Raise Bold Daughters: Empowering Girls in an Unequal World-A Message for Every Indian Family (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798291390566)

❝ I thought I was empowered-until I realized my education, job, and dreams meant nothing in a marriage built on patriarchy. ❞

"Raise Bold Daughters" is not just a book. It's a movement. A mirror held up to Indian society-and a voice for every woman who's ever been silenced, ignored, or broken by cultural expectations.

In this raw and powerful memoir-meets-manifesto, Punam Sharma-trauma healing coach, counselor, and founder of Girl, You Are Not Alone-shares her personal journey of being raised with equality, only to be shattered by marriage, dowry expectations, emotional abuse, and generational patriarchy.

Through deeply honest storytelling and social reflection, the book exposes:

• How educated, financially independent women still face gender-based oppression

• The impact of "be a good girl" culture on girls' self-worth and identity

• The invisible labor and emotional trauma faced by Indian daughters-in-law

• How boys are raised to feel entitled and emotionally disconnected-and why that must change

• The silent epidemic of domestic abuse, dowry harassment, and financial control

But this is also a book about healing, hope, and power.
Punam speaks not only for herself, but for every woman who has felt invisible in her own home.
