• International Women’s Day

    As International Women’s Day is commemorated today, it only seems fitting to celebrate the women of Whispers & Fringes.  Without a doubt, we are grateful for our founder Anu and the vision she has to empower women on a quest for more of God in their lives. Her obedience to the Lord has continually propelled […]

  • Feeling Stuck

    My life hasn’t turned out exactly like I imagined. I didn’t go to my dream college. I scored lower on standardized tests than I would’ve liked. I tried to get into a graduate program twice before I was accepted into one. I wasn’t accepted into my first choice of post-graduate training. I didn’t get married […]

  • Know Your Place

    A few weeks before graduating from medical school, I remember being in the elevator with 2 of my closest friends. I admitted to them that I really didn’t want to leave school…I wanted to remain in the safety of the four walls and just learn stuff. They thought I was crazy. While my friends were […]
