Damini Mahajan, co-founder and CEO of WeMakeScholars

On this Women's day, I want to tell all the women entrepreneurs and the homemakers, who are an entrepreneur at heart, Life is not easy for us at any stage; when we are struggling to break the glass ceiling society has put on us OR when we are juggling to manage home, family and our dreams, but despite of this, we have the strength of Devi Kaali in us, so, we can definitely move forward whatsoever. We need to learn not to lose our goals and ambitions while fulfilling our responsibilities as a daughter, daughter-in-law, wife or as a mother. 


To all the young girls, I want to share that I started my company when I was 23. Coming from an orthodox family, 23 is the age to get married. No one wanted me to pursue an ambitious career, instead, get married and start a family. It takes a lot of courage in you to stand against all while having full faith in your dreams. But believe me if that day you take your stand, you are doing it not just for yourself, but for 100 other girls from your village or town. So, do it. And we women have everything in us, whatever it takes to succeed in life and be independent.
