She grew up in a house of 45 in India. Now she's building a fintech startup.
Shweta grew up in a joint family of 45 people in small-town India, where she never had to lift her own plate. At 19, she left it all behind for New Zealand, alone, determined to build a life on her own terms.In this episode, Shweta shares the winding road that followed: the "no New Zealand experience" wall that rejected her again and again, the sheer tenacity it took to break through it, and a lesson from her grandfather and a Rubik's cube that still shapes how she solves problems today. From hotel front desks to Yellow Pages, American Express, and her own food businesses through COVID, every step led her toward founding her fintech venture, Wismo Pay.This is a story about resilience, reinvention, and the power of asking "why not me?" As Shweta puts it: "You are your best advocate and your worst adversary."Her Migrant Spirit is a storytelling series celebrating the courage, creativity, and success of migrant women building their dreams in Aotearoa.
