From Air Force One to Heartlines: Chandrani Ghosh on Power, Identity & Finding Her Voice

In this episode of The AboutHer Show, Chandrani Ghosh, author of Heartlines, shares her journey from covering the Clinton White House and the Forbes Rich List to writing a novel that explores love, identity, ambition, and moral choices. Through Sharmila Basu’s story, we explore the emotional realities behind success, the Indian-American experience, and the courage it takes to claim one’s voice.

Part of our Healing Through Words series, this conversation reflects the pillars of Power & Leadership and Voice & Visibility, showing how storytelling can become a powerful way to examine identity, influence, and the narratives we choose to own.
