  I attended a women-only gathering today, and it was truly a vibrant experience. Women of different age groups came together, each carrying immense potential and the capability to contribute meaningfully towards making the world a better place. The event was hosted by Mr. Shabbir, founder of Sensage, with the intention of harnessing and streamlining women’s contribution and leadership within the community. Many notable personalities were part of the gathering, including Ms Maria, Aisha, Dr Afreen, Nahida, Asra, Husna, Ishrat, Dr Pareen, Tayabba, Nabila, Simran, Namra, Iman, Noorain, and many others. What especially stood out to me were the dynamic young women who are still pursuing their undergraduate studies, yet already possess such clarity, confidence, and leadership potential. The keynote speaker was Dr. Ruha Shadab, founder and CEO of LedBy— young in age, yet far ahead in vision and impact.

By Moqheeta Mehboob Working within any system is never easy. Every profession comes with its own pressures and downsides. Yet, I can say with confidence that teaching is one of the most challenging professions of all. You may disagree with me—and that’s fine—but allow me to explain why. I speak from personal experience. I have spent years in the classroom as a teacher, living through the daily realities, deadlines, emotional demands, and silent battles teachers face. Those years shaped me deeply. Today, as a School Development Director, that experience gives me the insight to guide both school owners and teachers on what needs to change and how to correct systemic mistakes. If someone works with machines and tools, the pressure is still real—but predictable. When you work with human beings, and especially with young, impressionable minds, the nature of the work changes entirely. You are not just “doing a job”; you are shaping lives, identities, and futures. Across the world, the percen...
