Sakhee: An Introduction

I can live without romantic love

but I can’t survive without

the women I call friends

they know exactly what I need

before I even know I need it

the way we hold space

for each other is just different

-Rupi Kaur

This poem from Rupi Kaur symbolises the essence of The Sakhee Collective.

As women, we lead complex lives. We have a lot on our plates - from taking care of our families to achieving our ambitions, we juggle multiple roles every day. We feel deeply and are driven by our emotions, which can be our biggest strength and our biggest challenge.

It's important to acknowledge and understand the nuances of a woman's life and create a safe and supportive space where we can connect, inspire, and learn from each other.

“The Sakhee Collective celebrates the diversity of female experiences by exploring topics that deeply impact the essence of being a modern woman. We are a collective run by women, for women. We are inherently rooted in Indian culture and heritage and are committed to building and sharing narratives that emerge from evolving conversations across the Indian spectrum.”

Your voice is powerful and deserves to be heard and we are here to listen. We are dedicated to hearing your wants, needs, yearnings, fears, expectations and stories of breaking the norms to lead the life you want. At The Sakhee Collective, we believe that the power of collective knowledge and experience can drive change. We want to provide a safe space for unveiling cultural and authentic narratives through literature, poetry, music and visual art to capture the essence of our experiences and connect with peers on a deeper level. 

We invite you to join our community of women and be a part of our journey to empower and inspire each other. 

So let's raise our voices, share our stories, and cheer each other on!
