In today’s fast-paced world, many women find themselves juggling multiple roles, often sacrificing their dreams and passions for family responsibilities. Daisy, a professional software engineer with a successful fifteen-year career, experienced this firsthand. After taking a break from her high-profile job following the birth of her daughter, she realized the plight of many women like her. This realization became the seed for her entrepreneurial journey, leading to the creation of the PowerInHer – HomeBakers Community on Instagram.
The Genesis of PowerInHer
Daisy’s journey from a corporate professional to a woman entrepreneur is both inspiring and motivational. Known for her dedication and passion, Daisy’s break from the corporate world provided her with a unique perspective on the challenges women face. She noticed that many women, after having children, often found their dreams and passions taking a back seat. This observation haunted her, prompting her to seek out women who, despite all odds, had paved their way in various fields.
Driven by a desire to inspire and empower women, Daisy took up blogging and digital marketing, fueled by her passion for writing. She also created the Facebook group ‘Creative Wonder Women’, a space for like-minded creative ladies to showcase their talents. The group became a hub for women to share their creativity, whether it be in the kitchen, spending quality time with their kids, decorating their homes, planning birthdays, designing, or engaging in any artistic work. This platform allowed members to draw inspiration from each other, fostering a supportive and encouraging environment.
Birth of a Community During a Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 was a turning point for Daisy. During this challenging time, she decided to become a author for book on home bakers, driven by her special affinity and respect for them. To Daisy, home bakers embody the essence of making love edible through their passion and dedication. Her book carried a powerful message: believe in your passion. Women are creators and should never give up on their dreams. The book’s success was immediate, becoming an Amazon Best Seller on its first day, inspiring countless women to pursue their baking dreams.
The overwhelming response to her book encouraged Daisy to establish the PowerInHer – HomeBakers Community. This Instagram community was designed to create opportunities for collaboration and learning, empowering home bakers across India. By featuring bakers, conducting live sessions, and fostering a network of support, PowerInHer quickly became a beacon of inspiration for many.

Facilitating Learning and Growth
Since the inception of PowerInHer, Daisy has been in communication with India’s top home bakers from different parts of the country. These bakers conduct workshops both offline and online, providing valuable learning opportunities for community members. When She started authoring the book, She found that most workshops happen in Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad. North India has few such opportunities, so it is not possible for everyone to travel so far for classes. Daisy’s goal is to bring these experts to Chandigarh or nearby cities to conduct offline sessions, making it more accessible for bakers who wish to elevate their craft but cannot travel to major cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, or Hyderabad.
The community also serves as a platform for bakers to learn from each other. When a baker is featured, other members become aware of their work and It is a human tendency that when we hear the struggles and successes of others, we get inspired to do something. So, these Live sessions aim to inspire other upcoming women entrepreneurs. The package includes featuring baker’s designer cakes and an ebook copy of the book(The Art of Baking).
Fostering Collaborations
One of the unique aspects of the PowerInHer community is the encouragement of collaborations among its members. Home baking businesses often face the limitation that cakes cannot travel long distances. However, by having bakers from different cities as part of the community, they can refer clients to each other, ensuring that customer needs are met even if the original baker is not available.
Collaboration within the same city is also promoted. For instance, bakers can divide bulk orders or refer each other when they are unable to fulfill an order themselves. This network of support not only helps in managing workload but also strengthens the sense of community among members.
Advice for Aspiring Solopreneurs
Daisy’s advice for aspiring solopreneurs is simple yet profound: do not wait for the right moment to start. She emphasizes that starting now is crucial, as it is through action that one learns to navigate challenges, deal with customers, and grow a business. Drawing an analogy to swimming, she notes that no one learns to swim by sitting on the banks of a pool; one must dive in to truly learn. Consistency and perseverance, according to Daisy, are key to success.
A Community of Inspiration and Support
The PowerInHer – HomeBakers Community, founded by Daisy Madaan , stands as a testament to the power of passion and dedication. Through her initiative, Daisy has created a platform that not only recognizes and celebrates the talents of home bakers but also provides them with opportunities to learn, collaborate, and grow. Her journey from a corporate professional to a community leader is a source of inspiration for many women, encouraging them to embrace their worth, pursue their dreams, and never give up.
