We live in a man-made world, designed by men, and led by men. However, women played the most active parts in it. There is an increase in social and professional dominance of women across the world. Girl Power! Yeah, just like Spice Girls would do whenever they conquered the...

I have spent my whole life trying to be good and acceptable (or perfect) just to be able to mix with people. Am I letting everyone down? Everyone sees me as a failure. I know I can’t predict the future but some said I should have sensed it before...

I went to Jesselton Artisan Market this afternoon to do some observations as part of my work. I am so delighted to see more women are getting empowered to become successful entrepreneurs (and artisans). As I look through them, I am reminded why it is vital to create inclusive...
