Aishwarya is a successful businesswoman today. And her baby's skin allergy was the actual source of inspiration for Aishwarya to start her own business!

When Aishwarya's baby daughter started getting rashes, she went to the doctor. It turned out that her baby was allergic to the baby products commonly sold in the market.

A specific chemical in those products was causing such angry rashes on her skin. The doctor advised her not to use any product on her skin for a few weeks and give her sponge baths instead.

Converting a problem into an opportunity …

Aishwarya was very worried about her baby. She knew she could not keep her baby clean without using any soap or shampoo on her for weeks to come.

She decided to take this challenge up and find a better solution for the baby.

So, she contacted her mother and grandmother to know about the age-old practices that can alternative the chemical products. They have been following these practices for generations in their family.

With her mother's and grandmother's guidance, she started making powders with the available kitchen ingredients like - cold-pressed oils, egg whites, besan flour, etc.

She first tried the products on her skin. When she was sure there would be no side effects, she used them on her baby. There were no rashes or allergies, and Aishwarya was happy. The products also made the skin feel soft and smooth.

Aishwarya did not stop here. She wanted to make the same chemical-free organic products for adults too.

She started reading research papers and blogs to gain more knowledge in what she was doing and eventually took a course on making skincare products.

This changed everything completely.

She started making shampoos, conditioners, moisturizers at home and distributed them amongst friends and family for their feedback. The reviews always came out to be good. This motivated her to make more products like these.

Expanding horizons and finding new opportunities

With the help of her friend, Haarini Sukumaran, she started her Facebook page and used it to advertise the products.

At first, they just used to sell bar soaps and liquid soap. Aishwarya used to look after making and packaging the products. Haarini handled marketing and advertising.

They started getting good responses from the customers and began getting massive orders. So, they hired four women who helped them in their manufacturing process.

The duo now sells 65 different products. This includes- lip balms, body butter, shampoos, shampoo bars, oils, etc. Some products are specially formulated for children; other products are safe for all age groups. From being a homemaker, this mom now makes a business of Rs 5 lakh a month!

Like Aishwarya, many women plan to start their own business or even expand the current one.

For that, gaining proper knowledge about business communication and interacting with the target audience is very important.

Inspiring Story Of 2 Women Cops Who Stopped A Bank Robbery In Bihar

In a country dominated by men, women are rapidly making their presence felt. They are unarguably just as essential to the nation as men when it comes to contributing to the nation's progress. Women are now playing notable roles in developing our culture and economy. They are now considered to be the forces that develop the country.

Once confined to household chores, women today can make a perfect balance between their household and professional lives. No wonder, then, they adorned high offices and respectable posts. Women are becoming aware of their strengths and capabilities. They are exploring different opportunities and are getting into professions that were once male-dominated. In fact, there is no field which has remained unconquered by women.

Let's take the police department, for instance. Women cops were unheard of. They were restricted to the desk and clerical jobs in law enforcement. They worked in juvenile facilities and used to handle crimes involving female offenders. Women were considered less capable and brave than men in the police department. But times are changing. Women are accepting new challenges and roles. They are proving themselves in terms of both physical strength and valour.

In a recent incident, two **female police **constables displayed exemplary courage and bravery to stop a bank robbery. The two female police personnel, Juhi Kumari and Shanti Kumari, were guarding the Uttar Bihar Gramin Bank in Senduari Chowk of Sadar police station area when three men tried to enter with the intention to rob the bank.

Juhi and Shanti Kumari inquired about their identity and asked them for their documents. One among them immediately drew a pistol at them. Juhi and Shanti did not hesitate for a moment. They immediately got on their feet and fought them bravely.

The robbers tried to snatch their rifles, but these two brave police women had decided no matter what, they would not let them rob the bank. The robbers were alarmed by their determination. This led to a confrontation, and in the course of action, Juhi was injured. Eventually, the robbers gave up and fled the crime scene. The entire incident was captured on the bank's CCTV camera.

The video footage went viral and got everyone talking about Juhi and Shanti's inspiring story of bravery. People across the country applauded and praised them for their courage.

To become a brave and fearless policewoman, you must always be prepared. You must educate yourself and undergo rigorous training. While women still account for a very small percentage of the workforce, some believe that women make better police officers as women are specially gifted. They are compassionate and encourage teamwork. Women are better at communication when compared to men. Women are calm and can often help stop violence before they erupt.

If Juhi and Shanti's story has inspired you and you wish to become a female cop , Glow & Lovely Careers (formerly known as Fair & Lovely Career Foundation) can offer you Online test, Courses and expert guidance.
