Born in India, raised in Malaysia, and now thriving in California, Shilpi Zalani’s story is one of courage, reinvention, and breaking generational cycles. After achieving the milestone of being the first woman in her family to earn a degree and land a corporate IT role, Shilpi faced a breaking point when her young daughter asked, “Why do you have to work?” That single question led her to resign and pursue a more fulfilling path.

In this episode, Shilpi shares how she built and sold multiple six-figure businesses, navigated an arranged marriage, and transformed mom guilt into motivation. Her journey—spanning after-school franchises, staffing firms, and even a cookie brand—reveals the resilience and adaptability needed to thrive as both a mother and entrepreneur.

Through her From 9 to Thrive program and her proprietary T.H.R.I.V.E. B.I.G. framework, Shilpi now empowers ambitious working moms to step out of burnout and into freedom—without sacrificing what matters most.

Top 3 Highlights:

  • 💡 The courage it takes to leave security for freedom
  • 👩‍👧 How “mom guilt” became her greatest motivator
  • 🔑 Why fulfillment and impact define true success
