The Power of Days--A Story of Resilience, Dignity, and the Fight for Women's Equity by Celeste Mergens Pt 2

Celeste Mergens is a specialist in bridging difficult cultural divides and overcoming trauma. She is the Founder of Days for Girls, a global award-winning organization that has reached 3 million women and girls in 145 countries. She’s filled three passports with global evidence that what connects us is far more than what divides us. Her bestselling book The Power of Days–A Story of Resilience, Dignity, and The Fight for Women's Equity shares proof that we can all make a difference. She has been featured in Oprah’s O Magazine and Forbes and has been named Conscious Company Global Impact Entrepreneur Top Ten Women, and Women's Economic Forum's Woman of the Decade, to name a few.

The journey to overcome one of the world’s most prevalent taboos is proof that no divide is impossible to bridge. This is the story of one woman’s path to create a grassroots effort that has now helped nearly 3 million women and girls in 145 countries on 6 continents—and isn’t stopping there. Every month, millions of girls and women around the world miss school & work during their periods because they don’t have access to menstrual products such as pads or tampons.
