What if the life you built was only training for the life you’re meant to live?

Padmini Pandya joins us to trace a life shaped across continents and identities, born in the UK to East African Indian parents, rooted in Hindu tradition, and transformed by a decade in Asia, before corporate burnout cracked open an entirely different path.

A modern-day polymath, Padmini is a storyteller, strategist, and soulful creator. Through Pieces of Miss Mini, she shares stories, lessons, and beauty from her global journey, defying any single definition of identity. She holds four degrees, including an MBA from INSEAD and a Master’s in Industrial & Organizational Psychology.

In this conversation, we explore how success can quietly become an identity, why leaving a city that doesn’t fit can unlock momentum, and what it takes to rebuild when grief doesn’t have a name. Padmini speaks candidly about intuition, loss, spiritual practice grounded in logic, managing big energy, and cultivating aligned friendships—without falling into comparison.

For creators and leaders navigating burnout, reinvention, or a longing for belonging, this episode offers clarity, courage, and a reminder to tend your own garden.
