RISHIKA AGARWAL: THE EMBODIMENT OF PATIENCE AND PERSISTENCE

Inspired by her father, a successful businessman, and supported by her mother, Rishika knew her path. Starting a business is never a walk in the park. For Rishika, the biggest challenge was finding the motivation to keep going despite the odds. "The solution? Patience!" she emphasizes. It's not just a one-time hurdle; it’s a daily battle. During tough times, she gives herself the space to gather her emotions, focusing on the positives. "Mental strength is the key," she adds, showcasing her profound understanding of the entrepreneurial spirit.

Rishika’s journey began just a year ago, but it has been a thrilling rollercoaster. Watching her father navigate the business world and receiving endless support from her mother, she was inspired to dream big and chase her own aspirations. Her path has been filled with challenges, almost like puzzles she loves to solve, adding excitement to her everyday life.

Entrepreneurship has taught Rishika invaluable lessons. Patience, persistence, and resilience are at the core of her values. She believes that entrepreneurship is the toughest yet best MBA course, teaching skills from branding to finance. Her academic background, graduating from Asia’s number one university, NUS, has further enriched her journey.

She graduated from the prestigious National University of Singapore (NUS), launched her business at the young age of 23, is witnessing her business grow with a promising future, and is planning for business expansion.

Rishika’s vision for her business is to make it an emotion for people—a blend of security and joy. She envisions her brand becoming synonymous with the diamond-like feeling every woman treasures. The minimalist real jewelry market, though still burgeoning, is gaining traction as women lean towards lightweight, durable pieces for daily wear. Moreover, the demand for high-quality, budget-friendly gifts is on the rise, and her products fit this niche perfectly.

“Dream big for yourself, but have the courage to pursue it,” Rishika advises. “Dreams come with a cost but can be truly rewarding. Never let anyone else tell you what you are capable of; take constructive criticism to improve, but always trust your gut!”
