There’s enough cult surrounding the world of Entrepreneurship and that ecstatic role of being able to be your own boss. What doesn’t get the attention it deserves is how much work that goes into the BTS & truly what gets transpired in getting your idea across to the public. We have with us one individual who’s been able to do just that in his previous stint as an entrepreneur out of college!

There's no denying how demanding it is to achieve the CA charter. What's  even more demanding is the sheer amount of hard work it took to achieve  the coveted 2 alphabets prefixing your name with an All India Rank and  that too in the first attempt. Today is one such person who achieved  both of the feats.

Rarely is the case when our guest takes over the ruins that we make and  makes our day by speaking some genius stuff. This episode was one such  case. Swapnil brought with himself this level of humbleness for all the  achievements that he'd carried, as much as we have I'm sure you'd learn  some valuable lessons too. Hope y'all enjoy!

Kick-starting our Season 2 Campaign with Jatinder Singh, the Marquee  Opening Batsman & the Face of Oman Cricket for the ICC T20 World Cup  this year. Despite Oman's unsuccessful campaign, it was history in the  making as it has established itself in the conversation of the main  cricketing circuit. Of which, our guest today has played a massive  massive part in being the face of Oman Cricket for this world cup. Oman prides itself on its fiercest supporters no matter the outcome, I am  sure this has not only inspired a wave of Omani cricketers from now on,  but it has improved the morale of the city altogether after a tough  testing phase due to COVID the previous year. We were truly inspired by the professional demeanor Jatinder had carried with himself off the  field despite such a huge responsibility resting on his shoulders. I am sure you'll enjoy this episode as much as we have, do stay till the end!

The both of us got the rare chance to make someone have an insanely thoughtful conversation about really have gone through so much in a short span of time.
