Corporate VP to Shark Tank India: Arushi Jain on When to QUIT Your Job | Raw Talk Ep 01
In the premiere episode of Raw Talks, We invited Arushi Jain, the Founder of Emori and a featured entrepreneur on Shark Tank India Season 5.
Before building a D2C Lab-Grown Diamond brand, Arushi had a "perfect" corporate career. She managed risk at Goldman Sachs and led Revenue at OYO Vacation Homes as a VP.
So, why did she quit? And more importantly, how did she calculate the risk?
In this honest, unfiltered conversation, we break down:
The "Shark Tank" Reality: What happens inside the tank that the cameras don't show.
The Exit Strategy: How to calculate your financial runway before quitting a stable job.
Lab-Grown vs. Real: Breaking the Indian stigma around "fake" diamonds.
From Employee to Founder: The mindset shift required to survive Day Zero.
If you are a corporate professional dreaming of entrepreneurship but scared of the risk-this is your blueprint.
About Raw Talks: We move beyond the PR headlines to bring you the raw side of building business. Each time we bring in a new guest, we get into their insightful mind and curate a conversation that doesn't sound like an Interview. All about Strategic, human, and tactical side of building a business in India. No fluff. Just real roadmaps.
