The Lecture - Proud Mother
In the lecture “Proud Mother” I open a window into my experience as a woman and a mother, during a period of significant change in my life and the lives of my children and family.
This is a story about parenting, which does not always meet our expectations, about the importance of choosing the right way to deal with a crisis, and about creating a new reality that supports, strengthens, and unites.
The lecture is an inspiration for determination, positivity, falling into the abyss, and regrowing to a full and happy life, especially in times of crisis, any crisis.
Partners in the Journey - Recommending Organizations
Participants share – experiences from lectures and trainings
A change in perception is created by advocacy and social engagement
I believe that actions speak louder than words and the time to implement a profound change in perception is now.
In addition to lectures, trainings and advocacy activities, I actively and consistently participate in debates in the Knesset and government ministries
and partner with organizations that work to help trans children and youth and promote gender equality.
Perceptual change is created through outreach and social engagement
