Are you sleeping with the enemy: Breast cancer survivor Shormista Mukherjee on #foodocracyforher

Radio Finely Chopped by Kalyan Karmakar

#foodocracyforher is where I speak to women doing amazing work in the world of food. My next guest, Shormistha Mukherjee, is not in the food business. Yet. Not directly at least. Though as the co-owner of the digital agency Flying Cursor, this former legacy advertising professional has worked with clients in the food space and with creators too. She is an enthusiastic patron of home chefs and was part of the jury of the Home Cheffies 2021, India's first Home Chef Power Brand Awards. She is a former colleague of my wife and one of the earliest friends that I made through blogging and now a friend of the entire family. Her cat Tugga is big brother to our Baby Loaf and little Nimki. This interview is about none of that. A few years back, Shormistha was diagnosed as having breast cancer. She battled it and then wrote a book. 'Cancer, you picked the wrong girl.' Her mission, to alert women to the need to check for breast cancer. A stitch in time saves nine, as the adage goes. And it's never 'too early' to check, she adds. A big supporter of #foodocracyforher, Shormistha most kindly came here to spread this important message on #worldcancerday. We do hope you watch it and share it...and...once you do, you will realise that the message goes out as much to women as us men. #FoodocracyForHer by Kalyan Karmakar is India's longest running podcast featuring women entrepreneurs in the food and beverage business.
