Are we more connected than ever before, yet lonelier than ever?In this thought-provoking episode of Unbound Special, Mamtaa sits down with Shraddha Chaturvedi, Founder of Get Companion, to discuss one of the most pressing emotional challenges of our time — loneliness in the digital age.We live in a world where technology allows us to connect instantly with anyone, anywhere. Social media platforms, messaging apps, video calls, and even AI-driven tools promise constant connectivity. Yet despite this digital closeness, many people feel emotionally distant, disconnected, and deeply lonely.In this powerful and honest conversation, Shraddha shares her insights into the growing loneliness epidemic and explains why modern relationships are becoming increasingly complex. Through her work with Get Companion, she has witnessed firsthand how individuals from different age groups — from young adults to older individuals — are struggling with emotional isolation.This episode explores the deeper layers of loneliness that often remain hidden behind the perfectly curated images we see online.Shraddha talks about how loneliness today is not limited to a particular age group or life stage. While many assume that older individuals face loneliness the most, the reality is that young people, professionals, and even those in relationships are experiencing emotional isolation.One of the most surprising observations she shares is how relationship challenges and emotional disconnect have become more common in modern life. In a world where communication has become faster and easier, genuine emotional connection often seems harder to maintain.During this conversation, we also explore the impact of digital platforms on human relationships. Social media has changed the way people communicate, express emotions, and build connections. While it has made it easier to stay in touch, it has also created a culture of comparison, unrealistic expectations, and emotional distance.Shraddha explains how many people today feel surrounded by people online but still struggle to find authentic companionship and meaningful conversations in their everyday lives.Another important theme discussed in this episode is how loneliness affects mental and emotional well-being. Emotional isolation can lead to stress, anxiety, depression, and a loss of motivation in different areas of life. When people lack a safe space to talk openly about their thoughts and emotions, it becomes harder for them to navigate challenges.Through Get Companion, Shraddha is trying to address this growing need for meaningful human connection. Her initiative focuses on creating spaces where individuals can find genuine companionship, emotional support, and conversations that go beyond superficial interactions.This episode also highlights how technology should ideally enhance human life rather than replace human connection. While digital tools can be powerful enablers, they cannot fully replace empathy, understanding, and the emotional warmth that comes from real human interaction.Throughout the conversation, Mamtaa and Shraddha reflect on the importance of rebuilding authentic connections in a fast-paced digital world. They discuss why creating meaningful relationships — whether through friendships, family bonds, or supportive communities — is essential for emotional well-being.If you have ever felt like you are constantly connected online but still feel emotionally alone, this episode will resonate deeply with you. It invites viewers to pause, reflect, and rethink the way we approach relationships, communication, and companionship in modern life.If you would like to share your story or collaborate with Unbound With Mamtaa, feel free to connect with us.📩 For collaborations and inquiries:unboundwithmamta@gmail.com

In this inspiring episode of Unbound with Mamtaa, we bring you the powerful story of Devashree Nampurkar, Director of Shree Refrigerations Limited, a company known for manufacturing specialized air-conditioning systems used in Indian Navy warships and submarines. Her journey is not just about business leadership but about breaking stereotypes and redefining what women can achieve in industries traditionally dominated by men.Growing up in an entrepreneurial family, Devashree was exposed to the world of engineering and manufacturing from a very young age. She witnessed her father building the company with dedication while her mother stood beside him as a strong pillar of support. Watching this journey unfold in front of her eyes helped shape her perspective toward entrepreneurship, leadership, and the importance of teamwork. For Devashree, mechanical engineering was never just a career choice it was a natural extension of the environment she grew up in.In a society where heavy industrial sectors like mechanical engineering and manufacturing are often perceived as male-dominated spaces, Devashree chose to step forward with confidence and determination. She pursued mechanical engineering with clarity in her mind and a strong belief in her abilities. What makes her journey even more inspiring is that her parents always supported her independence and never imposed decisions on her. This freedom to make her own choices played a crucial role in shaping her career path.One of the most interesting aspects of Devashree’s journey is how she entered the family business. Instead of directly taking up a leadership position, she started her career at the company as a marketing trainee. By working her way up step by step, she learned every aspect of the business. This allowed her to gain the trust of employees, understand the operations closely, and build meaningful relationships with the team.Many of the people working in the company have seen her grow since childhood, as she often visited the shop floor and observed the operations while growing up. Because of this connection, she never felt like an outsider in the organization. Over the years, she worked closely with the team, gained hands-on experience, and gradually moved up the hierarchy. Today, she holds the position of Director — not because it was handed to her, but because she earned it through dedication and hard work.In this conversation, Devashree also talks about the common misconception that second-generation entrepreneurs receive success easily. She openly shares that comparisons and assumptions are always there, but the only way to overcome them is through consistent effort and results. Her journey is proof that true leadership is built through experience, credibility, and the ability to work alongside people.Another powerful insight she shares is the importance of building a strong support system. According to Devashree, behind every successful individual there is not just one person, but a complete ecosystem of support. For her, this includes her family at home — her father, husband, and mother — as well as the team she has built within the company. She believes that when women want to grow professionally, they should actively build a support system that empowers them both personally and professionally.The conversation also highlights how industries are evolving today. Mechanical engineering is no longer limited to machines, oil, and shop floors. With advancements in technology, automation, design, and management, the sector now offers diverse opportunities for innovation and leadership. Devashree encourages more women to explore careers in engineering and manufacturing, emphasizing that the barriers that once existed are gradually breaking down.📩 Email: unboundwithmamta@gmail.comStay tuned for more inspiring conversations on Unbound with Mamtaa.

Welcome to a powerful edition of Unbound Special, where we celebrate women not through labels, but through their journeys.This episode is not about age.It is not about comparison.It is about choice.As part of our International Women’s Day celebration, we bring together women from diverse professional paths to talk about reinvention, rediscovery, and reclaiming one’s creative voice.In this episode, we sit down with Ritika Modi — a Poetess and Performer who has consciously chosen a creative pursuit as her professional path. Her journey reflects something deeply relevant for the woman of today: the courage to begin again, not out of compulsion, but out of passion.A Creative Choice — This Time for HerselfMany of us begin our careers based on immediacy — academic direction, financial needs, family responsibilities, practical expectations. Those choices are valid. They shape us. They build us.But what happens when a woman pauses, reflects, and reconnects with her inner Artist?This episode explores that second phase — the moment of rediscovery where career is no longer just about livelihood, but about fulfillment.For Ritika, poetry was not merely a hobby. It became a calling. A Poem became her medium of Expression. The stage became her space. The mic became her Voice.This is about making a second inning — not to prove anything, not to compete, not to reject previous roles — but to creatively expand.And that shift is powerful.The Poetess, The Performer, The Creative SpiritRitika identifies strongly as a Poetess — someone who writes from lived emotion. Her work touches on Love, Pain, longing, strength, vulnerability — all coexisting in one human experience.As a Performer, she carries that written word onto the stage, transforming Poem into presence.Her style is unabashed yet tender. Bold yet Romani in its emotional depth. There is romance in her language, but there is also clarity. There is softness, but also strength.She represents a growing movement of women who are claiming space as Artists — not waiting for validation, but choosing visibility.Career Beyond SurvivalOne of the most important themes in this Unbound Special is the evolution of career itself.Earlier, career often meant:StabilityStructureSocial validationToday, for many women, career is also about:Creative alignmentPersonal truthEmotional expressionThis episode does not position one path above another. It does not diminish domestic roles or traditional professions. Instead, it highlights that a woman’s journey can expand. It can evolve. It can take new shape.Choosing something new does not reject the past.It builds upon it.And that is the essence of reinvention.Expression as EmpowermentThrough this conversation, we explore what it means to express without hesitation.To be Unabashed about your emotions.To speak your Voice clearly.To allow Love and Pain to coexist.To embrace Poetry as Power.For Ritika, creativity is not performance alone. It is healing. It is articulation. It is understanding oneself at a deeper level.In a world that often asks women to adjust, accommodate, and prioritize others, choosing creative fulfillment becomes a quiet act of empowerment.Celebrating International Women’s Day — The Unbound WayThis Unbound Special is our way of celebrating International Women’s Day — not through slogans, but through stories.By bringing together diverse profiles, we aim to showcase journeys that reflect:ResilienceReinventionAuthentic ExpressionCreative CourageBecause empowerment today is not one-dimensional.It may look like leadership.It may look like entrepreneurship.It may look like poetry on a stage.It may simply look like a woman choosing herself.Love. Pain. Poetry. Power.This episode is layered with emotion. It explores how poetry becomes a bridge between personal experience and collective resonance.

Welcome to Unbound Specials, where real stories meet raw authenticity.In this deeply transformative episode, we sit down with Dr. Anuradha Mathad, a woman who embodies resilience, integrity, and courage. With over two decades of experience in wellness and Ayurveda, she has not only shaped luxury wellness experiences globally but has also lived her life guided by strong principles and unwavering authenticity.From a small town in Hubli, Karnataka, raised in a conservative academic household, to becoming a leading voice in integrative and authentic wellness Dr. Anuradha’s journey is layered, inspiring, and profoundly human.Her foundation lies in Ayurveda, but her path expanded far beyond a conventional clinical practice. Over the years, she integrated Reiki, meditation, yoga, and sound therapy not as passing trends, but as complementary sciences deeply studied and practised. In a world where ancient systems are often diluted for commercial appeal, she firmly believes in preserving authenticity. Traditional sciences like Ayurveda, she emphasizes, must be practised in their true spirit and depth.In this conversation, she breaks down Ayurveda beyond common stereotypes of doshas, kadhas, and Panchakarma. She explains timeless pillars like Ahara (nutrition), Nidra (sleep), and Brahmacharya (moderation) — principles that are more relevant today than ever before. From understanding how imbalances accumulate over time to exploring the science behind sound healing and the law of entrainment, this episode bridges ancient wisdom with modern scientific understanding.We also explore how India’s luxury wellness landscape has evolved over the last two decades from heavily Ayurveda-led spa models to a more integrated, global approach to well-being. Dr. Anuradha shares valuable insights into maintaining depth, discipline, and training standards in an industry that can sometimes become trend-driven or superficial.Through our rapid reflex round, we discover what defines happiness for her (gratitude), what she believes should not exist in the world (hypocrisy), and what she feels every woman must cultivate self-love. Because without loving oneself, self-care and prioritisation can never truly take root.This episode is about healing not just physically, but energetically and consciously.It is about commitment to lifelong learning.It is about authenticity over dilution.It is about choosing growth, again and again.If this conversation resonates with you whether you are in wellness, leadership, or simply seeking a more balanced life this episode offers depth, clarity, and perspective.Let’s continue bringing forward voices that are unheard, stories that are untold, and humans who are unstoppable.Let’s keep unbounding together.#UnboundWithMamtaa #DrAnuradhaMathad #Ayurveda #WellnessLeadership #Authenticity #LuxuryWellness #HealingJourney #WomenWhoLead #IntegrativeHealth #UnboundSpecial

In today’s fast-moving startup world, many young entrepreneurs and founders find themselves disillusioned -constantly comparing their journeys with others, chasing funding, validation, or success because “if they can do it, so can I.” But is that really how great enterprises are built?In this powerful episode of Unbound, we dive deep into the real mindset required to build something meaningful, sustainable, and truly impactful. Our guest, Sandeep Vijay, Founder of Idea2Unicorn, startup mentor, thinker, teacher, and philosopher, shares timeless wisdom that challenges the surface-level narratives around entrepreneurship.One core truth anchors this conversation: if you want to become big, you have to give big. Growth doesn’t come from entitlement alone, comparisons, or shortcuts. It comes from value. From asking the right questions—What are you offering to your customers? Is your offering truly big enough? Does it genuinely make their lives easier?Sandeep explains that success is not accidental. It requires the alignment of three essential forces:1 - Creating entitlement by giving real value2 - Dreaming big without fear3 - Taking massive action, as famously emphasised by Tony RobbinsThese three elements must come together for any entrepreneur to truly succeed.Drawing from Jim Collins’ legendary book “Good to Great”, Sandeep introduces the Hedgehog Concept—a powerful framework that helps founders evaluate whether their idea has global potential, economic merit, and personal passion. It’s a must-reflect concept for anyone standing at the threshold of entrepreneurship or already walking the path and wondering what’s working and what’s not.The episode also explores Sandeep Vijay’s remarkable journey—from his early corporate career in 1988 with Godfrey Philips (a subsidiary of Philip Morris), working on product management and market entry strategies far ahead of their time, to applying those learnings in the world of startups and fintech. His experiences reveal how life continuously trains us through events, preparing us for what comes next.Beyond business, the conversation beautifully expands into values, relationships, and inner peace. Sandeep shares his belief that respect is the foundation of relationships, drawing wisdom from the Vedas, where men and women are seen as divine counterparts, Vishnu and Lakshmi. According to him, respect leads to peace, and peace ultimately leads to abundance.With rapid-fire reflections, honest life lessons, and unfiltered thoughts, this episode of Unbound is not just a podcast - it’s a mirror for every dreamer, founder, and innovator who wants to build with purpose, integrity, and long-term impact.If you’re an entrepreneur seeking clarity, depth, and a new way of thinking about success, this conversation is for you.Let’s keep unbounding together.

In this deeply moving episode of Unbound, we sit down with Dr. Ankur Garg, a leading liver transplant surgeon whose journey is defined not just by medical excellence but by responsibility, conscience, and humanity.Dr. Garg opens up about what truly keeps him going in one of the most demanding professions in the world. Beyond the stress, emergencies, and life-or-death decisions, it is the smiles of recovered patients that become his daily motivation. From handwritten notes and heartfelt gestures to patients returning months later walking, driving, and living full lives, these moments make every sacrifice worthwhile. Stories of patients who once arrived on ventilators via air ambulances and later pick him up from airports themselves stand as powerful reminders of transformation and hope.The conversation then takes us into some of the most transformative cases Dr. Garg has witnessed—patients once weak, jaundiced, and confined to wheelchairs, now healthy and independent after liver transplants. These experiences reflect not only the power of medical science but also the emotional fulfilment that comes with healing lives.Dr. Garg also shares his personal journey into medicine. Interestingly, becoming a doctor was not originally his own plan, but a path chosen by his father. From initially enrolling in engineering to being redirected into medical college through NEET, his journey evolved naturally. During his surgical training, one organ fascinated him the most, the liver, an organ few dared to operate on at the time. That curiosity eventually led him into the complex and challenging field of liver transplantation.The episode also touches upon the delicate balance between professional responsibility and personal life. Dr. Garg speaks candidly about missing family events, vacations, and personal moments, and how he justifies these sacrifices to himself. For him, being a doctor is no longer about earning a livelihood it is about carrying the responsibility of saving lives. Whether a call comes at midnight or a concern seems small medically but huge for the patient, he believes his duty is to be present.In a rapid-fire reflection round, Dr. Garg shares simple yet profound life philosophies—living life one day at a time, answering to one’s conscience, and ensuring that no responsibility is abandoned. For the past 20 years, he ends every day by asking himself just one question: Did I do my best today?This episode is a powerful reminder that behind every surgeon is a human being constantly navigating choices, ethics, and compassion. Unbound with Mamta brings you this unfiltered, honest conversation one that inspires, grounds, and reminds us of the true meaning of responsibility and service.✨ Let’s keep unbounding together.Connect With Mamtaa: LinkedIn- https://www.linkedin.com/in/mamtaadhingra/Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/mamtaapodcaster/Twitter- https://twitter.com/DhingraMamtaaFacebook- https://www.facebook.com/mamtaa.dhingra13

In this powerful and deeply insightful episode of Unbound, we sit down with Sandeep K. Vij, Founder of Idea2Unicorn, to explore what truly separates hype from substance in entrepreneurship, leadership, and life.Today’s startup ecosystem is filled with noise—funding announcements, overnight success stories, comparisons, and the constant urge to replicate someone else’s journey. But where are young entrepreneurs and founders getting disillusioned? Why does chasing “what worked for others” often lead to burnout or failure? Sandeep Vij breaks this illusion with rare honesty and decades of lived experience.Drawing from his journey that began in 1988 with Godfrey Philips (a Philip Morris subsidiary), Sandeep shares how early exposure to product management, entry strategy, and large-scale vision became a real training ground for startups—long before the term “startup culture” was popular. From launching early retail concepts ahead of their time, to transforming businesses in FinTech, creating India’s largest loyalty program, and building India’s first bill payment system, his journey is a masterclass in fundamentals over hype.At the heart of this conversation lies one central truth:If you want to make big, you have to give big.Sandeep explains that true entrepreneurial success is built on three pillars:1 - Giving real value to customers far beyond what you charge2 - Dreaming big expanding vision from local to global3 - Taking massive action, consistent, grounded executionHe introduces a simple yet powerful litmus test for ideas: if you can write your idea on one page and 8 out of 10 people say “wow,” only then is it worth pursuing. Referencing Jim Collins’ Good to Great and the Hedgehog Concept, he breaks down how passion, economic advantage, and global relevance must intersect for a business to truly scale.Beyond business, this episode dives into leadership, values, relationships, wealth mindset, gratitude, and purpose. From being a servant leader to respecting people over ego, from operating in abundance instead of scarcity to redefining wealth as simplicity and balance—this conversation goes far beyond entrepreneurship.Sandeep also shares deeply personal philosophies on life, relationships, parenting, success, and failure, reminding us that enterprises are meant to serve, not just to exit.
