Tulsi Mehta – The girl with dreams in her eyes and conviction in her stride wanting to break stereotypes
From Ahmedabad to Mumbai
My journey as a girl with dreams in her eyes and conviction to break stereotypes
Growing up in Ahmedabad I always aspired for the crown and to create a positive impact on people.Became Miss Gujarat in 2004 and aspired for Miss India but destiny had other plans and I studied Clinical Psychology.Having worked in a government hospital for 3 years I always felt something was missing,I wanted more
Got married in 2015 and moved to the city of dreams Mumbai.Becoming Runner’s Up in Mrs India at 39,I knew there was no looking back.But then COVID happened and social media became a rage.I saw my opportunity and started with GRWM videos which became very popular.Soon Brands came calling and I have worked with numerous brands in my journey of 3 years from Fiona Diamonds,Jewellery world,Neutrogena,streax,designer Ritu Goel ,Pernia’s Pop Up shop,Myntra,cukoo,Lavanya,Starblue Jewels,Brillare to name a few .Brands and my followers resonate with my style,confidence,work ethic and my authentic self that I bring to the brands I work with.I believe hard work,determination,conviction,consistency is the key to success
Got an amazing opportunity to walk for Bombay Times Fashion Week .Literally it was a manifestation that came true.Sashaying down the ramp in a golden gown with a thigh high slit was literally a page out of a fairytale.And this opened many doors for me in the fashion and influencer industry.Being an influencer has literally changed my outlook on life because now I have a voice,I can express and can impact others to lead a liberated,unapologetic life,undeterred following their passions
Motherhood was a very different experience.My daughter has made me more empathetic as a woman.Its been hard juggling both and at times the mom guilt takes over .But I believe a happy woman is a happy family.I don’t believe a woman should lose her identity or individuality,not pursue her passions once she gets married or becomes a mother.She can do both quite effectively.And thanks to the support of my husband and my home system I am able to strive harder.It is one of the most fulfilling and challenging things I have ever done .I have now built a community of people who inspire me each day to achieve my goals and become a better version of me .Our mind is the only limit we have,we can be anything we want to be.Looking forward to more exciting projects in the future.
