Wondering where HoP vanished for months? Maybe you are instead thinking why did I get an email from Horizon of Possibilities, when did I subscribe to this newsletter? Well, I am at fault, if you are thinking about what HoP is and why you received an email now! I haven’t written an episode in months solely because I took a break for a month and then never figured out how to come back and that break eventually turned out to be for five long months. Well, to be short, I was trying to work out my time management skills and with a lot on my plate for a few months, I set out my priorities and eventually decided to take a break from HoP! But now finally, I am BACK!
First of all, a very Happy International Women’s Day! I chose this day to finally come back because it felt like the perfect moment! Women’s Day is a special moment for all of us. This year the theme is #BreakTheBias and on the same note, I bring an exciting opportunity to all HoPatrons!
The exciting opportunity is to join a workshop I am running on March 13th on the occasion of International Women’s Day 2022. A #IamRemarkable Workshop!
Many of us struggle when it comes to talking about our own accomplishments. Cultural and gender modesty norms, as well as impostor syndrome, can prevent anyone from acknowledging their remarkable attributes and expressing their achievements. #IamRemarkable is a Google initiative aiming to empower women and other underrepresented groups to celebrate their achievements in the workplace and beyond. I am a certified facilitator and this year I wanted to contribute my half to IWD 2022. So I am running this workshop and this seemed the best opportunity for me to come back finally. So I invite all my HoPatrons to this workshop. The aim of the workshop is to work on improving our self-promotion skills and challenge the social perception around self-promotion. The workshop is conducted for 2 hours wherein participants are engaged in discussions and fun exercises to learn the art of self-promotion. I have hosted multiple workshops last year and this year the first workshop I am hosting is on March 13th. I invite you all. I get to meet people from diverse backgrounds during these workshops and learn a lot from my participants too. I love hosting #IamRemarkable workshops and when I receive emails from my ex-participants sharing how the workshop helped them in professional and personal development, it just is the best feeling. If you are looking to either empower your self-promotion skills or meet HoP’s author, this is the best chance!

You can register here. This is open to all! Registration closes on March 11th, 12:00PM (GMT+5:30)
So I am back after a long time and the first newsletter after my break brings you an exciting opportunity! I hope to meet you at my workshop. In case of any queries, you can write to me at gkhop1729@gmail.com.
I am excited to be back and this time I would be writing on this platform once a month! That’s my commitment for now! I hope you will enjoy reading HoP like always and stay connected!
Finally apologies to HoPatrons who were looking forward to reading HoP every week and wondering why HoP stopped. I never left HoP but just kept reading my past episodes to see where HoP was heading! Well I know I have written about different aspects to this date and this time I intend to bring in more insights than facts! It took time for me to come back and I am glad that I took time because it helped me reflect on my work. So finally all my readers I hope that you continue reading HoP like you always did and my best wishes to all of you!
Stay safe and healthy!
Best Regards
