January 08, 2025 CANDID CONFESSIONS WITH CHHAVI | How did it all start | Promo
Half of 2024 went into conceptualizing my podcast—deciding what it would be about, what to name it, the type of guests to invite, and most importantly, why people would tune in. After much thought and consideration, I realized I didn’t want my podcast to be just another run-of-the-mill, celebrity-driven interview show.
Instead, Candid Confessions with Chhavi was born from the idea of sharing knowledge and stories from individuals with immense expertise in their fields—regardless of their social media following or mainstream popularity. What matters is whether they bring something valuable to the table for my audience. Do they have a story so inspiring it deserves to be told? Can their experiences positively impact my community’s lives?
This podcast is about adding value and meaning, one candid confession at a time. Many stories are waiting to be shared, and many episodes are yet to air. So stay tuned, dear viewers and listeners, and don’t forget to follow Candid Confessions with Chhavi .
