I See Green!

I may not be climbing a career ladder right now, but I’m building something else: patience, perspective, and purpose. That’s not nothing. That’s something. If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not alone. Sometimes, all it takes is a date, like 23rd May, to spark a flood of memories and emotions. In my case, it reminded me of how far I’ve come, even when it feels like I’m standing still. To my friends reaching amazing milestones: I’m so proud of you. To those quietly navigating life’s turns, like me: I see you.

Surprise! Let's Get Ready for the Chaos...

The mock drills are more of a mockery of the system. Held only for the sake of having them. High time that these drills are upgraded and held in a more practical way to make the individuals confident enough to save themselves and their families in the hours of crisis.

A Run to Remember - my first 5K!

From M to XL, I didn’t like it. Weight isn’t a problem for me because it makes me look bad; I was never “good-looking.” But it bothers me because many times I feel suffocated and lethargic, which leads to insomnia, bloating, etc. Since last year, I’ve been trying to be regular with walks. There are months when I’m consistent, and then there are months when I don’t step out at all. After February 22, 2025, the 9th of March 2025 will hold a special place in my heart. I participated in a 5K run. Though it was a Fun Run, for someone like me, it was a serious event.

Alimony And Dowry: More Than Just A Simple Yes Or No

The other day, while I was scrolling through my Instagram feed, a reel popped up where a man was asking one question to many women: "Is alimony okay? Why is dowry not okay?" From what I could see, the women he asked these questions to were young and probably unmarried. Even if they were married, these aren't the kind of questions that can be answered with a simple 'yes, alimony is good' or 'no, dowry is bad.'

Breaking Barriers: The Most Influential Women Speakers Of India

Priority Matters!

Yes, several things are going wrong, but everyone can't think about all the wrong things and work to correct them. It all depends on the priority for YOU. What matters the most to you? What is that one thing that you can voice out and work towards correcting?

Mind Your Language: The Impact Of What You Say

We Indians have reached a stage where people are dying because of stress and overworking. Some people are taking therapies, and some are giving sessions on managing work-related stress and striking the work-life balance. Family lives are getting impacted big time. Despite all the dedicated efforts to manage work-related stress, a large number of people are finding it difficult to cope, and several new-age diseases are making way. And there come statements from high-profile figures like Shri Narayan Murthy and SN Subrahmanyan (Chairman of L&T), encouraging people to work longer hours at the workplace rather than at home.

He did not belong to that place

Every time we lose someone unexpectedly, we make silent promises before falling asleep to live life doing what we love and not exhaust ourselves just to make more and more money and properties. We wake up the next day and go through the same, everyday grind. Every time I think about that day when I had one of the longest conversations with my ex-colleague and manager, I get goosebumps. He spoke about his plans, which were more family-oriented and less corporate stress. However, the very next morning, he was no more.
