Today, Siddhi shares her inspiring journey through the ups and downs of entrepreneurship. She talks about how COVID-19 initially crippled their business by making it illegal to book private chefs, but they quickly adapted by offering online cooking classes, which led to a successful pitch on Dragon's Den. Siddhi also dives into her diverse background, from competitive Bollywood dancing to trading on Wall Street, eventually fueling her entrepreneurial success.
