YKB 2020 Partcipants:
Ishita Chordia (She/Her): Ishita is a dancer, maker, student, and lover of nature. She believes in the power of love and the importance of community. She joined YKB to practice owning and sharing her stories and found herself healing and growing in the process. Her biggest strength and joy is to build relationships and connect with others- she hopes her story will help her do that with you.
Gita Sharma (She/Her): Gita has a restless spirit that seeks to constantly challenge and explore. She loves poetry, be it ancient shlokas or contemporary spontaneous formless scribbles. She is participating in Yoni ki Baat because she feels movements like YKB are a manifestation of the rise of the feminine, she feels humankind sorely needs the feminine to assert herself, and she is happy to lend her voice to that assertion and help it reach a crescendo.
Shyamashree Acharya (She/Her): Shyama is a mom of two amazing and kind girls, a storyteller, a writer who etches her heart out on-page, a feminist who believes in equity more than equality, believes in empathy rather than sympathy, a Karate purple belt holder and striving each day for that next belt away,  a Taekwondo Blue belt holder, an avid runner, a fashion diva who believes that she has to dress up and show up every day so her ghost is not a boring white shrouded one.  Her participating in Yoni Ki Baat is to lead her daughters by example, to overcome the ghosts of past, to learn from stories of other women that they are not alone and most importantly, speak your own truth to be relevant in this world.
Akanksha Misra (She/Her): Akanksha is a sensual soul, a globetrotter, mother of two, an amateur performer, and a doctoral candidate in Gender, Women and Sexuality Studies at the UW. She is participating in YKB in order to incorporate storytelling as a part of her feminist pedagogy and to scratch her constant itch to perform.
Neelam Saboo (She/Her): Neelam considers herself a small town girl who has been trying to push her own boundaries ever since she can remember. She loves meeting new people and believes in the goodness of humanity even in the worst times. By day, she works at Amazon to make Alexa better for everyday life and is a proud advocate for diversity and inclusion in the tech industry. By night, she is busy raising two strong and independent daughters, who she hopes will surpass her in every possible way.
