Summarize Hi All,
good morning...
First i'll introduce myself. I'm Reshma working in Quest Global for the past 11 years. I'm basically from Thrissur and currently settled in Trivandrum.
This is the first time, I'm facing this much of audience i'm little bit nervours too.
For inviting me to this function, my collegue Abin tole that Reshma no need to botherize about the function, just share your story. That may b motivate to otherw. That's the only reason that I stand up infornt of you today. Becase I was searching for a public plaftform to share my experience.
So I will share my a life experience to you. I believe that it will help you to understand how both company and family can support the growth of a career of woman.
Quest Global is my first company and I'm joined here as part of campus placement on 2013. In the initial years itself i understood Quest Global is the best place to work for me. Because the work environment was very nice and equally all colleques was very supporing persons too. I didn't feel any type of ego between coworkers.
My marriage was on Decemebr 27, 2015 and it was an love comes arranged marriage. He was abroad. Long disctance relationships are sometimes are very sad and boring. 
Withing every 6 months either he will come or I will go there for a short term visit. After 3 years of marriage I was eagerly waiting to become pregnant. I was suffering with PCOD for the past few years and my periods was irregular. So it's a little bit difficult to get pregnanant. I've undergone the PCOD treatment under homeopathy and after the 8 months of treatment  we self stopped it.The incessant questions from both relatives and a few friends were really unbearable.
The couples undergoing this situation can understand this.
At that time, I prayed to God that if I became pregnant, that would be truly extraordinary and rare.
Sometimes, it feels as if God answers our prayers precisely in the same way we hope.
Now I think twice before wishing for anything. :)
I was hospitalized due to abdominal pain, and Beta HCG results show a positive pregnancy.
My family and I were very happy to see this. I informed my colleagues too. But that happiness changed after undergoing the first scan. As per my wish, the scanned images were very rare. God shows me the heartbeat of three babies in my womb. We were overwhelmed with a mix of emotions. Excitement, joy, worry, and fear all filled our hearts.I was underweight at that time, but the doctor didn't agree to a reduction in babies. Because all three babies were healthy.
One condition she told me about was that full bed rest is required during the entire pregnancy period.
It was really shocking to me. The WFH option was not allowed at that time, and I can't sit for work.
I thought that it was the end of my career. But i'm not ready to discontinue my career for any reasons. Beacuse in the high school classes itself my abition is to become a IT professional. I understood that this was a significant and transformative chapter in my life, and I prepared to embrace the challenges and changes that came with it.
I informed my leads and managers of this news. Their response was really commendable.They informed me that there was no need to worry and that I could take the WFH option until completing the pregnancy period.
I was incredibly relieved by their response. I replied that my productivity may be lower during these days, and I will try my best to give the maximum outcome. The team held me tightly with them and reassigned the easier tasks to me. They didn't release me from the project and considered me a valuable member of the team. As Quest empowers the cultural pillar "Care for People,", they have actually demonstrated the same in my life. I took the WFH option for 7 months. During this period, my colleagues and family gave me all the mental support I needed. We knew that this journey would not be an easy one, and we were grateful for any help we would get along the way.At last, after 7 months of struggle, I've undergone an emergency CS session.
I gave birth to three cuties: Bhagat, Ishani, and Janvi.Due to preterm labor, all babies are in the NICU for one month. My colleagues constantly contacted me to know both the health condition of babies and to provide financial support.
 WFH during COVID-19 was really helpful to me. I witnessed every stage of my babies' lives.
After rejoining, a lot of changes happened in both Quest and my project. It was really hard to retain my previous position at Quest after understanding all the changes that happened in the last two years. I am proud to say that I have worked diligently and achieved promotion to the next level with the valuable support of my team.
I am using this platform to express my outmost gratitude towards Quest Global, which has been my constant support throughout this incredible journey.
My message to all working women is that with determination, effective time management, a supportive family, and a supportive organization like Quest Global, you can excel both in your professional and personal. .
