Trust things to always work out in the end

Reader, I had a very big, pleasant surprise this week. A heavyweight from LinkedIn, Niharikaa Kaur Sodhi DM-ed me to come on my podcast! I reached out to her last year when I relaunched my podcast inviting her to be a guest. She accepted at first, then postponed it because it wasn’t a good time for her. I thought she probably changed her mind after realizing what a nobody I am. This is the kind of negative self-talk that goes on in my mind - it's a daily practice to neutralize it's impact on my actions! When that happened, I was a little bummed out, but I continued publishing podcast episodes anyway. So when she DM-ed me this week saying she was ready to record, I was thrilled! Niharikaa is someone I had been following for a while on LinkedIn, and earlier on Medium. If you’re growing on LinkedIn, you probably already know who she is. Her program, Summit 21, featured LinkedIn heavyweights like Justin Welsh, Tim Denning, Ankur Warikoo and more. If you don’t know who she is, Niharikaa is definitely someone to follow if you want to learn to write and connect authentically with your audience, build your personal brand, or transition to self-employment. We have similar approaches to growing a business - mindfully building and sharing in public. Niharikaa shared some very valuable insights when we spoke, like:
Niharikaa is an inspiration because of her down-to-earth, relatable style. Our conversation reinforces my belief that you need to trust yourself, go through the process, and something magical always comes out on the other side. Just like how this episode came into being!

Reader, It's 9.17pm on Sunday as I'm writing this newsletter that I should have sent by 9am today. And I really didn't feel like doing this when it's almost my bedtime for an early morning start tomorrow at 4.45am. Then I remind myself - this effort is the work that's building my dream. One brick at a time. One email at a time. So here we are! Today's topic is about owning your story. Because your story has value. All the decisions you made, the actions you took, the ups and downs - they all...
Reader, Half of my week has been spent lying in bed, exhausted from what my doctor said was a particularly fierce, mutated flu virus that's been circulating. I hardly ever get sick. Whenever I do, I take it as a sign from the universe to slow down and rest because my default mode is to always be on the go. But it still didn't stop me from recording a podcast episode this week on the topic of showing up consistently! It might be my shortest episode yet (<10 minutes). Having the time to ponder...
Reader, Most people default to living life dictated by their irrational fears: not starting their dream business because of their fear of failure not pursuing their passion because they're unsure it'll make the money they want not going for/staying in the relationship because they don't know what will happen But you'll never fully know until you try. So how do you know when to heed the advice of fear that protects you from harm and what's just in your head? In this week's podcast, I share my...
