About the project

Profiles of professional women and female entrepreneurs over the course of a year. A glimpse of the person behind the work. No cheese. No fluff. No life affirming quotes.

We're doing it because we are tired of the standard, one dimensional "tell me how you balance family and your career" interviews we read in the magazines. They're boring. We're doing it because the only interesting women in the world aren't Fortune 500 CEOs and social media starlets.

We want to speak to women working as engineers, doctors, designers, lawyers--thriving, managing, and sometimes struggling--and tell their stories, unvarnished.


The trio behind the project

There's Nuisha and there's Nousha. One's from Russia and the other from Iran. Both are living and working in New York City. And there's Kaja from Slovakia. Between us we'll convey the stories of the women we feature: Nuisha with words, Nousha with photographs, and Kaja with illustrations.
