WomenTalk was Conceived in 2011, produced and hosted by Ms Olsen- a woman who wears many hats- she is also an ex-Nominated Member of Parliament of Singapore, presenter and social advocate.
The website is expected to showcase short video interviews featuring Asian women who lead ordinary lives who do extraordinary things.

“The mission of WomenTalk is simple yet powerful: to create a community driven by similar ideals of empowerment of women while serving as a resource and platform that can influence women think and live,” said Ms Olsen.
Each video is in a 3 to 7 minute lifestyle interview format, featuring compelling and moving true personal accounts of Asian women who made a difference in the lives of others around them. Some of these women have overcome personal perils or adversity in life, while others choose to pursue their passion and beliefs. These videos end with their opinions of what empowerment means to them, helping viewers find their own interpretations of empowerment.

Each of these featured women will be given a dedicated page on WomenTalkTV.asia so that viewers can share their comments and views.
