Mollynn's Profile: Dr. Mollynn Mugisha-Otim was born, raised in Uganda and has lived in The Netherlands since December 2006. As an expatriate in an inter-cultural marriage, she is also raising 2 multi-lingual children in The Hague. She has over 10 years’ experience working in early childhood education. She is an author, including #sosaidgrandma and owner of Mollynn Cares who enjoys teaching others to live life to the full with great knowledge, good health and a positive outlook on life. At each phase of her journey after leaving Uganda, she insisted on integrating but not losing her identity, culture and language - something she has tried to transfer to her 2 young kids. She was clear on what she wanted to achieve but was not always certain how, but she did not allow that to discourage her.. 💜.. . .
She focused on what she had and what she could offer and this approach enabled her secure her first job outside her medical background at a small company dedicated to children education. Mollynn, though a busy mom and interested in so many activities, at work, home, church and other social spheres is focused on contributing towards enabling children of different cultures, thrive and fulfill their optimum potential while embracing their own identity. This she encourages by starting with her own kids and by writing 2 books with the latest entitled "So Said Grandma" which are wise quotes from her grandmother... . . ..... . . .
Mollynn challenged us all to focus on what they can give, and do what they each could do with the means available, and not let limitations like time or skill discourage us. Thank you to all our participants for attending the session -

Summary of the Audio: Gaayathri spoke on the concept of rejection and gave some pertinent and transformative perspectives on how to reframe rejection and use it as an educational resource to help navigate through difficult times and challenges. She tied back the concepts to her own life, growing up in a toxic environment surrounded by racial and ethnic discrimination from different groups of people. She touched on the three distinct misconceptions of rejection (rejection being used as a feeling, as a social construct, and as a measuring tool) and how these have been constructed by society to keep undermining our worth. 🤎
