In life, the greatest transformations often begin with a leap of faith. For Dr. Manasi Sagdeo Mohril, a homeopathic doctor, leaving the familiarity of her homeland to pursue her dreams in the Netherlands was one such transformative step. Armed with determination and an unyielding passion for her profession, she ventured into uncharted territory, facing cultural shifts, language barriers, and professional challenges. Her story is not just one of adaptation but also of growth, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of excellence in the face of adversity.
A Leap into the Unknown
Moving to the Netherlands was an adventure for Dr. Manasi. Coming from a familiar environment, she had never ventured beyond her comfort zone. Yet, her curiosity about European Homeopathy and the prospect of practising classical homeopathy in a foreign land motivated her to take that bold step.
However, the journey was far from smooth. “It was not at all a cakewalk,” she says. Adapting to a new culture, learning a different language, navigating unfamiliar professional rules, and balancing personal and professional life required resilience and determination.
Overcoming Challenges, One Step at a Time
Without much external support, Dr. Manasi had to carve her path from scratch. She learned to work with authorities, often asking what she describes as “silly questions” to clear her doubts and clear her path forward.
“If we need to progress by dodging all obstructions, we should take any possible help available,” she advises. Her approach was marked by patience, persistence, and an unwavering focus on finding solutions.
After a rigorous registration process, she achieved her goal and started her own practice in 2016.
Building a Community and Facing a Global Crisis
Recognition in a new community did not come overnight. It took two years of relentless effort to establish herself as a trusted homeopathic practitioner. By 2019, just as her practice was flourishing, the COVID-19 pandemic struck.
During this global crisis, Dr. Manasi continued her work, providing much-needed support to her patients and friends. This period not only tested her resilience but also boosted her confidence. “That gave me confidence. After that, I never looked back,” she says with pride.
Lessons from the Journey
Dr. Manasi’s journey has been a testament to perseverance and belief in one’s dreams. Her key takeaway? Keep going.
“Step by step, mile by mile, you will reach your desired destination,” she emphasizes. To anyone starting a new journey, her advice is simple yet profound: Just keep working, keep chasing your dream. Even if you think you cannot do it, take a breath and start afresh.
