Women's Business Awards!

We are so proud to announce that Premila Puri has been nominated for the Positivity Award in the Small Business Awards!

A bit about the values of the Women’s Business Awards:

• Courageous leaders who are not afraid to challenge the norms of society and try something new.

• Believe in using generosity to empower the disempowered.

• Kindness and compassion, and being a life-giving voice that encourages and supports those around us.

• Creating intentional communities and strategic support systems with women who can challenge us to always be better.

• Strategically collaborate. With a powerful community comes a willingness to learn and truly invest in each other.

We hope that you follow any further announcements and be kind in giving your full support and encouragement to Premila in this nomination process.

Have a lovely summer!

Be kind this summer!

Summer is here and there are so many ways for you to help spread some kindness!

So what can you do to help?

1. Start simple with a friendly “hello” or a “how are you” to people you come across. Social interaction is key to creating a positive mindset.

2. Be inclusive. If you are going to the park with your friends make sure that no one is getting left out. You never know how much a kind gesture like this could mean to someone.

3. Offer to help clean up litter from your local parks or roads. A cleaner environment creates a better lifestyle.

4. Raise money for a charity of your choice. This could be achieved through bag packing in your local supermarket or running a lemonade stand for your neighbourhood. There’s no better way to be kind than to give back to those in need.

5. Donate any unwanted clothing/toys to charity shops or a local shelter. Allowing someone to experience they joy of something that you once experienced is a truly kind gesture.

We hope that you have an amazing summer and remember to always be kind!

Q&A WITH PREMILA PURI

On International Women’s Day, in gratitude to all the powerful, inspiring, courageous and amazing women who’ve paved the way for countless women like me, who continue to push the envelope to tell their stories, who are fearless in their vision, who lend their voices for positive change, and those who lead with compassion and kindness.

Happy Women’s Day to the brave and resilient Ukrainian women who are battling a tough and traumatic journey ahead. I hope the powers that be can step up and do the necessary in welcoming these refugees.
