“If the woman can determine, she can do wonders!” is the central theme of this true story. It is a fantastic tale of beautiful friends working for a cause – Arogya healthcare – best friends unite for a cause. They succeeded in making a change in the lives of the people.
What? How? Why? When? Is it possible?
These were the questions that came up when the idea of doing a joint venture aroused in the minds of two friends, departed by distance and joined by souls. What we had in common was passion. And an innate ability to restore the sick to Health or cure, like a doctor’s duty. It was more than our duty. It was our conscious calling and saying, step out of your comfort zones. And do what you are meant to do. Such was the beauty of the thought that we were compelled to think that until and unless we don’t attempt it, we would never know what is waiting for us.
It all started with a beautiful day when we were cherishing our good times over the phone. Seventeen long years of friendship and through all the thick and thin, we must say many things changed for good. We were married happily settled in two different cities, which practically had no direct connectivity. We had embraced and enjoyed the beauty of motherhood, but each of us had that “Inner me, “which was demanding justice. There was a moment when both of us were on the same page of doing something which will complete our existence as a person. We were a daughter, a wife, a mother, but the doctor in us was dying to work more than it already was.
The moment of Arogya healthcare
People often say that there is one moment when we feel something, and for a change, rather than forgetting the feeling, we start working on it. It was “our moment” when we feel the urge to give back what society has given us. We felt the urge to reach the masses and help them in one aspect, which is essential to each of us, that is, Health.
An idea had taken roots, but it needed nurturing. It needed support from our better halves, both mental as well as monetary. When we gave the proposal, we got a thumbs up with lots of excitement and anxieties. Usually, stories have hardships; a thumbs-up was a great start, but then, what next?
The idea of taking Homoeopathy online came to our minds. Hours and hours of research and discussions brought us to a conclusion that, yes, it is a workable model.
Brainstorming regarding our subject got us into many ideas, but again these were just ideas. To make them and shape them, we started our groundwork. Taking estimates for the website and coordinated with designers and coders, but none of us knew that designing and coding were two different jobs. The process itself was learning from day one, but, today we are proud owners of Arogyada Online Homoeopathy Clinic, an online website for homeopathic help to the sufferers.
From being a mom to businesswoman, talking to people about software and designs, the entire outlook of our persona has changed. We worked very hard to find innovative things and that can help patients at large. It was never a comfortable journey, but as they say,
“The heights to which great people reach and stay were not attained by a sudden flight.”
But they when their companions slept were toiling upward in the night.”
We had several sleepless nights and a lot of hard work to start with. To maintain it, we are still on our toes doing seminars, educating women about the importance of good health, and giving their health time. Children hold a special place in our hearts. Hence, we conduct various camps in preschool. We help parents by solving their doubts on nutrition and food issues on how to manage hyperactivity. And share other parenting tips.
Last but not least, Everybody’s love and respect make us feel very humble. Having a satisfying heart at night is what matters the most. There is contentment in our work, and blessings enable us to accomplish our tasks.
A little mention about our goals here, we would be propagating our “Need to talk the initiative,” wherein we feel that people around us are always stuck mentally on various issues in their personal and professional lives. So we thought that we would try our best to help them by our need to talk initiative wherein they can confide and open up with us, and we, in turn, will help them in their issues by giving practical solutions.
We will send it with a small saying that we believe in Working for a Cause and Not for Applause, and it has always given us inner peace and happiness.
