Creativity isn’t always an in-born trait but a refined skill in the creation process.

The book revolves around the myths about creativity and its stereotype.

We need to come out of the cocoon to explore and experiment.” She adds that her book was not born as an impulsive, spur-of-the-moment story but is her own journey to discover the creative side. She takes pride in being recognized as the Exceptional Women of Excellence by the Women’s Economic Forum.
