"As far as life philosophies go, "The right time is right now" isn't a bad one. Most of us would benefit from a greater bias toward action.

If you move fast, you can try more things. And if you try more things, you're likely to find something that works for you."

This international women’s day, “make some noise”! Think about the structural issues that hold people back. Ask, how do we elevate the under represented and the unheard?

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Representation matters. Intersectional approaches to inclusion are essential. Diversity makes everyone's teams, science and lives better. #IntersectionalMed #WomenInScience #WomenInMedicine

There is no gender equity without facing racism. The most efficient path towards Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Belonging and Justice is Intersectional. #IntersectionalMed

Paying respect and listening to Lata Mangeshkar whom we named my daughter after because my father loved her singing - a legendary woman and voice #RIP #Lata #NightingaleofIndia @mangeshkarlata

My 3 kids vaccinated today, was great to see long lines of kids rolling their sleeves up.

[Dr Kate Gregorevic @DrKGregorevic]

People saying they want the holidays extended should say it how it is: it’s calling for schools to be closed and being fine with kids missing yet more education. It would be far more useful to open schools, educate children and start school-based vaccination programs.

Again GPs & the community are hampered by unreliable vaccine dose supply. ‘We have no doses’: Australian GPs say they will struggle to vaccinate children before school year begins | Australia news | The Guardian ⁦@DrMukeshH⁩ ⁦@DrJaredDart⁩ https://t.co/AhXkxncwk7

The Omicron variant of Covid-19 is killing people across the globe and should not be dismissed as mild, the World Health Organisation insisted on Friday. https://t.co/DIat8QWR0S

A reminder: to be better, hold himself to a higher standard, & to keep giving back to the community. This is what the #AusoftheYear Award means to 2021 QLD #AusoftheyearYear, @dineshpalipana. Join Dinesh in celebrating the 2022 recipients on 25 Jan 7:30pm (AEDT) on @abctv

[Nisha Khot (She/Her) @Nishaobgyn]

Why should migrant women take on #leadership roles?
Because- if you are not at the table, you are on the menu.
So claim your place at every decision making table & make room for others to join you at the table.
