What a weird year! 2020 has been challenging in so many ways. At the same time, many of us have taken this year as an opportunity to self-reflect and develop ourselves, on both a personal and a professional level. At Femme Palette, we’re glad that we could support you through all of this year’s ups and downs. To close out 2020, we wanted to share a year in review of all the initiatives that you were a part of and helped make a reality. Here are some of our big milestones this year.
If the pandemic has taught us one thing, then it is the ability to adapt. From balancing housework with our job requirements to homeschooling and sharing the same workspace with your partner.

If you have long had an idea in mind but have struggled to introduce it to the market, what are you waiting for? Now is the best time to give it a go.

After having worked from home for many months now, our bodies have started to feel the difference. We don’t walk to work, we barely go and grab lunch outside, and instead, we spend most of our days sitting at the computer. How can we support our bodies and maintain good health in the future?

Last year we launched a new initiative called the Ambassador program to help create women’s support group in the companies. The Ambassadors are creating a safe space within the company to discuss any career related questions to help women thrive in the workplace. Read about the experience of our ambassadors Julia Gumeniuk and Teodora Stojšin from Kiwi.com.
