Nanda Mehta on Yoni Ki Baat: South Asian Women’s Stories, Identity, and Culture
Episode 12
Thursday, 19 March, 2026
Today, we’re marching for change with Nanda Mehta — a mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, women’s advocate, entrepreneur, and cultural connector whose life has spanned continents and communities.Raised across Asia, Africa, and America by the age of eighteen, Nanda developed a global lens early on — and a deep belief that travel is one of the greatest forms of education. She is the founder and CEO of Creative Journeys, a travel and event management company she launched in 1990, grounded in the idea that exploration expands understanding.In 2015, she founded Ahaana, a nonprofit dedicated to elevating cultural awareness of South Asian communities through women’s voices, art, and theater. At the heart of Ahaana’s work is Yoni Ki Baat, a nationally recognized storytelling platform featuring bold and authentic stories written and performed by South Asian artists. The organization has since expanded to include MenOlogues and a youth storytelling initiative supporting AANHPI mental health and intergenerational voice.From eco-conscious global initiatives like The Renascence Project to programs supporting widows, acid-attack survivors, and women in transition, Nanda’s work centers dignity, storytelling, and empowerment across borders.Often called “The Connector,” Nanda builds platforms that foster prosperity, cultural understanding, and community healing — all while remaining deeply rooted in family, dance, and lifelong learning.If you haven’t already, please give us a quick review and rating on Apple podcasts and Spotify and don’t forget you can follow us FaceBook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.
