Podcast Episode 2 – Hrehaan’s Career Quest

What happens when discipline, curiosity, and resilience shape a career—long before the destination is clear?

In this episode of Hrehaan’s Career Quest, Ujala Sabharwal, a senior HR professional, people leader, and Mrs India 2018, shares her deeply honest journey - from a strict, disciplined childhood in Jammu to leadership roles in corporate India.

Starting her career as a .NET developer after post-graduation in computer science, Ujala speaks candidly about realizing that coding wasn’t her calling - and why she made the bold switch into Human Resources, driven by her love for people, problem-solving, and purpose.

This conversation touches on: • Growing up in a family of educators and the power of discipline • Dealing with bullying and building resilience early in life

• Internships, first salaries, and real early-career struggles

• Navigating marriage, motherhood, and career responsibility

• How Mrs India happened by chance, not by planning

• Why success is about impact, not glamour

Most importantly, Ujala shares heartfelt advice for students and parents: It’s okay not to have all the answers. Focus on curiosity, learning, kindness—and never compare one child’s journey to another’s.
