Mamta Sapkal said that women should be able to listen to the inner voice and only then can one understand her capacities . My mother did not interfere in my decisions , whether it was a choice of education, she felt that I was already empowered.

Sonia Konjeti said that many women are from the background where empowerment is necessary. Empowerment is about equal opportunities. Financial empowerment is important, financial and emotional independence is equally important. Journey becomes easy with the support of men in the family .
