Women in the medical field gathered in Windhoek for the 4th Hermosa Mimosa Affair, a female empowerment initiative aimed at mentoring aspiring young female doctors.

The Hermosa Mimosa Affair was birthed by Miss Supranational Namibia 2022, Dr. Julitah-Kitwe Mbangula, to continue advocating for the education of young girls, especially in the medical field.

The event provides aspiring female medical students and interns the opportunity to connect with established female leaders in the profession.

Psychological counsellor Kalao |Uiras encouraged young medical students to change the way they take care of themselves and take time off to avoid burnout.

She urged the medical students to be determined and focused, as they will be dealing with people's lives.

Hermosa Mimosa Affair's mission is to bridge the knowledge gap, address challenges such as mental health in the healthcare system, and foster leadership in young women.
