There is a particular kind of woman who doesn’t wait for the table to be set. She builds one, pulls up every chair she can find, and makes sure no one eats alone. Meghna Deshraj is that woman.
She will be the first to tell you that nothing about her journey was linear. Born and raised with big ambitions, she eventually made her way to the United States, building a career that wound through the corridors of Honeywell, Bunge, and Unilever before she finally bet on herself. Today, she is the founder of the Bullzeye Group of Companies and the president of Mamabee LLC, the platform behind one of the most talked-about women’s communities online and off: Club Mamabee.
‘I have always been a builder,’ she says, settling into the conversation with the ease of someone who has told parts of this story before, but never quite all of it at once. ‘The difference is that now I am building for women. And that changes everything about why you get up in the morning.’
Club Mamabee, which lives at mamabee.com, is best described as a hive — and not just in the brand sense. The philosophy runs deep. ‘In nature, a bee doesn’t hoard what she finds,’ Meghna explains. ‘She shares it. She dances to tell the whole hive. That is the energy we have built here. One woman’s discovery becomes everyone’s advantage. There is no competition, only collective elevation.’
For women who have spent years in transactional networking spaces, that philosophy lands like a breath of fresh air. The events Club Mamabee hosts are intentional, not just informational. The conversations go deep. The mentorship is real. And the women who find their way into the community tend to stay, not because they have to, but because something inside them finally exhales.
‘I know what it feels like to walk into rooms where you don’t belong,’ Meghna says quietly. ‘I know what it feels like to be figuring it all out without anyone in your corner. I built Club Mamabee because I never wanted another woman to feel that way if I could help it.’
She speaks with the kind of warmth that makes you feel like you have known her for years. But don’t mistake warmth for softness. This is a woman who holds a Six Sigma Black Belt certification, who navigated global corporate finance and IT strategy at some of the world’s largest companies, who launched her own business in 2007, and who has never once let a closed door convince her the room wasn’t worth entering.
She also dedicates significant time to sponsoring scholars and supporting educational programs for girls in India. ‘Education,’ she says simply, ‘is the most powerful thing you can give a woman. Full stop.’
When asked what she wants women to feel when they discover Club Mamabee, she doesn’t hesitate. ‘Seen. Just completely, finally, seen.’
