Why we host women-only events
To help women break into male-dominated careers
To promote themes and careers that interest women from different backgrounds
To widen the scope of what a career can be - remote work with flexible hours, side hustles, freelance and full-time jobs
To create a safe, judgement-free learning platform
This is the best community I have been a part of where people talk about ideas, sisterhood is obeyed like a ritual, and where different boot camps, and workshops are done with experts.
Kool Kanya claims to be here to create the workforce of the future. They sure are and I am positive that they will continue to do so. Elated to be a part of this space!
It has been 4 months since I hopped on to the Kool Kanya brigade and it has been an excellent journey.
Their team is extremely helpful and is always ready to guide members, right from skill development to finding employment.
