Today I am delighted and deeply honored to share that I have been selected for the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Women program, a world-class initiative designed to empower and accelerate women entrepreneurs, in association with the IIM Ahmedabad - OFFICIAL - Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA)
After spending more than a decade in the world of financial planning and investments, helping individuals work towards financial independence and spreading financial literacy through my practice and various business media platforms, this feels like the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
Extremely Excited & a Bit Nervous to be back to college life amidst the entrepreneurial role. The thought of going back to the classroom is both humbling and exhilarating. I look forward to learning, unlearning, challenging my perspectives, and growing alongside an inspiring cohort of women entrepreneurs from across the country.
As someone who strongly believes that growth begins when we step outside our comfort zones, I am excited to embrace this journey with curiosity, purpose, and an open mind & how the faculty here terms is “I am here to become KASH- rich”
( Knowledge, Attitudes ,Skills , Habits )
Grateful for this opportunity and even more grateful for the mentors, colleagues, clients, friends, and family whose support has been instrumental in my journey.
Here’s to continuous learning, meaningful connections, and building a larger impact together !!
