    S3E105: Grace, Grit & Garments: Meena Bindra on Building Biba and Breaking Barriers
    Jul 3 2025
    🧵 We’re back with Season 3 of The AboutHer Show—and what better way to kick it off than with our 105th episode, featuring the iconic Meena Bindra, founder of Biba. A pioneer who built a fashion empire later in life, Meena’s story is one of quiet strength, bold choices, and enduring impact.✨ This conversation sits at the intersection of two of our key themes this season—Her Worth and The Second Act. It’s a powerful reminder that it’s never too late to bet on yourself, and that a woman’s value deepens with experience, not ageChapters:(0:00) | The First StitchIntroduction to Meena Bindra and her incredible journey.(2:53) | Before Biba: The Woman Behind the BrandWho was Meena Bindra before she became a household name?(5:02) | Age is Just a Number, Gender is Not a LimitationHow age and gender shaped her confidence—and never held her back.(6:54) | Space to GrowWith her husband relocating for work, Meena found the freedom to build something of her own.(10:02) | Bet on YourselfHer advice to women afraid to take financial risks when starting something new.(12:48) | Silent StormsThe Unseen Battles of Being a Woman Entrepreneur in India.(14:41) | Draping EmpowermentHow Biba became more than a brand—it became a movement for women.(16:31) | Passing the BatonWhat it felt like to hand over the reins of Biba to her son, Siddharth.(19:26) | Legacy, ReimaginedA son taking his mother’s legacy forward—and what it means for gender norms.(21:11) | Then & Now: The Startup ShiftHow the entrepreneurial landscape has changed since Meena began.(24:02) | Women Mean BusinessWhy women’s contributions in business are still underestimated.(25:50) | Pages from the PastWhy she decided to write her story—and the emotional moments along the way.(28:36) | Words to the Next GenerationHer heartfelt message to young women dreaming big.(29:37) | Rapid Fire: The Woman Behind the WardrobeA light-hearted wrap-up with quick takes from Meena’s life and legacy.Follow The About Her Show on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://aboutherbysangeeta.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For any other queries, email us at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠web.abouther@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Disclaimer:Guest views are their own.
