Is busyness really success, or just disconnection in disguise?

If you’ve ever glamorized the all-nighter only to feel empty the next day, this conversation offers a saner script: purpose, presence, and small rituals that shift your nervous system in minutes.

This conversation will show you that burnout isn’t just about hours worked. It’s about misalignment. And by choosing connection, you can change everything.

What You’ll Learn:

03:59 Why busyness got glamorized (and why that’s shifting)

07:42 The “low moment” that pushed Aisha to rethink her purpose 

13:21 The caffeine wake-up call that sparked lifestyle changes

17:32 A two-minute breathing ritual to reset and refocus

23:34 Navigating stereotypes as a South Asian woman founder 

Today, Ginni welcomes Aisha Chottani, founder of Moment, a flavored water brand that brings mindfulness-inspired botanicals and adaptogens into everyday hydration. Shifting from the consulting grind to a deeply intentional business, Aisha shares how purpose (not just hustle) fuels sustainable drive and how three conscious breaths before a meeting can change your day.

You’ll hear how a caffeine overload and a bout of misalignment led Aisha to build supportive rituals, revisit her South Asian wellness roots, and formulate a “functional stack”. She opens up about being underestimated in male-dominated spaces, why New York forced her to slow down to thrive, and how Moment is expanding into natural retail chains, airports, and cruise ships, making calm an everyday option.
