Fatema Hussain and her team of co-founders started what every kid in this country wanted as a child before they enrolled into their professional undergraduate course - a way to figure out what do we really like to do. They achieved this for more than 1 lakh students through an online portal where they can find mentors on everything from writing, filmmaking to stand-up comedy. These may be seen as off-beat careers for most Indian Households but are nevertheless out there and the only thing stopping kids from venturing into them is the lack of awareness and guidance. Forbes gave them a special mention for 30 under 30 too. Their passion and dedication to set things right, fill the missing gaps and help youngsters decide what they want to do is inspiring and makes one believe that the future of this country is in good hands. Listen to the entire episode to know how Fatema, the designpreneur started this and continues to be on its advisory board, the challenges they faced, and how they plan to continue growing.

Shireen Mullick, an English Teacher by Day and an entrepreneur by night. When the pandemic struck, she started 2 things - a cooking channel on Youtube and a company that makes chemical-free natural soaps for all skin types. She is full of energy and sleeps very little, working on her designs  to give Gen Z an entirely new experience. She makes bath bombs, gift hampers, and beautiful soaps that don't look like the ordinary bar soaps one is so used to seeing, but instead are shaped like flowers or mermaids which kids adore. She customizes the soap as per a customer's needs and educates the young generation on which nature's ingredient works best for their skin type. I had a lot of fun recording this podcast solely because of her overwhelming energy and joy. Listen to the entire episode as she shares her passion and determination which took her from seeing a simple DIY video to building a company today.

Sreepriya Radhakrishnan and her team of passionate technologists, started a community all the way back in 2017, just to go in groups to attend tech conferences. Today that community has grown into a registered non-profit foundation - The Pehia Foundation and is the largest women in technology communities in Kerala, that helps people of any gender to learn more about different trending technology.
