the burdens of their own. Where we are told to be soft and nurturing, but also to be fierce and unbreakable. But I want you to know that it's okay to break. It's okay to falter. It's okay to ask for help. Because in those moments of weakness, we find our greatest strength. We find our greatest power. So to all of us who might be struggling in any form of anxiety, or simply the weight of the world on their shoulders, I say this: You are not alone. You are not broken. You are not weak. You are a warrior queen, who has fought battles and won wars that no one else knows about. You are a shining star, who shines bright even in the darkest of skies. Don't let anyone or anything dull your sparkle. Don't let anyone or anything silence your voice. You are powerful. You are strong. You are enough. On this International Women's Day, I celebrate you. I honor you. I stand with you. *Together, we will rise. Together, we will shine. Together, we will change the world.* Happy International Women’s Day !! #IWP #IWP2024 #womenempowerment #diversityandinclusion
