FLO Hyderabad, led by Ms. Prathibha Kunda, welcomed actor, author, and cancer survivor Lisa Ray for a heartfelt session titled “The Many Lives of Lisa Ray” at Radisson Blu, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. The afternoon brought together FLO members and women entrepreneurs for a candid conversation that moved between fame and fragility, purpose and pause, struggle and strength.
Lisa spoke openly about the many lives she has lived- model, actress, writer, patient, mother and how each chapter taught her to come home to herself. With no script or pretence, she reflected on the joys and losses that shaped her, and the deep work it takes to keep showing up fully, honestly, and on your own terms.
Lisa said during the session, “My moment of peak success was also my darkest hour. I was diagnosed with one of the most incurable blood cancers at age 37. The doctor believed I wouldn’t survive beyond five years—but I didn’t collapse. Something inside me knew I’d be alright.”
A total of 150 women attended the session and got inspired by the journey of actress Lisa Ray. This event was part of FLO Hyderabad’s ongoing efforts to create meaningful spaces where women can connect, reflect, and grow. Whether it’s through powerful storytelling, skills training, entrepreneurship, or wellness, FLO Hyderabad believes in nurturing every side of a woman’s journey—not just her ambition, but her voice, her spirit, and her place in the world.
