If it takes a village, then sometimes we need to build our own. I couldn’t do what I do without the help of hundreds, maybe thousands of amazing people. They support by donating to the non-profit, serving on boards, and giving their time. They also support by wearing the products from my company Bajalia International Group made by the women I call my global family. They talk and write about the work I am passionate about, they use their circles of influence, they are my cheerleaders, my sisters, and help me personally and professionally. Here are some of the people in my world. Join our Tribe.
