Nine years ago today, with a symphony of emotions playing in our hearts and five pieces of luggage, my family and I embarked on a journey to a new beginning. We landed in Boston, which promised hope, opportunity, and a haven for dreams.

As the autumn leaves fall and mark the anniversary of our arrival, I am filled with immense gratitude and warmth for the love, friendship, and opportunities this land has bestowed upon my family and me. Today, America is not just a place we reside in; it is home, a nurturing abode where my children’s laughter echoes, creating melodies of joy and contentment.

In the embrace of this loving homeland, I am thrilled to introduce you to She.Work, a vision born from a heart filled with gratitude and a desire to give back to the society that has cradled my family and me in its generous arms.

She.Work is not just a platform; it reflects my journey and is a beacon of my gratitude. It’s an offering, a small token of appreciation for the embrace that warmed our hearts in times of uncertainty and despair.

Of course, our journey was not always paved with roses; the intertwining paths of thorns and petals crafted our story as every immigrant family. The initial years were like treading through a mirage of shadows, where the chill of the unknown replaced the warmth of familiar faces. But every challenge encountered was a melody in our symphony, each note resonating with resilience, courage, and unwavering hope.

Today, as I look into my children’s eyes, I see the reflection of the opportunities and life that America has generously gifted us. The laughter that fills our home is a testament to the life of contentment and belonging that we have found in this beautiful land. And now, I want to bring an additional echo and the hue of our shared dreams that I get to you with She.Work.

She.Work will be a haven where stories of triumph and resilience find a place where every woman’s voice is celebrated and heard. It’s where the seeds of your dreams find the fertile soil of support, encouragement, and shared experience. It’s a garden where the blooms of your aspirations are nurtured with love, understanding, and mutual empowerment. We will read real stories, and we will share real experiences.

She.Work is not just a platform; it reflects my journey and is a beacon of my gratitude. It’s an offering, a small token of appreciation for the embrace that warmed our hearts in times of uncertainty and despair.

In the embrace of She.Work, I extend to you the same warmth, opportunity, and support this beautiful country has gifted me. It’s an invitation to join a place where every dream is valued, every journey is honored, and every woman is empowered to soar to the pinnacles of her aspirations.

As we step together into the light of She.Work. Let’s weave a tapestry of shared stories, collective growth, and mutual empowerment.

Let it be a journey of giving back, of sharing the ideas and opportunities that have illuminated our paths in the embrace of She.Work, let us find a home where our spirits flourish, our dreams take flight, and our lives are filled with the boundless joy of mutual growth and support.

Welcome to my dream; it was a seed at the bottom of my heart for a while. Now, it is a reality. I spent days and nights designing, coding, searching, and writing, but mostly, finding the Pinar, hidden for nine years.

To each individual, I have had the privilege to encounter and every experience that has graced my journey:

Your contributions, whether they arrived as challenges or triumphs, have intricately woven the extensive tapestry of my narrative. Each interaction has been a stepping stone, enhancing my professional and personal growth and solidifying my resilience and profound appreciation. Your collective impact resonates within the corridors of my professional endeavors, echoing invaluable lessons and celebrated achievements. Your indelible mark flourishes as a testament to collaboration, mutual growth, and perpetual gratitude within my professional and personal landscape.

With sincere appreciation and warm regards,

Pinar Ozyigit
