Building a startup is difficult.
Building trust in healthcare is even harder.

In Part 2 of this conversation on The Lifeboat, Vishal Gupta and Rachna Gupta dive deeper into the realities of building a mission-driven healthcare brand in India.

What started as a belief in Ayurveda slowly evolved into a fast-growing company focused on solving complex issues around women’s reproductive health.

• Why honesty with partners and suppliers can make or break a business
• The role of education and content in building trust with consumers

• Why the first 10,000 customers matter more than chasing rapid growth
