As a passionate advocate for women’s empowerment, I am Sumbul Sheikh, the first motivational public speaker from Gilgit-Baltistan. I am deeply committed to creating inclusive opportunities and strong support systems that enable women and youth to realize their full potential with confidence and purpose.
As the Founder & CEO of Mindful Mentors Pvt. Ltd. and Vice President of the Women Chamber of Commerce, I work to empower women and young people through impactful initiatives that provide training, mentorship, parenting coaching, and access to resources—helping them build confidence, leadership capacity, and sustainable livelihoods.
A core pillar of my work as a Tech Entrepreneur is supporting women and youth in transitioning from traditional businesses and marketing models to digital platforms. I focus strongly on digital marketing and personal branding, enabling individuals and women-led enterprises to build strong online identities, establish professional credibility, and leverage social media, content strategy, and digital tools to expand visibility, influence, and income opportunities.
I am also proud to be part of Ammar Jaffri’s Vision – Digital Pakistan, contributing to the national mission of promoting digital awareness, cyber responsibility, ethical technology use, and digital empowerment. Through this vision, I actively advocate for safe, inclusive, and opportunity-driven digital spaces—especially for women and youth.
In addition, I serve as a Master Trainer, delivering capacity-building programs with renowned national and regional organizations, including:
Hashoo Foundation
Moawin Foundation
Macam Services Pvt. Ltd.
Gilgit-Baltistan Rural Support Programme (GBRSP)
Anti-Narcotics Control Department
Pakistan Red Crescent Society
My Key Focus Areas Include:
Entrepreneurship
Empowering women to start, sustain, and scale their own businesses
Tech Entrepreneurship, Digital Marketing & Personal Branding
Helping women and youth digitalize traditional marketing, build impactful personal and business brands, and adopt technology-driven growth strategies
Leadership Development
Building leadership skills, communication excellence, confidence, and public speaking mastery
Youth Education & Mentorship
Guiding young people through education, career development, life skills, ethical digital engagement, and professional identity building
Social Awareness & Advocacy
Raising awareness on child abuse, harassment, gender-based violence, public health issues, and digital safety—while promoting prevention, protection, and community-based support systems
I strongly believe that empowering women and educating youth—especially through digital literacy, personal branding, and ethical technology use—are the foundations of a just, innovative, and equitable society. Through collaboration, mentorship, and collective action, we can create a future where women and youth lead with confidence, responsibility, and impact. ✨
