Hello everyone, and a heartfelt welcome to our special International Women's Day episode of "The Power of Women in the World of Tech" podcast! I'm truly excited to conclude Season 4 on such a powerful note. This year, International Women's Day's campaign theme is 'Inspire Inclusion.' This subject serves as an awful reminder of the importance of diversity in our efforts to achieve gender equality. Inclusion goes beyond just inviting women to the table; it's about valuing their voices, perspectives, and contributions. When we embrace inclusion, we create a world where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of their gender. My Name is Neelima Mangal, your host, and today, as we wrap up Season 4, we're here to celebrate women's achievements with the theme "Climb, Lead, Succeed: Together We Rise." As we celebrate International Women's Day, let's also remember the importance of self-celebration. Often, we seek validation from others, forgetting to appreciate our own achievements. It's essential to acknowledge your worth, journey, and accomplishments, no matter how big or small.  Celebrate yourself and be proud of the person you've become. So, take a moment today to celebrate yourself. Acknowledge your hard work, resilience, and determination. Remember, the responsibility for celebrating your achievements lies with nobody else but you and it's never too late to do so. Happy International Womens Day
