Overview
On today’s episode of The Brand Called You, we have with us an accomplished Entrepreneur and a motivator, Mrs. Neela Kaushik. Mrs . Kaushik is the Founder of the venture, Gurgaonmoms. She is a managing graduate and has finished her MBA too. She has worked as an analyst. And her core interests have been integrated marketing.
After moving to the US after a three year break from the working life, Mrs. Kaushik found it extremely difficult and insulting to be accepted back into a job. She turned this difficulty into a social cause and started an online platform to connect moms having similar issue through Facebook. She named this venture Gurgaonmoms. Hundreds of ladies showed interest and joined the group. It was not only a platform to curate experience, recommendations and information but also a safe space for women to talk freely without getting judged. Gurgaonmoms is now a platform where job listings are also posted which makes it easier for struggling mothers to get back on their feet.
Mrs. Kaushik spoke about the gender imbalance in the workplace and how it needs to be filled. She believes that framing policies isn’t enough and that they need to be implemented.
Her venture has helped thousands of women and has turned into a safe community online. This conversation was not only very awakening about the status of writing mothers but also extremely empowering because of the work Mrs. Kaushik does.
