We are often asked by our dear ones to build a career around what we “love” doing. What is not talked about is how to find what we love, and this process requires a LOT of reflection.
Abhilasha Sinha is one of the few individuals who have done the hard work to ultimately find what she loves and been transparent about it! In this episode of Women who Build, Abhilasha talks about how she was fortunate to have been admitted to Harvard Business School’s 2+2 program, as that equipped her with the risk appetite to embark on a journey of career exploration. She started her career in education at Avanti, went on to consult with large companies on disruption at Innosight (a firm started by Prof. Clayton Christensen), streamlined operations at a biotech company, Elucidata, joined the digital revolution in India as the Chief of Staff at Hike, and is now “un-junking” food at Open Secret. In the process, Abhilasha has reflected deeply on the impact that she wants to have in the world, which makes her every day very deliberate.

There was so much to learn from Abhilasha's journey - this is by far the longest episode we have done!
