A Remarkable Day Celebrating Balance, Recognition, and Empowerment

What a remarkable day it has been! It was filled with joy and significance, especially when Nancy Shukri, Minister of Women, Family and Community Development of Malaysia, mentioned my book during her opening speech and took the time to have a conversation with me.

And then came the award, which holds a special place in my heart. Such recognition not only inspires other women but also motivates them to seek their own equilibrium in life. This particular award celebrates the breaking of the stereotype that women cannot "have it all." It affirms that with the right mindset, dedication, and effective time management, women can successfully navigate both their personal and professional spheres.

"The Millennial Mom," my debut book as an author, serves as a valuable guide to achieving a happy and balanced life. It is a testament to the fact that with determination and the right tools, anyone can find their own version of fulfillment.

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has consistently shown me love and support. Your encouragement has been instrumental in my journey, and I am deeply thankful.

A day to remember

September 8, 2023 - It was a day filled with joy, inspiration, and the kind of recognition that not only makes you proud of your accomplishments but also encourages you to continue pushing boundaries.

The occasion was the Women Empowerment Conference, a gathering of women from diverse backgrounds, all dedicated to creating a more equitable world for themselves and the generations to come. As I sat among these incredible women, I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by the sense of unity and determination in the room.

A remarkable mention

The day began with an opening speech by Nancy Shukri, Minister of Women, Family and Community Development of Malaysia. Her words resonated with the audience, emphasizing the importance of women's empowerment and the need to break free from traditional stereotypes.

What truly touched my heart was when she mentioned my book, "The Millennial Mom," during her address. It was a moment of pride and humility, knowing that my work was contributing to the ongoing dialogue about women's roles in society. Minister Shukri's acknowledgment of my book gave it a broader platform and signaled the importance of its message.

An empowering conversation

Following her speech, Minister Shukri took the time to have a conversation with me. We discussed the challenges faced by modern women in balancing their personal and professional lives. Her insights were enlightening, and it was clear that she shared a deep commitment to empowering women to pursue their dreams and aspirations.

Our conversation left me feeling even more inspired and affirmed in my mission to help women find their own equilibrium in life. It reinforced the idea that women should never be confined by societal expectations and that with determination and the right support, they can achieve anything they set their minds to.

A special award

The highlight of the day was the presentation of the "Breaking the Stereotype" award. This award recognizes women who have shattered traditional norms and demonstrated that they can indeed "have it all" – successful careers, thriving families, and personal fulfillment.

Receiving this award was an incredibly humbling experience. It was a testament to the countless hours of hard work, dedication, and passion I had poured into my book and my mission to empower women. But more importantly, it was a celebration of the idea that balance is achievable for every woman, and success doesn't have to come at the expense of personal happiness.
