Engineers and corporate folks who studied engineering never really were in the school of cool (including myself) so I thought I'd talk about things I did over the years, from 21 to 35 to build my confidence in this lovely world.

Having been a fan of cycling since the pandemic began, a fan of outdoor activities and an expert of ten years of Bangalore Traffic, I decided to chat with the folks at @BengaluruMoving to hear from a few ladies about their transport journey in the city. Remember, sometimes the journey is as important as the destination. And how you travel can be as important as where you travel to...

Great podcast series. I like listening to this as it gives some perspective on various things while being a easy and fun listen.
This is a good one! Haha for the Toastmasters bit. But don't you think it's weird that people with work that's not so bad (such as in IT) complain more than,say, the bankers or the accountants? Maybe it's got more to do with the mental stimulus and work satisfaction that the latter offers?
