Dear Reader
Firstly Thank You so much for supporting a passion project like Feministaa. I am eternally grateful to you for reading, watching and engaging so gracefully with the content that me and my team have strived to create for you. Since, I have personally very rarely spoken about this platform, during the second innings of my media company (shut down during COVID), I want to be more interactive and vulnerable with Feministaa’s readers.
Feministaa is a platform that I had started along with my cofounder Vidhi Sagar, in 2015. We aim to grow into an all-inclusive, and empowering woman-centric platform. The Media company will be a space that fuels unstoppable growth and prosperity, both personally and professionally, amongst aspirational Indian women.
We at Feministaa are striving our best to give you authentic, insightful, and inspiring pieces of content. With the grace of our well-wishers, friends and a super strong community of supporters, despite Covid, we have bounced back.
In the last eight years, Feministaa has beautifully culminated into a space where women can voice their real opinions and thoughts. Many ideas/topics of interviews at Feministaa have culminated from personal experiences of the founders, writers and other team members.
My personal reason for building a platform was because I could never find the right mentor while working at a corporate organisation. There were hardly any working women in and around my life, even in office! I also found it very surprising that most people lacked empathy towards problems related to working women. Either because women wouldn’t speak up, or because most women wouldn’t continue to work after marriage or children. Intuitively I felt that content can change this. Content can bring about awareness, and information towards myths regarding working, ambitious, achievement oriented women.
My first ever book, that was my mentor and guide; was Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In. And that’s when I first realised that this is a global problem. When I started interviewing women, I realized that our struggles were so relatable, and their stories were extremely helpful in answering questions related to dilemmas of women having personal and professional struggles.
As the very first step towards a new post-pandemic world, I present to you the latest version of the Feministaa website.
Keep in touch and Keep interacting with us.
We hope to keep serving our readers and watchers with better content and varied perspectives and the truth.
Regards,
Medha Mukherjee
