Exploring, Learning, Growing: Meeta’s Experience at Girl Power Talk

• Attracted by the vibrant culture, I found new friends, mentors, and learnings at Girl Power Talk.
• As part of the team, I gained SEO experience and worked with a cohesive team.
• Engaging with Snehalaya children, we created a vibrant and joyful learning session at Girl Power Talk.

A Warm Welcome by Girl Power Talk

Despite my engineering background, I joined Girl Power Talk as a Young Leader in the Marketing and PR department. The vibrant work culture of the organization had a strong allure for me. Everything from the environment to the employees were versatile and supportive. I was genuinely amazed by the inspiring stories and the team’s global mission of empowering youth. 

In my first team meeting, I received a warm welcome from all members of Girl Power Talk. I got to meet various amazing people from all around the world. This marked the beginning of an exciting new journey. Interacting with my new colleagues, I discovered shared interests and passions. The work environment in the company allows everyone to first establish personal connections and then collaborate professionally. 

When you are a new hire, it can sometimes get intimidating. However, I appreciated the pace and convenience of the work culture at Girl Power Talk. The organization fosters an encouraging environment where teamwork flourishes, leading to greater productivity.

My Learning Process

At Girl Power Talk, I was exposed to a lot of new skills and ideas that complimented my learning curve. I had the opportunity to learn about Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and content readability. This was an area that had always intrigued me, but I hadn’t had the chance to fully explore it. Girl Power Talk provided me with the perfect platform to gain insights into SEO and its impact on blog content. 

In my role, I worked on specific blogs, suggesting changes to enhance their readability. This hands-on experience allowed me to apply the knowledge I had acquired and witness the direct impact of those improvements. I also focused on understanding the readers’ perspective and finding ways to make the blogs more captivating.

There were two things I believe that played a vital role in my growth as a young leader. First is the collaborative environment at Girl Power Talk, along with the constructive feedback given by my team members. Sharing ideas and strategies during discussions and brainstorming sessions helped me both learn and improve my work. Working closely with experienced professionals further shaped my understanding of effective blog writing and content optimization.

Giving Back with Snehalaya

Being a part of Girl Power Talk, I had the wonderful opportunity to engage with children aged 6–12 years from the Snehalaya NGO. I was accompanied by my colleagues Ishika Jain, Anusha Muralidhar, Namya Sethi, and Cefiro Samaco. It was both a nerve wrecking and proud moment for me. I was determined to interact with the children and make the session informative and enjoyable for them. 

We went through the educational material such as idioms, puzzles, math problems, trivia, and tongue twisters. I could feel the children’s energy increasing with every question. Witnessing their enthusiasm was incredible and heart warming. Their excitement was contagious, and the teachers struggled to contain the lively and eager kids. The environment became one of growth, vibrance, and joy. It was a memorable experience that brought immense fulfillment to all of us at Girl Power Talk.

During these initial months, I found inspiration in the stories of every Young Leader at Girl Power Talk. Their experiences match my passion for growth and development while working towards a global cause. Being part of a team that is making a positive impact while honing my skills has been a privilege. The connections I have formed with my colleagues and the mentorship I have received has been invaluable. The team has been more than just coworkers; they are my supportive group of friends who encourage and uplift each other. 

Through my journey at Girl Power Talk, I have grown both personally and professionally. The knowledge and skills I have acquired have empowered me to step into my role as a young leader. I am grateful for the opportunities and the trust placed in me to contribute to the organization’s mission. With the support of my newfound friends, I am inspired to continue making a difference. It’s so wonderful to be a part of this nurturing environment and empower the youth in my own unique way.
