Welcome to ‘The Resilient Entrepreneur’ podcast where every month, author and speaker, Dhruti Shah shares a new story of an entrepreneur who has proven to be unstoppable by staying resilient.

As promised, today’s episode marks the opening of a brand-new Season 2 of ‘The Resilient Entrepreneur’. In this season, we will bring you stories of social entrepreneurs who are not just grappling with the challenges of a new start-up, but are also in the business of changing mindsets and impacting lives. They have taken the concept of big, hairy audacious goals to a whole new level!

Our guests on this first episode join us all the way from the beautiful town of Ladakh in northern India. They are the co-founders of a community-driven social enterprise that works with farmers, producers and craftspeople to showcase the exception products and heritage of the Ladakhi people and their land. This enterprise is Ladakh Basket and our guests are two of its co-founders, Stanzin Jorden and Thinles Norboo. The third co-founder of Ladakh Basket is Sonam Stanzin.

Ladakh Basket was the culmination of a successful mentoring partnership that Jorden, Thinles and Sonam participated in, with the UNDP Youth Co:Lab initiative which is considered the largest youth social entrepreneurship movement in Asia and the Pacific. Through this initiative, over 8,000 young entrepreneurs have benefited, by developing or improving nearly 1,000 enterprises and startups directly addressing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The Ladakh Basket is on a mission to be sustainable and eco-friendly by promoting reusable and recyclable packaging with a design element representing the culture and heritage of Ladakh.
