At BlueBegum we share stories and perspectives that may not be unique, but on closer look reveal a depth of understanding, intuition and courage we could all learn from. Do listen in to lend wings to your brilliance.

Work from Home (WFH) or Work from Office (WFO) ? BlueBegum takes a breezy look at what people on both sides of the fence have to say.  The world is exploring new ways of working that are hybrid - trying to strike a balance between the comforts of WFA and maintaining optimum performance levels. What's your take? And is there a creative solution that can work for both sides? It's time for this conversation. 
We view the world through our own unique lens. These lenses are shaped by our past experiences, beliefs and more. Many a time they lead to biases which are unnecessary and do more harm than good. So how do we dissociate what we see, from the meanings we assign to them. Listen to BlueBegum as we explore this world of subjectivity and how we can choose happiness and well being over thoughts that pull us down. 
You're leading a fairly comfortable life with enough savings to get by. Even through the challenges of a global pandemic you've managed to stay stable. Yet when you see people challenging the status quo and squeezing life for more joy, you begin to wonder whether you're not being too benign with yourself. If you feel this way, then BlueBegum gives you reason to shake off your stupor and up the ante with some lessons from Netflix and that colourful but oh-so-impressive showman, Sir Richard Branson.  Go on. Have a listen!

We are all interconnected. What's happening in New York impacts people in New Delhi and what happens in Canada could well be impacting someone's life in Australia.

Why should we be grateful when so much seems to going wrong? And why is appreciating others a key to our happiness.  Listen to this and more on this episode of BlueBegum. 
Words once out can only be forgiven not forgotten. That's a powerful truth and that's why it's so important to mind what we speak. Especially if you are looking to nurture relationships that are meaningful. BlueBegum tries to see words from different perspectives with tips on how we can be more mindful of them.
