The much-awaited episode of Let's Podcast with Arti, featuring Ashreeta Mohanty, is now live! Hosted by Dr. Arti Sharma, this conversation delves into Ashreeta’s remarkable transition from a corporate engineer to a passionate author, offering valuable insights into her creative journey.
Ashreeta wants to be known as someone who embraced change fearlessly. Hailing from Bhubaneswar, Odisha, and currently residing in Gandhidham, Gujarat, she has explored diverse career paths—from customer support to gaming, quality assurance, and now academic event management—before finding her true passion in writing.
Her love for words was always present, but it took a leap of faith to pursue writing fully. Transitioning from a structured corporate routine to an uncertain creative career was her biggest challenge, demanding self-discipline and resilience. Managing life as a wife, former engineering student, and author requires clear priorities. For Ashreeta, balance isn’t about perfection but about making the most of each moment. Her structured approach to time management allows her to stay focused on her writing while handling other responsibilities.
Engineering instilled in her a sense of structure, logic, and problem-solving—qualities that surprisingly enhance her storytelling. Whether it’s crafting compelling narratives or organizing research, both fields demand discipline and creativity. For those considering a creative career, she encourages them to start now. There’s no perfect moment—passion and persistence matter more than timing. Taking that first step is crucial.
Her first magazine project was a turning point, making her realize the impact of her words. Seeing readers connect with her work reinforced her belief in pursuing writing as a career. Like many writers, she has faced imposter syndrome. To overcome it, she focuses on progress over perfection and surrounds herself with supportive people who encourage her journey.
Her corporate experience taught her structure, while writing introduced her to creative fluidity. The blend of these two worlds helps her stay both organized and imaginative—a powerful combination for any writer. She credits her family as her biggest support system. Their encouragement fuels her motivation, and their experiences often inspire her storytelling.
Looking ahead, she envisions expanding her writing career through more books, creative collaborations, and mentoring aspiring writers. With endless possibilities ahead, her journey is just beginning.
