Organicize Your Life Founder Navixha Bagga Speaks on DEI Panel

PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania – Content creator and founder of Organicize Your Life Navixha Bagga is simplifying the complex business of simple daily life, that the human species tends to over-complicate. 

Navixha stands for greater diversity and inclusion of women in business. In August 2021, having led a DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) panel with Senator Katie Muth, Entrepreneur Lauren Powers, and welcomed community members Ila and her daughter Prisha as well. 

 

During the panel, Prisha explained the effects of ethnocentricity in an educational space. “If you fit the stereotype, a lot of the time, that’s all anyone ever sees. My teachers used to have superlative awards at the end of the year,” Prisha says. “I always get ‘biggest reader,’ I used to think that was so funny and I was proud of it, but now it feels like I’m just seen as the Indian girl who reads a lot.” Navixha comforted Prisha with understanding, recounting a time she had confronted a workplace on discriminatory practices, even resulting in a raise for promoting positive company culture.

Navixha previously had spoken with Senator Katie Muth during a Fireside Chat on Facebook Live, welcoming founder of the Association of Professional South Asian American Women (APSAAW), Vibha Agrawal as well. The two women leaders broached many topics during the chat, including social change, solidarity amongst women, and intersectionality.

The Saree 5K Charity Walk

On September 11th, Navixha Bagga organized an immensely successful Saree 5K Charity Fundraiser, with the message of breaking stereotypes and in support of women's leadership. Congresswoman Madeleine Dean and anchor Gina Gannon were the guests of honor at this event, where Navixha presented a unified platform for women across colors or ethnicities - to come together and showcase the mettle and pride of womanhood. To question inequalities and harassment that persist even today, and to continue working together to break barriers and make the world a safer place where women are respected and treated in fairness.

Partially through the walk, participants joyously danced and walked the 5K in the rain. The first of its kind in the United States, the event garnered a great deal of support and committed all funds to women-focused non-profits. With thunderous support from the community, the Saree 5K Charity Walk was a huge success and has sparked hype and interest for this to turn into an annual event.

Navixha on Success

In speaking on success, Navixha Bagga explains the importance of maintaining the right mindset, “Think of this, we rarely miss a beat in supporting, encouraging, and cheering for others,” Navixha explains. “There also comes a time in your journey when you realize, you are worthy of your own support too. I have learned this reluctantly, even with resistance, but I am glad I acknowledged I must be my own cheerleader rather than looking around for others to feed this need for appreciation and support!”

Whether speaking at industry events, promoting a healthy-but-driven lifestyle, and breaking new ground in establishing spaces for women of all backgrounds to come together in support of a great cause, Navixha Bagga moves with a sense of purpose.
