My first introduction to the podcast world happened when I was in a bad mental space and looking for things to figure out for my life and career. I came across some podcasts and books and that changed the whole course of my life.
Since then, I have volunteered in many NGOs, started a commerce society in my college, organized the first-ever Commerce Fest in my college, and next year was invited as a guest speaker in the second edition of the commerce fest, so that kind of became a full circle for me.
Parallelly, I started my podcasting journey. I started taking email interviews and I used to ask only five questions. I also wrote 100 blog articles for 100 days to test my dedication to the project. Eventually, over a period of time, my friends helped me in taking the email interview project to a proper podcast.
At that time, I was looking for a podcast producer and editor to help me but being a college student, I didn't had any money to pay. So I started to solve this problem on my own. Started to learn editing and all the technical aspect of podcasting and within 6 months, I got hired to edit and produce podcasts for Health Shots by Hindustan Times. And along the way, I have worked with many individuals and brands to produce and edit their podcasts. And I love the process of podcasting. I love being a podcaster.
And on my podcast - I have interviewed India's No.2 Chess player - Vidit Gujrathi, an International grandmaster of memory - Prateek Yadav, Karan Singh Magic, Shayamal Vallebhjee, Megha Rao, and many entrepreneurs mentioned by Forbes 30 under 30 including - Piyush Ghosh, Abhinav Anahad, Shantanu Anand and so many amazing people.
Podcasts make me excited and I deeply love the process of building them and helping others to build theirs.
