The “Women Who Win” book launch on June 2nd was a success! After a lovely dance celebrating what it means to be a woman, the panel discussion began. The panel featured the three authors of the book — Dr. Manju Sheth, Dr. Deepa Jhaveri, and Shaleen Sheth, the two guests of honor, Navjot and Nithya Singh, and was moderated by Dr. Kathryn Moncrief and myself.

“Women Who Win,” written during the pandemic, is a collection of inspirational stories from a variety of women across the globe, from all kinds of fields and backgrounds. What makes this book so special is the fact that the women featured in this book are women you would encounter in your everyday life — a friend, a neighbor, a teacher, someone in your town — but their passions, perseverance, and resilience still leap off the page. During the panel, we discussed those themes, the stories that really resonated with us, the process of researching and putting together a book from start to finish, and the importance of DEI and women’s empowerment in today’s world — particularly in the healthcare industry. The event ended with a confidence walk, and an ice cream and snacks social.

Thank you to all who attended, and please stay tuned for the next Women Empowering Women event — A power packed ramp walk of Confidence on August 24, 2024!
