If given the opportunity to start a business today, I would establish a clothing line specializing in the manufacturing and customization of T-shirts and caps, with a focus on accessories. This venture would not only be a business but also a platform for empowering women, ideally operating as a women-only organization. Through this initiative, I aim to provide opportunities for women to showcase their talents and establish themselves in the fashion industry, breaking barriers and setting new standards.
