  • Ep.73: Where you are right now, doesn't define where you'll be with Monyputhy Ly (Johnny)

    In this episode of the Whatever Matters podcast with Rayn, Narayanan is joined by Monyputhy Ly (Johnny). Johnny, a good friend of mine, is a top Educational Podcaster from Cambodia. Growing up, nothing stressed Monyputhy other than trying to live up to the name imprinted to him, "Puthy", which in Khmer language of Cambodia means knowledge. It was only later in his youth he realized education is so much bigger than degrees offered by formal educational institutes. Tune in for all this and more.

  • Ep.68: Have courage to be ‘just okay’

    In today's daily munchy, I am talking about courage and how you need to be okay with where you are right now. 

    “Daily Munchy on the Chalkmeout Podcast” (aka “Morning Munchies”) is a thrice-a-week podcast that aims at rekindling some of our hardcoded values, thoughts, rituals and habits. There's so much that goes on in our life within 24 hours of being who we are and being who others want us to be that sometimes we forget who we want to be. The job Narayanan wishes to accomplish here is straightforward, what would it take for us to function as a unit individually, tapping into our deepest fears, our mundane routines and thoughts that we barely take action on? This is not a motivational podcast. This is about exploring possibilities and never settling with what life throws at us. #chalkmeoutwithrayn
