Mum, entrepreneur and fashionista, 29 year-old Isha Kachru was quite the free-spirited, take-each-day-as-it-comes kind of girl in the city, until baby Zoella catwalked into her life and suddenly, everything took a 360 degree turn! “I want to laugh hard when someone asks me how my life has changed. It’s truly is no where close to how life was prior to Zoella, I don’t even have a second to be carefree. My world revolves around my baby. Now, I don’t have a fixed routine even for my meals, and my schedule is as unpredictable as it gets. And yet, I would not want it any other way,” shares Isha. Despite the eminent change, she reiterates that she has started loving her life so much more now, and believes that this is only just the beginning of a great phase for her and her husband Sourabh.

With a masters degree in fashion entrepreneurship from the London College of Fashion, Isha had a brief stint in the fashion and jewellery industry, which helped her gain great exposure. During her courtship with Sourabh, he persuaded her to join his family business, Funride Toys, a toy company that manufactures baby products like trikes, walkers, scooters, etc. “I currently work in the R&D department, and am involved in the designing of new products –focusing on the comfort, safety standards, colours, packaging, etc,” she shares.
