Building a D2C Brand That Solves Real Pain | TheYoungTurksDialogues | Episode 84

Welcome to The Young Turks Dialogues where we decode the future of marketing, branding and entrepreneurship.

🎙️ In Episode 84, we sit down with Roni Mondal, founder of Matri, a D2C brand built around solving menstrual pain one of India’s most unspoken challenges.

From pitching on Shark Tank to navigating taboos, Roni shares what it truly takes to build a pain-first brand in a market that often ignores women’s health.

✅ Why Matri started with solving pain, not pushing product

✅ One assumption about Indian female consumers that proved completely wrong

✅ How to build a D2C brand with just ₹1 lakh (real talk, no fluff)

✅ Mistakes D2C founders make beyond just CAC

✅ Why “empowerment” in branding needs purpose, not just PR

✅ The cultural resistance Roni faced while building Matri

✅ A powerful message to his future daughter about why he started it all

This episode is for:

✔️ D2C founders

✔️ Marketers working in taboo or underserved spaces

✔️ Health & wellness entrepreneurs

✔️ Anyone who believes businesses can solve real problems
