Upasana Konidela on Kindness, Motherhood...

The Masoom Minawala Show
About this episode

For years, I believed women could do it all—but I didn’t know how to actually structure a life where I could grow professionally, care for my family, and still make space for myself. Until I met Upasana Konidela


In this episode, I sit down with Upasana—entrepreneur, mother, and Vice Chairperson of CSR at Apollo Hospitals—to talk about what it really takes to balance business, legacy, motherhood, marriage, and mental health. We even discuss how she and her husband, Ram Charan balance multiple roles to find time for each other and to raise a family. From her approach to life coaching and goal-setting, to how she took control of her finances (despite being born into wealth), this is one of the most real and empowering conversations I’ve had.


If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by everything you’re “supposed” to juggle as a woman—trust me, you are not alone. But with the right structure, mindset, and support, you can lead a life that feels both successful and fulfilling.

My goal with this episode is simple: I want every woman watching to realize that you don’t have to choose between career, family, or self—you just need the tools to design your own version of balance. 💪


✔️ Balancing Multiple Roles – How Upasana divides time between work, family, marriage & self

✔️ Life Design – Why she treats her personal goals like quarterly business reviews

✔️ Financial Independence – Why even women born into wealth need to manage their own money

✔️ Motherhood & Marriage – The honest truth about raising a child while married to a superstar

✔️ Egg Freezing & Empowerment – How reproductive choice can give women true freedom

✔️ Women & Legacy – Building family-run businesses that put women at the helm


If you’ve been feeling pulled in too many directions—this episode will help you recalibrate, re-center, and remember your power. Watch now and take the first step toward building the life you want. ✨


Watch at 1.5x speed for a faster, more efficient listen.
