Episode description as stored

A 4th-generation Indian shaped by migration from India to East Africa, to the UK, the U.S., nearly a decade in Asia, and back again, Padmini carries generations of movement in her bones. Her work is a collection of love letters to life — reflections on belonging, generational shifts, identity, heartbreak, ambition, and the quiet courage it takes to keep evolving. In this episode, Anna and Padmini explore how history shapes us, how reinvention saves us, and how style, spirituality, and storytelling become tools for reclamation. 👠 Key Moments: Growing up as the daughter of refugees — and how generational migration shaped Padmini’s sense of self Navigating life across the UK, U.S., Asia, and beyond — and redefining what “home” really means Balancing high-level corporate strategy with spiritual awakenings and inner work The emotional weight of diaspora — and the freedom of self-authorship Reinvention, burnout, rebirth — and learning to evolve without apology Fashion as cultural storytelling — how personal style reflects identity and belonging Why being “in-between” cultures can become your greatest strength Whether you’ve ever felt caught between worlds, careers, or versions of yourself — this conversation is a reminder that identity is not singular. It’s layered. It’s lived. It’s constantly unfolding. 🎧 Listen now for a story of migration, memory, and becoming — one chapter at a time. Adding a chic twist to each episode, the 'I Want Her Shoes Podcast' is recorded in Anna’s stunning personal closet, strategically located near the vibrant Miami Design District. This unique setting not only provides a visually captivating backdrop but also embodies the spirit of fashion and innovation that the area is known for. 📺 Watch the episodes on YouTube to get a glimpse of this one-of-a-kind Miami closet—it’s definitely worth the view! https://www.youtube.com/@IWantHerShoesPodcast Follow us for more updates: IWHS Pod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iwanthershoespodcast/ IWHS Pod Website: https://iwanthershoes.com/ Anna’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/iwanthershoes/ Padmini’s IG: https://www.instagram.com/piecesofmissmini Padmini’s YT: https://www.youtube.com/@piecesofmissmini Padmini’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/padminipandya/ EPISODE CREDITS: Writer and Host: Anna Anisin Produced, edited, and mixed by the Formulatedby Team Follow us on IG Watch on Youtube
