If you are looking for an empowering and uplifting story, then I Made Lemonade: A Memoir is the book for you. It is a deeply personal, but relatable account of one woman's journey to overcome obstacles and achieve success. I, Ela Pandya, the author, based in Porterville, bring my own story to these pages.


I was born in India and moved to America when my parents arranged my marriage to a doctor. I was highly educated and had dreams of making a career in her new country, but I faced challenges due to cultural expectations and the expectations of my husband's family.


I found a way to remain positive and productive each time life threw a curveball, including the challenge of adapting to life as a surgeon's wife. I have been a member of the global organization Zonta International and I served on international committees.


But it's not just my professional achievements that make me stand out—I raised two amazing kids, who are highly accomplished yet humble, kind, and decent human beings. The memoir describes my journey in India, the challenges I faced throughout my life and how I rose above them, and the love I have for my children.
