ABOUT THE FOUNDER
A girl hailing from a small town in Madhya Pradesh called Satna, raised watching her entrepreneur mother working hard to live a dream. Nidhi went to a boarding school at the age of 7, learnt how to speak in English in grade 6 and completed her MBA to work with McKinsey & Co. Her genes guided her to take the entrepreneurial path and today after two decades of running businesses globally in the USA, Singapore & India, she's grateful to have created a socially conscious entrepreneurial empire that empowers millions.
In her life, she has followed her passion and pursued a multitude of seemingly unconnected things like dance instruction & fitness, entrepreneurship, ETailing Business, spirituality, writing, anchoring and nurturing small businesses and creating new entrepreneurs. There seemed to be one common thread across all her ventures and work - that was her love for creating a business from the ground up. She loved the thrill of building an idea into a running business and building it into a value that can be sold and move on to the next idea!
Her unusual combination of interests, expertise and skills is a strength, has helped her build two businesses with very low investments ($100 & $700 respectively) and sell them
From working at a consulting firm McKinsey to choreographing Bollywood dance fitness routines and conducting team building dance workshops across the world to publishing books to founding an E-Tailing baby brand and now an EdTech venture training, educating and coaching entrepreneurs, speaking to and motivating young girls and at-home women to embark on the entrepreneurial journey.. She is an undeniable proof that all you need is a passion aligned with your purpose and then you become unstoppable.
"People often ask me "How on earth did you get started in all this?" and “How do you do so much?”
Here’s what I say. I am the driver of my life. I have the power to be, do and have anything I want, as do you. I invest all of my energies into my passion and nurture it. In giving I receive. I am born to empower others! This philosophy, a huge amount of hard-work and blessings have led me to some wonderful milestones.
