About Kundra
Kundra is currently in active discovery and prototyping — and this podcast is part of that journey.
We’re speaking to founders, HR leaders, and working parents to better understand what support looks like when ambition meets parenting.
The companies that will lead tomorrow are building equity into their foundations today.
If you're shaping that future — or want to help us build the tools that support it — we’d love to hear from you.
