Join the American Malayali Heritage Foundation for the launch of their Wellness Collaborative, an initiative dedicated to advancing holistic wellness among women, with a special focus on the Malayali community. The event will bring together an inspiring panel of leaders, each offering a unique perspective on wellness, identity, and empowerment:

  • Dr. Rosy Thachil – Cardiologist
  • Meryl-Lyn Joshy – Wellness & Fitness Coach
  • Milan Mathew – Fashion & Beauty Influencer

This conversation is designed to challenge cultural norms that often place women last, while encouraging them to prioritize their own well-being as a foundation for stronger families and communities.
