Here is what she has to say about her journey.

“I am a graduate and a mother. My husband is into the service field and has no steady income. I have been seeing him for a decade who works round the clock but fails to pay the bills. Being a feminist I had to ask myself ‘Am I not equal to share his burden?’ Eventually, I started working to earn a few bucks. We were happy and started feeling safe and secure. Just for a couple of months life was looking beautiful and then came Covid- 19. I lost my job and again responsibility fell on my husband.

One day due to difficulties I had to sell my used item in free classified. In a day I could sell and get the money. Then the idea of selling came to my mind. But sell what? This was a big question.. When my mind started searching for saleable items. I realized anything unique is easy to sell. One lead to another. Later I found a lady tailor who was also struggling to keep up with her expenses and employees. I researched on the internet and zeroed on a design which came out very nice. As there is awareness regarding eco friendly products this bag is the right item. I felt very nice after the sample bag was made and ended up doing this. Though income is not very high but a ray of hope and kind of satisfaction is driving me forward.”

The way she has grabbed the opportunity is worth learning and appreciating.
