As a social entrepreneur and healer, I’ve been helping, supporting and empowering women to overcome various crises in their lives, such as emotional trials, relationship issues, mental health issues such as depression and various eating disorders. Over the years I met so many women and I discovered that my true mission in life is to help women in particular and humanity in general. Due to massive inequality issues that women have been facing for centuries, they do require a lot of healing, compassion and love. That was one of the reasons I came up with an idea of She Inspires Me Awards (SIMA) concept.
It was at the beginning of 2020, amidst the global pandemic crisis, when I created SIMA movement. SIMA’s mission is to bring women and men together from all over the world to inspire, support and appreciate one another in these highly challenging and uncertain times. This truly unique project has been a guiding light in the lives of hundreds of women and men across the globe. SIMA movement is growing really fast thanks to my dedicated creative team.
We are currently working on several exciting projects under SIMA’s umbrella (SIMA Academy, Books, Conferences, Music, Fashion, Film Production and Entertainment) to ensure its positive message of unity and hope continues to inspire long after this global crisis is over. I believe in power of creating balance in life and therefore we include men in our community and we have a special
Only together we can build a healthy, balanced society. Collaboration is the key to success, not competition. This vision has also inspired me to come up with an idea of ‘Quarentena and beyond’ book. I wanted to give an opportunity to She Inspires Me Awards Nominees, Awardees and Ambassadors to share their remarkable stories of personal transformation, growth and achievement during the times of hardship and uncertainty. The book includes 47 stories of inspirational leaders from diverse backgrounds and fields of expertise from all over the world. I truly believe that these stories will help readers to get truly inspired and motivated to use the crisis of 2020 to their advantage, to transform and dramatically overhaul their lives. I want our readers to find strength and motivation to move forward and use lessons of this pandemic, adapt fast to the new environment and create a brand new, successful and abundant life they truly desire.
