What does it mean to truly know yourself when you’re constantly navigating new landscapes — not just geographically, but emotionally, professionally, and culturally?
The HBR article on self-awareness reminds us that there are two essential dimensions to self-awareness:
- Internal – Who we are. What we value. What drives us.
- External – How others perceive us. How we show up in the world.
But for women on the move — women who are building lives across borders, balancing multiple identities, and translating themselves across systems — that external dimension becomes especially layered.
It’s not just about how others see us.
It’s about how they missee us.
Through bias. Through language barriers. Through cultural assumptions.
And too often, through silence.
That’s why at WEMatter, we see self-awareness as an essential infrastructure for human dignity, social equity, and empowered decision-making.
We make space for that kind of becoming.
✨ We ask different questions — ones that start with Who are you now, and Who are you becoming?
✨ We centre stories too often silenced — especially those shaped by migration, care work, or rebuilding from scratch.
✨ We see through the lens of her lived experience and layered journey, not despite it, but because of it.
Because knowing yourself is powerful.
But backing yourself in a world that rarely makes room for you?
That’s transformational.
Let’s build that room together.
