    Riddhima Kapoor from Veggie Vice on Creating Things You Wish Existed

    What do you get when you mix an MBA, a love for snacks, and a lot of trial-and-error zucchini experiments? Veggie Vice. In this episode, we're joined by Riddhima—aka the Chip Queen—founder of the cult-favorite veggie chip brand Veggie Vise. We talk about her career pivot from finance and beauty into the wild world of CPG, how an air fryer in her NYC apartment sparked a viral business, and why TikTok became her unexpected marketing superpower. Plus, we get into what it really takes to build something from the ground up—and yes, we end with a live taste test. Spoiler: broccoli has never been sexier.

    Rachel Stahlke on Balance, Self-Worth, and Being An Everyday It Girl

    In this episode of The Soarce, Arpita sits down with Rachel Stahlke—finance girl by day, content creator by night, and forever the Everyday It Girl. You might know her from TikTok or Substack, but today we go deeper. Rachel opens up about how she balances corporate life, motherhood, and creative expression—and why she’s done pretending to be someone she’s not. We talk about everything from skincare scams and friendship breakups to redefining success and navigating the noise of modern womanhood. This conversation is raw, real, and full of high-low moments (including drugstore lip gloss recs and hot takes on Substack supremacy). If you’ve ever felt pressure to be everything at once—or questioned what it really means to “have it all”—this one’s for you.

    Not To Be Dramatic...But We're Sooo Back

    Welcome to the first episode of the Soarce Podcast (formerly The Modern Millennial), where we're diving deep into growth, reflections, and all the messy bits of life that make us who we are. Today, I'm excited to share some real talk about the ups and downs we've all been through—because let's be honest, life is never just a straight shot; it’s more like a wild rollercoaster ride. I’ll be spilling the tea on the lessons I’ve learned this past year, from the importance of rest being the ultimate flex to how we’re all just trying to figure it out as we go along. Plus, we’ll chat about the beauty of nostalgia and why it’s totally okay to reminisce about the good ol' days while still keeping our eyes on the present. So grab your favorite drink, settle in, and let’s get ready to soar through this journey together.
