Deeya Pun talks about how she got into the world of acting in Nepal and gives an insight into the hard work that goes behind making a movie from working long days, doing research and post-production. Majority of her experience has been very positive but she is very honest about the fact that it’s not always a smooth journey in this field and shares a personal story about a negative experience she faced, which taught her a lot about this industry - the good and bad. We also delved into her love for climbing mountains and her reasons for starting. I have to admit just talking to her really encouraged me to turn my bucket list into reality because climbing has been on my list for so long! So hopefully once it’s safe to do so I can get out there and start my climbing journey. You can find Deeya Pun on Instagram: @deeyapun --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/richa30/message

It's not easy creating a sustainable fashion brand from scratch but Jyoti persisted and started Highonfleurs despite the obstacles that came her way. Jyoti shares her experience of working as a full-time Production Merchandiser and making time to launch Highonfleurs - created for women who are unapologetically themselves. She talks about everything that is involved in creating a fashion brand from fit outs to production, factory visit to china (including stalkers following her to her hotel room!), the importance of networking and turning to friends for help. We discuss the differences between her brand vs. other high street brands, difference in. price points, the use of deadstock fabric, using recycled labels and the consequences of choosing sustainable vs fast fashion on the entire supply chain. It was really inspiring to hear Jyoti's story and I loved how personal and honest she was about the realities of starting a fashion brand - the good and bad. Jyoti's journey also shows that it's not always necessary to go to University and it's fine to follow the path that's right for you.

In this episode, Om talks about his journey from moving to India to study his MSc in Information Security at UCL to working as a Security Consultant at Accenture where he works with different clients from a range of industries solving all sorts of problems. Om talks about how his family background influenced his career choice, how he'd never planned to study or work in London and the changes he experienced here once moving from India. He also shares his thoughts about the challenges people face in his industry and the reality of working with global companies. It was really insightful to hear about Om's role as a Security Consultant, a career that I didn't have much knowledge about and it was great interviewing Om about his journey so far. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/richa30/message
