Now, we wait for the books to arrive, initially in my hands, and then yours. With some delays in supply chains (no surprise there I guess!) the paperback should be in […]

Book Journey Update: Book Cover Reveal

Greetings! They say “Do not judge a book by its cover“. However, the reality is that most of us do just that.

Making a Molehill out of a Mountain

Making a Molehill out of a Mountain Chances are that at some point in our lives, we have taken a trivial challenge and perceived it to be bigger than it is, a behavior more commonly known as making “a mountain out of a molehill”.

Let’s explore this further.  Of course when we are talking trivial challenges those are easy to tackle. Even when the challenge seems insurmountable at first, I have found that there is always

Book Journey Update: Podcasts & Talks

Greetings! Things have been much of a roller coaster for me over the last 4 weeks and hence the long silence. My sincere apologies. I had to go to India for over 2 weeks to participate in family rituals after the passing of both my parents over the last 9 months.  My mom passed away unexpectedly in March 2021 and was followed by my Dad in Jan 2022. They were inseparable in life as they were in death. Sadly, I could not visit during either of their passing due to the raging COVID epidemic in India in March 2021 and
