Seizing the Opportunity
I am excited by the trend of fashion as a form of self-expression that celebrates individuality. People are moving away from fleeting trends and embracing their unique styles, and this cultural shift is something I’m incredibly passionate about. As a personal stylist and founder, I plan to to help my clients embrace their authentic selves through the clothing they wear.
Also, the fashion industry is making strides towards true inclusivity—not just in terms of size and shape but also in age, culture, and personal identity. This is a transformative moment, and it excites us because it allows us to work with a broader, more diverse audience.
We are eager to continue leading by example, ensuring that our brand, Inara, remains inclusive and empowering, while offering fashion that celebrates all women and their unique beauty.
Evolving as a Founder
As a founder and leader, what excites me most is the chance to inspire others—whether it’s through my journey as an entrepreneur, my book, or through the team I am building. I’m looking forward to sharing my story with larger audiences, sharing my experiences to show women that it's possible to turn their passion into a thriving business.
Most importantly, I am excited to connect with 50 more entrepreneurs in 2025, gaining insights from their journey and embracing opportunities to learn and unlearn valuable business lessons.
For me leadership is about service—ie. helping others unlock their full potential, guiding them through challenges, and celebrating their success. Thus, I want to make sure every voice is heard and valued in the coming years.
The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
