Bengaluru, Mar 19: Forging your own path forward in life is a feat that so few of us are ever able to do, and yet it is often the only available path to living your dream. Nancy Gupta’s story is one of breaking through multiple glass ceilings and the façade of meager societal expectations to act upon all that she deemed desirable. Born in a small-town family in Jharkhand, she worked her way up to working in an IT firm in Bengaluru. But she found her dreams to be too big to fit in a cubicle, and therefore she quit.

It is hard to follow your dreams, especially when they do not fit into your life’s trajectory. But Nancy clearly had what it takes to start over and do what she felt would make her happy. She took her new pursuits seriously and made it a point to be humble towards all potential opportunities to learn. She also refused to take any monetary assistance from her family and chose to monetize over her grit and resolve instead.

If you talk to Nancy today, she would readily admit that she decided to leave something that felt comfortable to do what felt necessary, which made her who she is today. She has explored multiple avenues in her life and succeeded in all of them – right now; she is a successful entrepreneur, and a fashion blogger. And yet she is refreshingly humble; what’s more, she actually considers it to be the sole reason why she was able to pursue her desires successfully.

Her achievements and enchanting personality have garnered quite a bit of attention; she was recently declared the Woman Achiever of the Year. She has truly built a career for herself from scratch and is a true inspiration for women all around India and the World, who want to break out of their shells with a big dream and a fresh resolve in their hearts.
