At an early age, where teenagers are busy partying and enjoying their days, Pooja was clear about her goals in life. Recognizing the struggle her friends are going through while just writing a resume, she used her language expertise to help them curate it. She found it quite interesting and upon consistently seeing such instances, she decided to venture into the world of professional storytelling.

Most people believe that in order to start a successful startup business, an entrepreneur must be young and single. One must devote all the time to the business, forego their personal life and friendships, and work extra hours on weekends and holidays. And, while much of this is true, the Founder discovered that, despite the hard work and sacrifices, it’s her connection to her family that allows her to thrive as an entrepreneur. The addition of her family inputs to her life made her a better entrepreneur.

Her fascination with the glamour and travel industry initially led her to a decade-long career with top airlines like Emirates, Jet Airways, and Indigo. However, the most magical transition in her life came with motherhood. Embracing her new role, Sunitee took a break from her aviation career to spend precious time with her son, Azaan.

Krittika D. Leekha – a new mother and the co-founder and social media & PR manager of the label Mishé gives us an insight into her personal and professional life and the striking balance between the two.

Mishé, a brand that creates conscious clothing using Japanese techniques, was established by a team of three dynamic women: Krittika, her sister Bhumika Mukhi- the creative head and founder, and her mother, Minaakshi Ahluwalia- the Indian wear designer and head of accounts. Together, they have achieved significant milestones, including winning the Lakme Fashion Week GenNext award in 2020.

Blogging wasn’t a part of Kritikka’s original plans, it began with her sharing her personal experiences with various services and products on social media. Throughout her pregnancy, the content and feedback she shared was genuine, heartfelt and thus successfully captured the interest of her audience. People began to reach out to her seeking recommendations and brands started approaching her for promotions. The positive impact on their businesses boosted her confidence and solidified her role as a credible influencer.

Speaking of influence, Kritikka has been greatly influenced by her mother, Minaakshi. Having mastered the perfect balance between being a homemaker, a mother of three and her entrepreneurial spirit, she has been an undeterred source of inspiration for Kritika and her siblings. Not only that, also having watched her mother be a passionate cook, a fitness enthusiast, manage the books and manage to design the traditional wear for Mishé, Kritikka credits the strength and versatility of the brand entirely to her mother, Minaakshi.

Following her mother’s footsteps, Kritika too manages to strike the near perfect balance between her personal and professional life.
A devoted mother, Kritikka enjoys reading, practices yoga and Pilates and indulges in new and different cuisines and places. With an eagerness no less than her mother’s, she’s taken on the task to learn the German language.

Her journey has not been one without challenges. “There were times when everything seemed to go wrong no matter what. Needless to say, I was mentally exhausted and with very little optimism. But giving up was never an option. I sought therapy, deep dived into healing, practiced affirmations daily and manifested all of my goals”, Kritikka said.
Today, she stands tall as a happy, strong and beautiful mother, a testament to the power of resilience and self-belief, an inspiration no less to her daughter and so many others.

To aspiring mom bloggers, Krittika’s word of advice would be to stay true to their opinions and content and to always post with genuine love.

Deepika Bhalla – Author & Entrepreneur – Bharata Ji Di Hatti

WhatsApp Image 2024 10 16 at 8.42.34 PM edited

Deepika Bhalla is an author and a businesswoman, balancing her role in her family’s jewelry business, Bharata Ji Di Hatti in Amritsar, with her passion for writing. She is the author of the children’s book Story of the Ordinary. Writing has always been a part of her life, but it wasn’t until the COVID-19 pandemic that she took the leap and submitted her manuscripts to publishing houses. To her surprise, a Pune-based publisher accepted her work, and from there, her journey as an author took off.

As a hands-on mother and a professional, Deepika acknowledges the challenges that come with balancing multiple roles. Time is often divided between family responsibilities and her creative pursuits, but she sees this as part of the journey. The struggle to find time for writing or completing tasks is a familiar one for many women, but Deepika views it as a part of life’s unpredictability and flexibility.

Her message to women entrepreneurs is that life doesn’t always follow a set plan. Deepika’s own path is a testament to this—she moved from Mumbai to the small town of Amritsar, leaving behind an active career plan, and faced a period of uncertainty about what to do next. Seventeen years ago, there were no clear career opportunities for her, and it felt like she had to start from scratch. This challenging phase taught her that success isn’t always linear, and sometimes, the best opportunities come when you least expect them.

Deepika encourages women to remain open to new opportunities, even if they lead in unexpected directions. Flexibility and the willingness to start afresh are key, as you never know which path will lead to your success story. For Deepika, the journey from uncertainty to fulfillment was not easy or predictable, but it was guided by a belief in divine timing. She firmly believes that what is meant for you will never pass you by.
