Sakina - Project Lead for Webinars
Overview

Sometime in October 2020, back when I was working with the content creation team and writing team of Yours Mindfully, I had suggested the idea of hosting webinars in one of the feedback forms. The main idea was to reach out to a large number of people at once in a live session. A few days later, I got an email from Anagha, the CEO & Co-Founder of Yours Mindfully, offering me the role of Project Lead for Webinars. We discussed the goals of this project, mainly creating an interactive platform for people with expertise in the area of mental health to share their knowledge with the public and help create awareness, smash the stigma and start a conversation about a bunch of different mental health-related issues.
 
The title we came up with for the Webinar series was "W.I.B.E.S"  which is an acronym for Wellness • Innovative Ideas • Building Bridges • Empathy • Smashing Stigma; all the things we wish to achieve via this project.
