2017’s second #ProudToBeAWoman talk had a special guest: Nika Diwa, a power woman who quit her career as a successful fashion buyer to dedicate her time to Reveal, a non-profit organization that supports women who suffer from abuse, human trade and domestic violence.

On February 16, at Josefinas Flagship NYC, Nika shared her inspiring story and explained to the audience how fashion brands can help change the lives of women at risk.

All women matter. All women are worthy. Fashion is a powerful tool we can use to show our authenticity and to cultivate our self-esteem – this was the main message of Nika, who, in an intimate, brave and cozy moment, gave voice and meaning to true feminine power.

Nika inspired us to keep fighting for women’s rights and to keep fighting so that each woman across the globe can recognize her value. In a world where abuse and inequality are frequent, women must know they’re capable of extraordinary achievements and worthy of all the respect.
