The Values Workshop

There are many aspects which make any life rich. Rarely do we see the kaleidoscope for what it is, fascinated as we are by compartments. In this free-flowing chat, however, I and Sushma, a friend, talk about work, social service, seeking time for oneself, parenting, connecting with people, experiences and a whole lot more. It is a genuinely light,

A rare chance to speak with a person who has dedicated his life to the seeking even though he is not a monk. Getting off the beaten track, he has pursued his journey in meditation and seeking the truth for himself, for many years now. I choose to interact with him, and understand his

'What is Love?' is perhaps the most difficult question to answer. Here I speak to Hemant Gupta who sportingly dives with me into the unknown, and explores the vastness of this tremendously important emotion. We dissect it with love, allowing duality, oneness, practicality, exposure to this word in professional life and many other ways. A Valentine Day conversation which goes much beyond the traditional understanding of Love, for sure. Like it or hate it, you won't be able to ignore the facets of love being covered here. Come, celebrate this chat. For the video, check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

In a world which is being enamoured and fascinated by Artificial

It is rare to come across someone who is so clear about her goals, and yet admits nonchalantly that she got it wrong some times. Without batting an eyelid, our guest, Khyati Bhatt, CEO of a one-of-its-kind company,  @SimplyBodyTalk, talks to us about being an expert in a different career choice, even while taking us through her journey of ups and downs till she found her passion. She is also kind enough to reveal her personal fears and her adherence to ethics in her line of work. It is a quick, clear, precise world-view she brings to the chat. I had a lot of fun conversing with this expert on non verbal communication. Check it out. For the video, check www.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

We talk about job responsibilities, being good at one's profession but not making it the most important part of our job. Our guest wisely covers a lot of ground by speaking about daily happenings, his ability to be balanced in all conditions, working diligently to understand his mind state - basically using the activities which are part of everyday to be in accordance with what one wishes to be. In his case, contentment is really a great example - and he narrates how he uses it to balance his need and greed. A worthy episode, this.

It is not always that we have more silence than words spoken by a guest. But this one couldn't have been more perfect. It is an ideal kind of conversation when the subject discusses emotions with a stable mind, yet expressing herself reluctantly. I am sure this will give a lot of strength to many who are shy, unsure, doubtful, fearful or simply hesitant to express themselves. I surely hope you show a lot of love and support to this genuinely vulnerable kind of chat. Have a look. For the video, check ww.youtube.com/c/thevaluesworkshop

What an unimaginable chat this is. The guest's varied experiences with failure and success, competition and self-love, study and determination, allow us to look at her journey with fascination. It is not everyday we have a topper who says, it is not important to be on top. Once we begin to delve beneath the surface of her experiences, we find out the gravity of her learning and that the view-point she has formed of the process and her goal, is hard-won. An amazing conversation, perfect for the new generation, as it covers many relevant topics, good for the parents to know how and what are the concerns for this generation, as well as teachers to understand the complexity which makes individuals, and hence, perhaps not bracket them into easy classifications of good and bad.

A detailed chat with Dr Rajvi Mehta, one of the nation's more

Rarely do you come across a human being whose life experience isn't rich. But this particular guest continues to evolve, speak his mind and check his own beliefs against life's daily interactions and in the process, gets to enrich most of his moments fully. We talk learning, knowledge, the fallacy of thinking 'we know it all', growing from failure, changing course as we understand the path better, and so much more in this brief chat. Hasmukh Sapnawala is an excellent conversationalist and speaks his heart with almost no filters at all. What a joy this chat is! Do check it out.
