Thank you for opening up a space that I believe more fully represents what societies have to “produce” and offer to the world. Thank you for being so open in expressing the value of every process it takes to care for the “human” side of humanity. Encompassing it all, thank you for taking the time and heart to pull together the resources you’ve worked so hard for, using the talents you’ve been blessed with, to create a worldwide community of women whose individual beauties in heart, mind, and soul can be nurtured into places and people who need it the most.

I could resonate with your energy and love and humbly I would like to let you know how much this event and all the vibration of love emanated from everybody I met, meant to me…Words will never be enough to thank and bless you, WEF and ALL as well.

FKA and myself personally went away richer in every way. Send you all my best

So I really want to thank you again for your wonderful contribution to empower and connect women from all over the world.

The topic of my presentation was on the discrimination and precarious social situation of indigenous Mexican women and their unique role in Mexican society….As an adolescent (17) on the cusp of womanhood, attending the Women Economic Forum was a pivotal experience in my life. At the conference, I began to understand what it means to be a woman with strength and how a supportive community of women can inspire me to grow, achieve my goals and to never let my voice go silent. Being part of this sisterhood had a deep and meaningful impact on me

I went to Portugal inspired by your actions and by the synergy between our purposes

to get women heard and to unite women across geographies. You are a force by yourself

I loved being part of WEF Iceland

Your energy, your supreme intellect & your capacity for organising such a great event is exemplary.

Thank you for your warm hospitality and enabling the chance to meet like minded dynamic women from different walks of life

boost confidence and comfort in our roles, and to utilise other women as resources to grow

cause and movement that you have been spearheading.

I strongly believe that we should involve women from those countries which are not yet part of this graceful platform. I, with the support of Embassy of Armenia to India, looking forward to the discussion regarding the formation of ALL Chapter in Armenia

Meeting you and your kind and sensitive husband was an opening of the heart and mind to know and experience how both of you really care for the growth and well being of others, especially women. I feel blessed and humbled to have received not just an award but the opportunity to stand in your space and feel and absorb the positive vibes and energy that flows in abundance from both if you. The humble way in which Dr Rai and you give to life blows me away. A ‘thank you’ is but an understatement to what I truly feel. It is a deep gratitude and a humble acceptance of your caring and love. I will hold forever in my heart the deep and magical experiences received and taken at the ceremony and conferences that followed. The way everything was planned and arranged with not just meticulous detail , but with such intrinsic sensitivity and caring for the well being and comfort if all who were present and involved in this powerful and far reaching gathering. I send both of you my very sincere thanks, heartfelt gratitude and love. And will always hold both of you dearly in my heart

An excellent contribution indeed! Not only you possess amazing leadership skills, you are also a woman with a golden heart! God bless you !

It is a beautiful and solid platform. I was in the WEF Hague in January 2017. I had an accident in the premises, the sisterhood care and the love I received touch my heart for ever. People who walk through their talk. I am engaged with ALL & WEF from my Heart, Mind & Soul.

Had great session and learnings. Met dignitaries, learnt things, spoke viewpoints.. overall a great event. Look forward for future events.

Many congratulations for the super successful WEF. I am overwhelmed and humbled for bestowing upon me such a prestigious award. It has been a very meaningful learning all thru theplenary sessions, brilliant topics giving us greater insights. I am in awe of your tireless hard work efforts and high enthusiastic energies, a beautiful soul you are.

It was great meeting both of you. Both of you are so dedicated to the cause of bringing all women together under one roof and creating a platform for sharing among all. I really enjoyed myself and also met some wonderful women in Dwarka during the event. Thank you once again !!

I am so honored to be a part of WEF-Women Economic Forum. Meeting Powerful Women from All over the World, Exchanging Similarities, Challenges, Knowledge that we face with in our daily lives from different Backgrounds, Cultures, means a lot. Looking forward to meeting all and Sharing, Uniting Powers and Inspiring Each other. Thank you so much to Dr. Harbeen Arora and all the fantastic Team who put great efforts and hours to make it happen. See you next week

I feel deeply honored to be a speaker on this prestigious platform of WEF. Hoping to absorb every single moment, unlearn and relearn so many things happening around me. It is indeed going to be such an enriching and exciting moment for me. Looking forward to it in May.

I feel deeply honoured for the opportunity to join this global gathering of incredibly inspiring women. The WEF is truly an oasis of female empowerment providing a safe platform for us to come together, redefine our perspectives and expand our horizons so that we can move forward in our individual paths with renewed strength, purpose and enthusiasm. This will be my first time in India and there’s no better way to be introduced to this extraordinary country. I can’t wait!

I must thank you for the most incredible experience of being at the WEF conference in London. It was truly one of the most inspiring experiences of my life! Many congratulations to you and all your team of organisers and helpers for putting on such a vitally important forum for women and men to come together and share life-stories, thoughts and philosophies, which we can only hope will continue to shape and raise the consciousness of our planet.

I was delighted and honored to be Part of WEF Hague and UK, feel connected and looking forward to be working with mindful people doing meaningful work around the globe ???? Also, I am looking forward to part of future events and contribute to this community.

I found all the ladies speaking at the plenaries and discussion groups to be so inspiring, articulate, uplifting. For me it was a transformative event on many levels; to be able to contribute to that outpouring of inspiration to others would be amazing.

I just want to say congratulations WEF London I was so proud and honoured to speak at this amazing , inspirational, wonderful Forum.
The venue was warm and welcoming filled with so many incredible women from all over the world
I had a day that filled my heart with love for my fellow women and their passions and success…
Thank you so much for giving us all this opportunity to connect. Your team was welcoming and helpful with smiles.

It was such an honour to speak to this group of women at the Women Economic Forum UK Conference. I spoke on the impact of social media on economic empowerment. Many thanks to everyone that came out to support me. I came, I saw, I conquered!

After 3 days of complete Bliss, Women Economic Forum has come to an end. Although I am exhausted, I feel empowered, I feel inspired hearing so many incredible stories that came straight from the heart. It restored my faith in sisterhood and humanity!

The 2013 movie “The Purge” left a bad taste in all of our mouths as nothing more than a pseudo-slasher with a hamfisted plot, poor pacing, and a desperate attempt at “horror.” Upon seeing the first trailer for “The Purge: Anarchy,” my first and most immediate thought was “we really don’t need another one of these.”

It was truly wonderful and I loved it. The atmosphere, people you attract and energy you create and emanate is so beautiful and I felt honoured and privileged to be a part of it.

It is my immense pleasure to join such a vibrant and incredible gathering of WEF. I will be delighted to join and interact for future WEF events.

It was such a pleasure being part of the last WEK-UK! I found the energy of the environment very enlightening and empowering. I met wonderful people, from inside-out, made great contacts, and I’m looking forward to build a stronger connection with them.

I love your vision of creating a place where all women come together to share and build a better world. If there is any way that I can help in your mission, I would be glad to do so.

I was very much impressed by the WEF in The Hague and by the quality of people who attended.

Congratulations on completing a marathon event with the same grace, style and enthusiasm with which you started! The event was a joy and the women who are attracted to WEF are strong, intelligent and truly connected by the heart.[WEF-The Hague, Netherlands, 2018]
 
I wish to remind you again of the truly uplifting and world-changing time I experienced at WEF in The Hague (Den Haag). I made wonderful connections with women that have continued to blossom and I know that they will grow in beautiful ways over time — and across continents![WEF-EU The Hague, Netherlands, 2017]

The energy in the sessions, the enthusiasm of women sharing information and growing stronger and more united by the minute was wonderful to see. It was very different from most business events that I have attended or organised because the scope of content was so vast, yet so personal. People came to learn, to teach, to listen, to reveal, to act.

I am still riding on the waves of inspiration, friendship and much more I experienced during the WEF event. You have created a wonderful platform for women all over the world and I am still in awe because of the women I met and the stories I heard. Congratulations and my best wishes for your future endeavours.

Thank you for this GREAT day. Thank you for all your effort, your smile all day long. You are amazing! I am so honored to have been speaking, and I loved it! I loved it so much, I can’t wait till next time.

IndiaThe two days were so fulfilling and I’m sure the takeaway from such a great gathering is something so dear to each one of us who were present there. Meeting such amazing , accomplished people and sharing and understanding each other’s perspective on varied subjects was enlightening. Thank you for you tireless efforts and binding us in the beautiful Shakti Bandhan.

I want to thank you from the core of my heart for the opportunity you gave to those 4 under privileged women of Help Us Help Them.Not only did it give them a platform to share their story, but also inflicted great confidence to face so many people from different walks of life and speak in front of them. In fact Meena Bibi(one amongst the four of them) by the end of the day was so blissful that she said that she seemed to have lived her entire life in that one day. The awards that were given to them were not just trophies for them, but it has empowered them to do more and fight their hardships with more endurance and faith.I am extremely grateful to you and your team for accepting my request, as a women nothing can surpass the feeling of liberation and freedom. I wish you all the best for your future endeavours.

The most incredibly, amazing, generous, open-hearted, learning, sharing, collaborative, rewarding and fulfilling conference I have EVER attended !!!

Thank you once again for the amazing experience that was WEF2016. I returned from India ready to “live bold” and to make a greater impact in the world. I feel I have found a new community and I am extremely blessed.

Thank you again for all at the conference that I was open to. Your hospitality and generosity was so gracious. I was so impressed by all you and your team did and sad I didn’t get more time with you. That is a wonderful idea to spread your inspiration and innovation around the world further.
I would like to do on a larger scale then just my city.

Wouldn’t have expected a better and more positive start of this New Year than being part of this 2 days amazing event. We will all surely work as a team and take Kolkata ALL to a Newer Heights!.

I also want to take this opportunity to THANK you for all your time and contributions to the WEF. It clearly was a LOT of work and your efforts were greatly appreciated by all. .

Thank you for your hospitality and the great job you do. We spent a marvellous week with you and all the ladies from all over the world! I hope beautiful friendships and collaboration will become of this big meeting, filled with love and positive energy! .

Greetings !! Thankful to Justina Mutale for connecting me with Dr. Harbeen Arora.Frankly even though I was interested, I was not sure that I would be able make it, until 3 days before the conference. It was such an uphill battle for me, for many reasons. I also had mixed feelings on what to expect. I wasn’t disappointed at all… It was very beautiful and fruitful, to say the least.

Really enjoyed the conference: tremendous energy and positivity all around! .

All expectations were exceeded. The table of events pulsated with variety and interest exceeded only by the rainbow of saris assembled at the Pullman Hotel in Aerocity New Delhi. The subject matter expanded effortlessly to include entrepreneurship, start ups, spirituality, psychological health, yoga, music in the workplace, parenting, dressing for success, flexi time and my own subject, the role of emotional intelligence in the workplace…‘Feel the energy, feel the love’, was the take away for all of the 1500 female delegates. The common language was one of encouragement and support for other women, inspiring them to go forward in the world and recognise their potential.

Thanks for a great experience and for adding value to me. Keep up the good work Best.

Highly honored to be present and part of the conferences which are a platform for Women to show their shadow – which is that part of their strength which even they have not been aware of! I loved each and every moment I spent in Hague and London. Looking forward to meeting all the soul sisters across the world in May in New Delhi. See you soon and God bless you for the good and humble way you are contributing to mankind.

I want to express my gratitude and applaud you for such a wonderful enriching forum. I wanted to mail immediately and extend my thanks but knew you must be tired after the jaw dropping conference for a week. It was by far one of the best I have attended and feel privileged to be a part of it. Your hospitality and the attention to every little detail is commendable. You and your team totally rock! Never imagined that it was pulled off with so much laughter, joy and grace. I am short of words to express the experience and the learning I have encountered during these three days and I am sure next year I will attend all the days.It was beautiful amalgamation of women, charm and knowledge. I am humbled and motivated by all the women I have met and specially by you. I am sending across much love, happiness and light to you and all your team. I am extremely sorry that I personally cannot convey the same but believe me the feeling is there.

It was so lovely to meet you All last week at Women Economic Forum, what a fantastic meeting of hearts, souls and minds it really way. I have been so inspired by everyone I met, and everything I learned. I am getting an amazing and eye opening experience here in Delhi for my post conference stay. It is a fascinating city of so many contradictions, I think my world view has been permanently altered by what I have experienced and witnessed. I am back home now, delighted to be reunited with my children and friends and family, but will carry WEF with me for a long time yet! So many ideas buzzing around in my mind now – the dilemma is where to start! I figured this was the best place to start!.

It was a wonderful platform we ALL had in Delhi To share our thoughts and experiences with each other. Truly amazing ! Lots of networking ! Lots of fun! Feel so proud of you being from Punjab. A truly Global Daughter !With the most Charming Smile ! And open Heart and Arms.

THANK YOU to such an amazing team – all of you and everyone else that I am aware of and all those working behind the scenes to bring such an amazing and transformative gathering of so many. An experience of a life time that is just beginning. Thank you ALL so much for being who you are, believing and working so successfully together. To the magnificence of collaboration and to this actual living experience of our new world in action. MANY BLESSINGS! And to all the outstanding collaborations yet to come. To the music of life when we sing together.

I thank you so much for you and your team’s brilliant and tremendous achievements in WEF 2016. Organisation in every single detail was perfect and comfortable. I just would like to give you my sincere compliments.

It was such a pleasure to finally meet everyone in person and put a pretty smile and face with your names. I met the majority of you for the first time, but I felt like I already knew you. You all made me feel so welcome, and I am so excited to have more sisters and new friends. “What a pleasure to be in the company of such beautiful ladies both inside and out”
It was such a wonderful, successful Women Economic Forum, thank you for including me into your program. Everyone was having a blast…it’s been a long time since I’ve been to a long conference that was that much fun! I can’t say enough about the location, the atmosphere, the food, and of course the topics for the plenary with parallel sessions! The buzz is already out there about people being excited about the next one because of the hard work and fantastic job you did this year. I can’t wait to watch us grow!! What a group! Can’t wait to see you again in 2017. You really have created an amazing legacy for the ALL and contributed to the history in making! I had an incredible time and inspiring experience! What a wonderful experience!!.

With deepest heartfelt gratitude for a wonderfully inspiring and deeply life changing experience, for my wonderful treatment and for my award – I truly hope I can be of service in some way. I have returned to the UK and to be honest just feel like shedding all my material possessions and living a life of service – like I said, thank you for a truly life changing experience..

The Hague and London where both wonderful events and it was so good to meet so many women that share the same passion as you and I have.

14 days in India 109 Countries. Devine light of human beings .soul sisters and soul brothers. I want to give a special huge blessing to Harbeen Arora, a woman of vision full of love wisdom and compaction, special ability to hold energy for thousands of people so inspiring. Thank you so much. It felt like you were home for all of us. Thank you ALL for your endless support love listening and humble wisdom flowing all day long you gave us blessings, love and powerful presents for our journey.
I am a wounded healer I came to this world to teach what I have to learn. “Dare to voice” is a moment of healing this is my mission.
We are all beautiful musical instruments. We are all equal, 2016 most people in the world are voiceless. This special WEF conference opened a window to beautiful voices. Thank you God “when you heal yourself you are not alone (course in miracles). I had the privilege to Lecture, to sing, to give special workshops and collaborate with my soul sisters from the Israeli delegation and women from the whole world
Thank you so much all of you..

Every once in a great while you get to meet an Angel on Earth. Harbeen Arora is one of those Angels. She is the love and vision that brought together 1600 delegates from 91 countries to unite us all in a global conversation on what is possible in the world. I have rarely witnessed such love and compassion pour forth from one individual. From session to session from conversation to conversation, Harbeen was a light encouraging, supporting and empowering each of us to find our light and shine for the world. Thank you, dear sister, for making my lifelong dream come true. From the conference in New Delhi to Baba’s sitting place, it was truly a magical and life changing experience.

The divine soul, She was a luminous presence through and though. She founded, hosted, curated, facilitated, and nurtured this weeklong summit Women Economic Forum that was the reason I went to India in the first place. I was completely blown away by her embodiment of refined grace, intelligence, presence and beauty. Thank you Harbeen. You are truly an expansive and luminous light in this world.

I was a speaker at the WEF conference in Santa Barbara California in November. The positive energy and fellowship within the group of attendees was unbelievable. I made many new contacts and friends. It was so interesting to meet so many good, accomplished women. Thank you ALL and WEF. The conference exceeded all of my expectations

It was a great grand gala event, beautifully organized and executed with a seemingly effortless flow of its own. It was my pleasure and honour to be a part of it. Thank you so very much.

Dr Harbeen, thanks for all the positivity and super energising approach of ALL. Women have amazing potential that normally remains latent. What a wonderful platform you have created and infused it with ALL empowering simple and brilliant philosophy! May this become the single most powerful movement to bring about revolutionary transformation amongst women and through them in the whole society, nation and the world! You are doing a marvellous job of mobilising and channelising right the tremendous power of the nation that lies in its women force. Best wishes and greater success to ALL.

Yes ! I have been able to create a connection with almost every Indian I meet because of ALL. I am connecting a digital company here with a couple of VC from the forum that I had dinner with…2 of the speakers. India apparently doesn’t have the in depth cyber security companies we have and I have good friends who are CEO and owners of a couple of the biggest in the country.

Thanks Harbeen, your energy and enthusiasm is inspiring. I never knew connecting with such loving, powerful ALL encompassing souls is just a click away.
It feels good to get such acceptance and positivity for your thoughts which till now looked like tough to execute but then I remember God’s words and promise ‘ Take the first step , I’ll take thousand steps’ . Your enthusiasm feels like God’s thousand steps.I am touched.

You have shrunk the distance and brought so many women from across the world together. A great and unique initiative

I have to tell you, the session in May was first of its kind for me. To be in an environment which was so positive and enthralling and meet so many amazing human beings in a few days was just fabulous. Am sure you got lots of thanks and blessings for the amazing forum.
Thank you again for creating this platform and my prayers to keep you strong and motivated to continue to do this great work

I am so overwhelmed and charged with emotion reading your such an inspirational and touching mail. I must thank you at the outset for making me a part of ALL and awakening my latent passion of working for women empowerment. I loved every moment of my presence at the Forum in Goa and what I brought back from there is huge motivation, hope, optimism and enthusiasm that we women,united, can make a massive difference in the world. I have always had a strong desire that, in my humble way, I could do something to transform the attitudes and mind-set of people and interchange it with love, care and compassion. I did have a lot to say but never had a medium or platform like ALL offers to voice and share your inner-most thoughts, ideas and beliefs.
Women Empowerment is my passion and dream. Thanks for giving me an opportunity to live it.
Love and Fond Regards

Yes! We are family! Sisters are we, from around the world! An incredible group of LADIES, with a few good men intermingled. A treasure to expand our networks and have connections in multiple countries with women of like-mind and purpose. Thank you to each woman who shared her heart, mission and soul with me. Thank you to our hosts Vinay Rai and Dr. Harbeen Arora for your generosity!

Got my own copy of Dr. Harbeen Arora book “Creative living”. Have been reading it for my entire journey back home to Warsaw and have to say got very inspired by it. Participating in Women Economic Forum ALL never have I thought that ALL, Dr. Arora and the trip to India will inspire me that much and change my perspective on many things. I am very grateful for being part of ALL and part of the Forum. The book and its author definitely empower creative, positive, colorful change that leads to happiness and love. Thank You Harbeen for being such an inspiration to me and all the women that met this year in Goa. Thank you for making ALL happen.

It was extra ordinary to see so many women from different walks of life connect and empower each other and spread so much possible energy I really must applaud you for the way you conducted the whole forum with so much grace and dignity, it was by chance that I came for this forum and I’m glad I came as I got a lot of clarity of what I want to do now.
I wish you all the very very best for your future endeavours and hope to see you again soon.
-Lots of love

Yes! We are family! Sisters are we, from around the world! An incredible group of LADIES, with a few good men intermingled. A treasure to expand our networks and have connections in multiple countries with women of like-mind and purpose. Thank you to each woman who shared her heart, mission and soul with me. Thank you to our hosts Vinay Rai and Dr. Harbeen Arora for your generosity!

Don’t know what is appropriate – whom do I address first – I heard about Harbeen first and I came with stars in my eyes to experience her, but I actually met Vinay who greeted me as I stepped into this WEF womb of ALL for the first time.
When Rohini shared about the same I didn’t give it much heed for my personal self except to check when she will be in Mumbai before goa or after goa !! so that I could reschedule some stuff on my calendar to make room to hug her, and know more about the Harbeen she gushed about over the phone !!! and then comes a mail from smita shah (IMC member but my cousin too) with a strong message – dipti you must go, this is for you !!!And I landed into this huge melting pot which is cooking a meal whose time has come to serve ….And to top that was meeting so many many women from ALL across the globe who think like me feel like me and cry like me … Especially for the care and trust that is so missing these days !!!I am speechless and still numb from the experience and aura created in every space of Marriot be it round table and plenary’s and interactions and over lunch and even washrooms and … In that we wholesomely drowned ourselves in.
Thank you – to you(when I say you I can’t separate Vinay from Harbeen, so I mean you for both of you ) and to the source of your thoughts and the way you have transmitted the thoughts into action, The thinking that went behind bringing the mix, truly extraordinary !!! Right from selecting the delegates, the speakers the celebrities the approach the round table and the topics, yes as i always say that “we are, but a series of improvement …” so we will evolve even better in the next one, but this in its purpose and attempt was not only divine but awesome!!But it’s not just about creating a great event but actioning and channelising the energy and spirit that was cooked and giving birth and shape to reach it out to touch the masses…I am a mix of all emotions inspired envious motivated exhilarated amazed delighted hopeful and in anticipation of the impact that ALL will created and I wish that ALL succeed in ALL its endeavours.

I must say candidly, Harbeen..that your forum has got some change in me..One reputed designer was in a ‘cold war’ with me..& I was also treating her dry in return..But after coming from Goa,..I realized that I shouldn’t be a cribbing, complaining woman & should try to break ice..& I praised her for her work publicly, & that’s what she was waiting & now, she has become a support to me -:).

The Forum was a Mega Success!!!!!.CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!It was a very good gathering and very good speakers and very well planned programmes.Thank you for including me as part of this prestigious event .The photographs shows your efforts.Please convey my congratulations to Harbeen n Vinayji and of course the whole team,who had put such hard work to make it happen perfectly.

I attended a women’s networking luncheon on taking our work/businesses global and met Ann Webb who is the All Ladies League Chair for Utah. She offered the opportunity to go to India to the conference and participate. Easy choice! I chose to extend and travel for a month beyond that. This was the inaugural year for the WEF Women’s Economic Forum based out of India and promoting dialogues, collaboration and solutions for women’s concerns locally, nationally and globally. I learned more in 4 days of being there than I could in a year of working at it from the U.S. I will be there next year!

Congratulations for organizing this historic forum in Goa. This was really a Herculean task of gathering distinguished professional, experts and leaders from across the Globe. It is most impressive that you were able to get together such an illustrious group of renowned people from the different continents. The discussions were rich, informative, thought-provoking and worth more than endless hours of reading. History was made in those short three days and I don’t know if it would be possible to wait for another one that can come close to the breadth and depth of this forum and the excitement generated from it. I was so elated with all the discussions, heart to heart talks with some new found Indian friends that I felt I could sit through more days of such impressive discussions and deliberations. The beauty of the forum was that everyone wanted to work with each other and was eager to work for building trust and understanding.
Thank you so much for organizing the most exciting, stimulating and memorable historic event. I must thank both of you for making the impossible possible.

My passion for health and fitness directed me to pursue a career in the fitness industry, and in 2010, I did just that and started an incredible journey. With no prior experience or “official” education in the field, I truly started from scratch. My hunger and desire to be the best pushed me to acquire multiple high level fitness certifications, go through intensive courses and programs such as Olympic Weightlifting, Precision Nutrition, Kettle bells, and Pre-Post Natal and excelled in all areas. I officially started my career at the Equinox Fitness Club on Wall Street as an entry level trainer and worked my way up rather quickly. I became one of the top trainers in the club in just a few months and later became the first female to rise to a management position in just a little over a year. After 3 years in management, and several achievements and success stories, I decided to leave Corporate America behind and retired from my position to pursue my deeper passions and entrepreneurial dreams. It was the greatest decision of my life and am grateful for all I learned and experienced during my time there.

Janet has lived and worked in Botswana, Pakistan, Lesotho, and Malawi and has worked on various education development efforts in more than 30 countries. Janet’s primary passion is making certain that all children have a chance at a successful future and equitable access to education. One of the highlights of Janet’s professional career has been as the Country Director for the successful Social Mobilization Campaign for Girls’ Education in Malawi. Eighteen years after the conclusion of that project, the impact can still be seen throughout Malawi – in the girls who have finished school and grown up to be change-agents in their own right, in the successful local NGO that emerged as a key player in social mobilization throughout the region, and in the country-level professional positions now held by many of the university students who worked with her on the mobilization campaign.
More recently, Janet helped establish a workplace-based Early Childhood Education Center in Lusaka, Zambia. The ECE Center was designed as an employee benefit that caters to the children of employees. In this way, employees (especially women) know that their children are in a safe learning environment close to their place of work, and children are learning the skills necessary to be successful in school, in a dynamic and fun environment. Now living back in her home state of Illinois, in the U.S., Janet has been sworn in as a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA). A CASA is appointed by judges to watch over and advocate for abused and neglected children, to make sure they don’t get lost in the overburdened legal and social service system or languish in inappropriate group or foster homes. A CASA stays with each case until it is closed and the child is placed in a safe, permanent home. Through the CASA system, Janet has found a way to continue to feed her passion to support children who need that special attention necessary to give them the chance to be all they can be.

I established Kaleidoscope Arts to focus on interfaith relations and expressions of spirituality through performing and visual arts. I have been actively involved as an expert commentator speaking on issues of violent extremism and radicalisation of young people through television appearances on various satellite channel and BBC Asian Network radio. As a natural organic progression, I become to look into setting up my own organisation to tackle the issues I felt contributed toward the vulnerabilities of becoming radicalized in women and young people.
In May 2015, I stood for the General Elections as an Independent Prospective Parliamentary Candidate for the constituency of Edgbaston. I managed to gain a great deal of popularity and support from the local schools and religious centers due to the strong stance I showed against radicalisation and what my understanding of religious cohesion and gender equality should be.
Post General election, I have returned my focus to the issues of safeguarding Young people and tackling radicalisation in communities through my voluntary involvement and support of various Counter Extremism initiatives such as the West Midlands police CTU initiative: Our Families Our Future, Preventing Tragedies and so on. I have launched my own organisation; Women Against Radicalisation Network which will be working at grassroots engagement empowering engaging and educating women who may be at risk whilst providing safeguarding for families against radicalisation. Prior to this, I was the official Media spokesperson for the Home Office based Open Your Eyes Campaign against ISIS for which I regularly provided media interviews and written articles. This campaign was launched to provide a platform from which victims’ of Daesh Atrocities could safely share their experiences and the harsh diabolical realities of living under Daesh occupation. It was through Open your eyes and the work I do with Amar foundation, many people were made aware of the sexual exploitation and enslavement Daesh carried out of young Yazidi girls an addition to this, I am involved in various local initiatives working on Interfaith and Intrafaith cohesion, gender equality and opportunities.

I have been a panelist for the BBC Asian Network The Big Debate”. on numerous occasions as well as featuring as an expert speaker for BBC Radio 4 The Women’s Hour, BBC Radio 5 Live and local BBC radio stations
I am fortunate to have forged great links with various high profile ministers and international level celebrities who would be accessible to me.
The advantage of being a local activist is I am in touch with communities at grassroots level with an in depth understanding of issues that affect them. This helps me address topics during debates and discussions with either politicians or journalists head on.

Two years ago, approaching my 40’s, having been worked at different positions for big and small companies in Bulgaria for more than 17 years, I felt the impulse to change my life. The sensation erupted like a volcano and did not leave my thoughts. I just felt I was ready. I had the willingness, the competence, the motivation and the braveness to „leave the big safe ship“ and get on board on my raft, stop being an employee, embrace entrepreneurship. I was ready to try, I was ready to face both success and failure.
Being a yogini for many years, having this innate passionate love and worship to our mother Earth, the pursuit to beauty, harmony and inspiration, I chose the symbol of my country, our national flower, the Bulgarian Rose, as a beauty and harmony ambassador in the western society which is becoming more and more conscious trying to re-establish its connection with Nature.
And less than one year later, at the beginning of 2017, my dream, the project Teya Organics, was born.
The company is an exclusive importer and distributor for the Netherlands of Alteya Organics – one of just a few selected companies in the world that are true Organic Beauty companies and have its own Organic Rose Fields in the Rose Valley of Bulgaria, operating under strict biodynamic, sustainable and socially responsible practices.
I chose to present exactly this brand because it is valuable with its sustainability, being not only certified organic, but also offering protection and care for the environment and providing support for the local communities, improving their lifestyle and offering them a healthy work environment.On 6th of February 2018 Teya Organics celebrated its first anniversary.
The divine fragrance and the unique ability to rejuvenate, beautify and inspire of one of the most valuable and precious pure essential oils in the world, the Bulgarian Rosa Damascena Essential Oil, enwoven deeply into the very essence of Alteya Organics skincare lines, secured its well-deserved place on the Dutch market of Natural and Organic personal care products.
