About us

NRI Woman began as a Facebook page in 2016 by two close friends, Bettina Tauro and Ninorah Brookshire. Both Indians by birth but living outside of India. It began with the intention of starting conversations with other like-minded women in the Middle East and around the world. NRI Woman is the first platform of it’s kind where we discuss different topics, share jokes and other inspirational stories. Eventually this was not enough. Aspirations ran high and in one of the conversations we discussed women should be heard and not just read about, thus NRI Woman Podcast came along.
