  • Dr. Ishi Mandrik: Roots to Routes
    Jun 19 2026

    Most people spend their lives searching for one passion. My guest built her life by following curiosity instead. In this episode of Roots to Routes, I sit down with Dr. Ishi Mandrik - orthodontist, entrepreneur, singer, musician, film maker, traveller, and lifelong learner.

    About Dr. Ishi Mandrik: From building a successful career in orthodontics to opening her own clinic, exploring creative ventures, and saying "yes" to new experiences, her journey is a reminder that growth often comes from curiosity, not certainty.

    We talk about childhood influences, career choices, taking risks, embracing change, and why you don't need to have life completely figured out to keep moving forward. A conversation about roots, reinvention, and the unexpected routes that shape who we become.

    (Curiosity, Personal Growth, Orthodontist, Entrepreneurship, Career Journey, Growth Mindset, Self Discovery, Life Lessons, Podcast India, Reinvention, Learning, Inspiration)
