25 Years in Corporate to Startup Founder: How Travel Built "Mummy Ne Banaya | The Trip Talk

Does a 9-to-5 actually prepare you for life, or does it keep you from living it?

In this episode of The Trip Talk, we sit down with Vishwalok Nath, a media veteran with over two decades of corporate experience who pivoted to launch his own startup, "Mummy Ne Banaya."

We dive deep into how travel wasn't just a break for him—it was the research, the healing, and the catalyst he needed to build something authentic. If you are a corporate professional feeling stuck, burned out, or dreaming of building something of your own, this conversation is your blueprint.

In this episode, we discuss:
✈️ The Corporate Exit: How 25 years in media shaped his worldview and why he finally chose to step out.
🌏 Travel as a Teacher: Why travel provides the business insights no MBA can teach you.
🥘 The "Mummy Ne Banaya" Story: How exploring the world led to rediscovering the value of authentic, home-cooked love.
🧠 Mental Clarity: How stepping away from the desk and into the world resets your ambition.

Travel isn't just about sightseeing; it's about seeing opportunities that a busy mind misses. Whether you want to launch a startup or just find peace, this episode will challenge you to pack your bags and find your answer.
