Verlaine-Diane Soobroydoo: How to Heal & Reset in Leadership | 14

Today we’re talking with Verlaine-Diane Soobroydoo, a humanist growing up with a Mauritian Indian mother and Congolese father, has taken an unconventional journey of leadership from a career at the United Nations to a published Author. When COVID-19 hit, she felt that the dust settled, realising there is some work she needs to do for healing and her reflections resulted into her first book "Unbound Twitter Thoughts for the Heart and Mind". Aya and Verlaine talk about Writing as a healing, Freedom, Womanhood, resetting, the gift of being, and letting go. Verlaine also talked about the people who "hold on to their old leaves, they think they will com back to green, and that it’s still my time". Some of Verlaine's advice : Remove people who would activate your woundsFree dive into the cycle of lifeIf you’re not whole within yourself, you’re not able to recognise pain within othersIts not the job that makes you , you make the jobGo get these leadership positionsBe free - Freedom of being whole and pursing every level of oneselfHome is where we need to beWomanhood as a trip to wholeness, You have to take a trip to find yourself, find your voice and find courage.-------------------------------------------------Want to support the Nala Feminist Collective? Visit our website to learn how you can help: nalafem.orgLearn more about the Africa Young Women Beijing+25 Manifesto and how you can help the young women of Africa create a better life for future generations.nalafem.org/manifestoFor collaboration and sponsorships contact aya@nalafem.org
