When destiny tested her with darkness, Manisha Memane chose light. In September 2023, while thriving in her corporate career, she was suddenly pushed into a medical crisis that threatened her eyesight forever. Emergency surgery saved her right eye, but doctors declared she would never return to work. For a woman at the peak of her career, the verdict was devastating. Confined face down for 15 days post-surgery, she endured pain, immobility, and a future that looked hopeless. But instead of surrender, she picked a fight. With blurred vision, she enrolled in an NLP Practitioner course and battled through every lesson, refusing to be defined by predictions.
Two months later came the unthinkable. She woke up in complete darkness, stripped of sight in both eyes, unable to even see her daughter standing before her. There was no cure, no clarity, no roadmap. Yet, instead of collapsing, she leaned on faith. Shielding her parents from the truth, she carried the weight silently with her husband and daughters by her side. With science offering no answers, she turned inward. Prayer, meditation, and surrender became her anchors. And then, the miracle unfolded. Against all odds, her vision returned—fully and unexpectedly. What medicine could not explain, grace delivered. For Manisha, it was no longer a tragedy. It was a divine assignment.
That realization reshaped her purpose. Returning to her high-impact role at Eaton’s Engineering Services EMEA in Pune, she emerged not just restored but transformed—leading with sharper focus, deeper empathy, and a resilience forged in fire. Beyond boardrooms, she poured her strength into co-founding Shivdrushti Pratishthan, a nonprofit dedicated to restoring dignity and hope for orphaned children and abandoned elders. Her pain became fuel for purpose, her setbacks turned into stepping stones for hundreds of lives waiting for a chance.
Through Shivdrushti Pratishthan, Manisha and her team are building a safety net where none existed. They organize medical camps across Pune to prevent untreated health issues, offering deworming, dental checkups, vaccinations, eye care, and free medicines. They sponsor education, guiding students through career choices and memory techniques, while connecting them with professionals who expand their horizons. Collection drives for food, clothes, and medicines ensure basic needs are met, while birthdays, anniversaries, and community programs inject joy into lives often forgotten. For Manisha, every initiative is more than charity—it is about proving to the vulnerable that someone still cares.
Her story doesn’t end with survival. It evolves into inspiration. She chronicled her journey in Blind Until Blessed, a book that is now echoing as a battle cry for those fighting silent battles. The overwhelming response birthed The Divine Edit, a spiritual framework she now shares to guide others through chaos with courage. What makes her narrative extraordinary is not just her miraculous healing, but how she turned personal suffering into collective strength. For the hundreds of children and elderly supported by Shivdrushti Pratishthan, she is living proof that darkness can indeed birth light.
In a world where motivation often feels hollow, Manisha’s rise is nothing short of a revolution. The woman once told she would never work again is now not only leading in the corporate arena but also rewriting lives through her foundation. Her journey is stirring the nation because it is more than survival—it is rebirth. It is a reminder that even in the harshest void, faith can redraw destiny. Registered as Shivdrushti Pratishthan (Regn. No. 668/2022/PUNE, MH/2024/0432460) in Pune, the foundation continues to expand its mission of love and support for orphanages and old age homes, quietly proving that one woman’s fight against darkness can illuminate thousands of lives.
