After fifteen years working in global health and gender across fragile and crisis settings, she founded Nannies & More in Dubai — a childcare and early parenthood support company built on the conviction that care is not a luxury, but the infrastructure that enables parents to show up fully, for their families and for their own ambitions.Together, Anushka and Constanze lead ongoing research which found that 70% of women said their ambition stayed the same or increased after motherhood. Their work has driven media coverage, a growing public conversation, and a podcast, Motherhood in Motion, where they explore how women navigate the shifting roles, identities, and seasons that come with becoming a mother and what it looks like to build a life that holds both.Who this evening is forWomen leaders and mothers navigating ambition on their own terms.
