"God has given more power to women, just don't give up"

Simmi Wadhwa is one of those women who take the challenges head-on and change the course of life. She is a migrant, a mother of two, a house-maker and above all a woman businessman in a male-dominated industry.

Nothing could stop her from achieving her dream.

“God has given more power to women. All we have to do is never give up,” says Simmi who runs her own real estate business.
Simmi Wadhwa started her own business after being rejected by a real estate firm.

“I was interviewed twice. I was told the job was very demanding. I was ready to give my best, but they rejected me because I am a mother of two children. That day, I told myself that I have to prove myself,” shares Simmi.

She started her firm two years back with the support of her husband.

“I received tremendous support from my husband. He gave up his career and took over house-making. He takes care of the kids and home now,” Simmi says proudly.
