I Didn't Planned this career journey ..Life made me do it

I was working as an L2 Windows Administrator at Wipro when health issues forced me to leave my job. After few months, I got pregnant. During that time one question was running in my head i couldn't enjoy my pregnancy "Why should I Stop my career just because of my health" I didn't have a proper plan.

I just knew I didn't want to sit at home and completely disconnect from my career.

So I decided to do something.

I bought a laptop on EMI.Β 

At that time I was interested in web development and AI was emerging technology so I thought to integrate AI in website. I approached many people but rejected. Finally got one project from commercial shop to design website for their Shop. But there was a catch they wanted me to visit shop everyday . I agreed After few days , I had to undergone cervical surgery and was advised complete bed rest until delivery I couldn't continue But I had my laptop I completed the website from my bed.

I Got paid 20k

My family were worried and asked me to stop working. But I kept learning and even participated in Google Gemini Developer competition.

Then After baby , LIFE THROWN ME - Sleepless nights , responsibilities and a baby who need me.

Still I didn't step back I Started helping people with career guidance , mock interviews and career transitions.

Looking back, I realise something:

Consistency doesn't always mean doing something every day.

Sometimes, it simply means not giving up when life gets difficult.

I didn't have a perfect plan.

I just kept taking the next step.

And that's how my career continued β€” one small step at a time.
