S4E162: Shravani Dang on Art, Corporate Leadership, and Building ArtAdda: A Life of Two Worlds

What does it look like to build two extraordinary lives and refuse to let either one shrink? Shravani Dang has spent three decades doing exactly that, rising to Vice President at Avantha, serving on global boards, and simultaneously collecting art, founding ArtAdda, documenting food history, and writing fiction. In this conversation, she talks about the instinct that built a creative community, what the corporate world taught her that art never could, and why culinary heritage is a story worth telling before it disappears. She also gives us a glimpse into her short story collection, There’s an Elephant in My Garden, and what the elephant really is.
