Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

We hear of babies being dumped in garbage, being left on the streets, abandoned in hospitals. Ever wondered what happens to them? The risk that these little lives have- of being contracted with diseases, of being left to die, of being adopted by persons for illegal activities- rarely is anyone fortunate to fall in safe hands that secure their future. The orphans of India- some who live in orphanages while some we come across on the streets either begging or selling stuff.
Championing for the cause of these innocent children is Poulomi Pavini Shukla, a lawyer, writer, and humanitarian who is passionate about the plight of India's orphans. She is a Wharton School alumna who is also interested in economic theory research and is a close observer of court proceedings in the fields of policy formulation and judicial activism. She frequently finds herself drawn towards writing, reading, and travelling when she has free time that is not consumed with social causes. Her desire to help the underserved, both humans and animals, fuelled her determination to take on one cause at a time and back it up with action.
She is also a fellow adult who shares her adulthood lessons from having lived quite the adventurous life. Having seen women in her family smash patriarchy, she also has been rebellious, so to speak, and has been empowering herself and the people around her. Definitely a role model we all would want to look up to.
So turn up the volume, have a good listen, and if you come across an orphan on your way somewhere, do stop by and have a little chat. It'll make their day and you might be of help to them and aid their empowerment.
