I used to tell my family that I want to leave my education and I want to help people. I want to be like Mother Teresa. It was so unrealistic that no one believed me,” she said.Tanya shared that she left her education at 19 and moved back home to Gwalior where she was mocked by her relatives, and was asked to get married. She wasn’t allowed to get a job as she did not have any education. Tanya had Rs 500 in her pocket so she decided to start a business with that. She bought some art supplies, and started a new Instagram account where she posted pictures of handmade greeting cards. She got her first order within a week but never got paid for it.
