Kanika Chadda Gupta

I am a CNN television anchor turned entrepreneur and podcaster. I was thrown into the deep end of motherhood when I had my three kids [twins + 1] within eighteen months. It was sink or swim. So, I did what anyone would do. I doggy paddled my way to the surface! I’m hardwired to ask tough questions and I found myself seeking answers about life as a parent from everyone I knew – TED speakers, neighbors, Amazon reps. I knew other parents were in the same boat. With no time to read mountains of self-help books, I was yearning for tools to simplify daily life, as well as an outlet to feel part of a conversation and community. Just like that, my podcast That’s Total Mom Sense was born!

My guests and I focus on problem solving and the big picture. What is our legacy? What values do we want to impart to the next generation? For as parents, we’re tasked with the biggest responsibility and privilege on the planet. We are raising the changemakers and innovators of tomorrow! Grab your earbuds + chai and get ready to be enlightened, engaged and entertained. Enjoy the show!
