"Weakness is given by God, but limits we set." - Deep BajajDeep Bajaj's powerful statement encapsulates a core theme: overcoming limitations and shaping our destinies through self-awareness and conscious choices. Our internal response to external challenges defines us.Deep Bajaj, 42, is the co-founder of Sirona Hygiene, a revolutionary femtech company that addressed previously ignored intimate and menstrual hygiene needs for Indian women. From a modest background, he built Sirona into a leader in its category, culminating in a ₹450 crore all-cash acquisition by the Good Glamm Group. Deep, along with his brother, stepped down to allow Sirona to scale further. He has been part of 2 other ventures where he has been part of large teams. He has personally sold door-to-door and also sold at large events. He's now a passionate angel investor, backing around 50 startups, and a mentor who believes in the power of people and adaptable solutions.Other Insights from the Conversation:From door-to-door sales to a multi-crore exit: The power of perseverance and adaptability.Building a femtech pioneer: How Sirona created a category and addressed unserved needs.Innovation driven by customer feedback: The role of listening in product development.On time is late.The importance of team, trust, and clear roles in successful partnerships.India's startup ecosystem: Excitement and advice for aspiring entrepreneurs.The critical distinction between partnership and collaboration.Chapters:(0:00) Introduction: "Inner Journeys" and Deep Bajaj's Unique Path(2:30) Delhi Roots: Growing Up with a Drive for Financial Independence(5:15) The 9th Standard Wake-Up Call: Failing Math and Finding New Strengths(9:00) Early Career Choices: Sales, Australia, and Paying Back the Loan(12:45) Thyme Advertising: Event Management and Early Entrepreneurial Success(16:20) Joining Carpet Couture: Supporting His Wife's Venture(19:50) The Genesis of Sirona: A Personal Mission to Solve Women's Hygiene Issues(23:35) Product Innovation: Responding to Customer Needs and Market Gaps(28:10) Building a Femtech Category: Challenges and Triumphs(32:00) The ₹450 Crore Exit: Stepping Back to Let Sirona Soar(35:45) Angel Investing: Turning Around Underdog Startups(39:20) The Future of Femtech and Deep's Continued Commitment(42:55) Family Time, Writing, and What's Next for Deep Bajaj(46:30) Wrap up and reflections with Deep and Divakar.#motivation #startup #inspiration #femtech #reflection #innerjourney #entrepreneurship #adaptability #personalgrowth #perseverance #partnership #commitment
