This deeply moving caption was shared by one of our INUKA Members, Natasha Jere, and we knew immediately it deserved to be seen by more people.

Reaching out to Natasha, she further shared more of her story with us, and her words continued to inspire:
"๐๐ฐ๐ด๐ต ๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ญ๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ข๐บ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ช๐ณ ๐ฅ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฎ๐ด ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ค๐ข๐ถ๐ด๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐บ ๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ด๐ค๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ซ๐ถ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ญ๐ข๐ถ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ต. ๐๐ถ๐ต ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ด๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ฃ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ข๐ง๐ณ๐ข๐ช๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ๐ต๐บ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ณ๐ต๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ด๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ."
Natasha is the eldest daughter in a hardworking family, balancing a full-time job in the electrical field with her growing INUKA business. She started with one goal: to supplement her income and slowly built her way to Ruby status over two years. Her journey is a reminder that you donโt need everything figured out to begin. As she puts it:
"๐๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐ด๐ต๐ข๐ณ๐ต - ๐ด๐ค๐ข๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฅ, ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ด๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ, ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐ด๐ฎ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ ๐ค๐ข๐ฑ๐ช๐ต๐ข๐ญ, ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ฏ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ต ๐ค๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด. ๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ญ๐บ ๐ง๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ค๐ฆ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐จ๐ช๐ฏ."
Her story echoes what INUKA stands for: ๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ต๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ, ๐ผ๐ณ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ผ๐ฝ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐น๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฟ ๐ณ๐๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ - ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฝ, ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ฒ, ๐ผ๐ป๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ฒ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฎ ๐๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ.
