Women Led Businesses

Madhu S, an artist, a surface pattern designer, an entrepreneur, and a Certified NLP expert is set to doing what excites her, "art". Her artwork is sold across the globe and she believes in its power of expression and therapy as she names each piece of art something so meaningful that it resonates with the customers every time they see it. She shares the journey of going from making what was just a hobby at first to help calm her down from a hectic day at work(Fashion Incubator) to a full-time business - Femvisionary. Unexpectedly it not only turned out to be enjoyable but also fruitful for several of her students who enroll for courses like "Watercolour brushstroke florals", which she should have a patent for. She also offers a wide variety of merchandise with these famous floral designs on them. Listen to the full episode as Madhu shares several tips on how women should be okay with calling themselves an entrepreneur, with not doing everything themselves, and so on. Check out all the links below to learn more about Madhu's work as she is set to launch a bunch of courses focusing on helping artists set up their own businesses, next month i.e. Feb 2021.

In this episode, we meet my school friend Lulu Nazer from M.E.S. Indian School. She used to be an interior designer and has been painting since college and selling her artwork for several years now. "If you do what you love, you won't have to work a single day" Resolving to live by this principle, Lulu has worked as an Art Professor and now focuses full time on her commissions and creating beautiful sceneries, intricate design, and mesmerizing pieces of paintings. She shares the challenges she faced, what keeps inspiring her and how her skill breaks the status quo in her extended family. With WLB podcast episodes on artists, like Lulu, I hope to normalize art and men and women choosing to do arts instead of computers, math, or science.

Maya Mohan, an architect by profession and a foodie at heart, decided to bring forth the tastes, authentic recipes and medicines of Kerala to all of India, along with her family. Kalchatti is an online store where you can order unadulterated organic pickles, all the original masalas which go into Kerala's dishes.  Listen to this fun conversation (hopefully without drooling) as Maya explains how the research, marketing, and online publicity is being done for this venture which aims to sell mouth-watering cuisines and to create awareness regarding the goodness of the kind of food that originates from every state.  We are what we eat eventually right. :P This platform is also a dream come true for Maya's Mom, who is the source of inspiration and also the main supplier of all the spicy pickles and snacks they would be selling.  Mom-led business it is. :)
