Bijal Writes Her First Book
“During my self-healing journey, I realized how many of our insecurities are formed at a young age. So I published my first book, For the Love of Laxmi, to help South Asian kids growing up in two cultures find a space and moments they can identify with. I am so proud of myself for doing it but also, so glad it's been resonating with the audience from multicultural families.” — Bijal Shah, @bijalshah
Katya Echazarreta Becomes First Mexican-Born American Woman to Go to Space
“Becoming a role model for women and girls interested in STEM fields has been a beautiful journey. I have loved creating a path for them (and myself) into the stars! Today, I am celebrating myself with Diamonds by Pandora piece, which perfectly represent the beauty of the cosmos.” — Katya Echazarreta, @katvoltage
Erin Embraces Her True Self
“When I decided to share with my community, many years ago, that I was queer it was received well by some and not so well by others but I was okay with that because I knew who I was and was beginning to really dive into self love. One thing I didn’t get a chance to do was celebrate that milestone. I downplayed it and never really gave my coming out the proper celebration it deserved. Being able to do that, years later, with Diamonds by Pandora is a surreal moment. So here’s to me, showing up as me everyday and loving every second of who that person is.” – Erin Garnes, @theesperanzamaria
