Tales from one world to another: black women’s workplace struggles mirror caste and gender barriers in Indian corporates.

Legal recognition hasn’t erased stigma; workplaces must actively hire and support trans staff.
Fear of offence often stifles needed conversations about faith based discrimination.
Pack dynamics show diversity strengthens groups, while exclusion weakens survival.
Silence around domestic violence hurts workplaces too. Recognise signs, offer safe support systems & flexible policies to help survivors heal & retain employment.
India’s Domestic Violence Act protects both parties in live-in relationships. Understanding this legal recognition is crucial for safety & seeking rightful recourse.
Cinema often sensationalises domestic violence. Responsible storytelling should highlight realities, survivor strength & pathways to support, not perpetuate myths.
Gaslighting is psychological abuse making victims doubt their reality. Recognise manipulation tactics, trust your instincts & seek support to break free from this.
Women have the right to protection orders, residence, monetary relief & legal aid under India’s Domestic Violence Act. Knowing these enables survivors to be safe.
Consent & boundaries are key. Domestic violence shatters both. Rebuilding starts with respecting autonomy & recognising coercive control as a violation of rights.
Growth isn’t always linear. It’s found in reflection, courage, and community. These stories remind us that change begins when we choose to show up fully and honestly.
When people feel safe, they speak. When they’re heard, they grow. Serein builds that space where awareness isn’t just welcomed, it’s woven into the work.
Borders may divide land, but shared languages, memories, and culture connect hearts. Seeing sameness across lines can be the first step toward healing.
Privilege is what you don’t notice because it protects you. Awareness begins when you do. Change follows when you use it, not just for yourself, but for others.
Career dreams begin in childhood, shaped by gender, family, and context. What we choose and what we leave behind reveals how culture steers ambition over time.
Culture is built through stories, trust, and shared purpose. At Serein, 2017 was a year of learning, belonging, and validation, and a reminder that values scale.
