Unbound with Mamtaa

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.

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. Legacy is not built by chasing valuation, but by creating meaningful impact.Whether you are:- A budding entrepreneur- A founder at a crossroads- A leader seeking clarity- Or someone simply looking to realign with purposeThis episode offers timeless wisdom, practical frameworks, and grounding truths.🎙️ Welcome to Unbound a space curated to unravel the journeys of extraordinary minds who think beyond limits and live with intention.👉 Watch till the end for a rapid-fire round packed with insights you’ll want to pause and reflect on.

In this powerful episode of Unbound with Mamta, we sit down with Dr. Ankur Garg, one of India’s leading Liver Transplant Surgeons, to explore the human side of a profession often seen only through results and recovery charts.This conversation goes far beyond medicine.Dr. Garg opens up about what truly keeps him going on days filled with pressure, emergencies, emotional fatigue, and life-altering decisions. His biggest motivation doesn’t come from titles or recognition it comes from patients who return healthy, smiling, asking for a photograph, writing a handwritten note, or honoring him in their own cultural ways. These moments, he says, are what make the struggle worth it.He shares deeply moving stories of transformation patients who once arrived on ventilators or wheelchairs, weak and barely able to stand, returning months later walking, driving themselves to the hospital, and living full lives. For Dr. Garg, liver transplant is not just a life-saving procedure; it is a life-transforming journey.The episode also traces his personal path into medicine how becoming a doctor wasn’t a childhood certainty, how a pivotal decision at 18 shaped his future, and how fascination with the liver led him into one of the most complex surgical specialties. He reflects on how liver transplant in India has evolved over the last two decades—from limited centers and specialists to a growing ecosystem of advanced care and training.What makes this conversation truly special is Dr. Garg’s honesty about the emotional weight doctors carry. He speaks about forming bonds with patients and families, the pain of losses, and the difficult responsibility of breaking hard news. He explains why emotional detachment is not a lack of empathy, but a professional necessity—without it, doctors simply wouldn’t be able to continue.We also touch upon the rarely discussed impact of this profession on personal life missed family moments, disrupted routines, and the constant balance between responsibility and presence at home. Dr. Garg shares how he justifies these choices to himself, guided by one core belief: when a patient is under his care, that responsibility comes first.The episode closes with reflections on empathy, conviction, and living with a clear conscience.
