Life, Love, and Startups

A personal diary on everything Life has to offer

Why a Blog now?

Why start a blog? Another blog that could crowd the digital universe? Well, after having built a business in India for almost a decade, and watched many entrepreneurial journey’s up close, and having been privy to intimate conversations and challenges, I wanted to start a diary. Almost think of this as a personal diary, that is open. A space where I could write every week and share structured learning, observations and ideas. Honestly I am being selfish as the commitment to start a blog also ensures that I build discipline to contributing outside my regular work schedule.

I will talk about Life, Work and Love. I think the three coexist for all of us - it does certainly for me. I love what I do, and would want to do everything with love.

My promise is to keep this unfiltered, no names mentioned, and honest.

About me

Just another someone who still thinks my learning is unique and deserves a voice. I have had the good fortune of being in a business of working with startups where no two days are the same. Where we meet passionate, committed, at times almost fool hardy founders, who give up so much to change their life and the lives of people around them.

I live in Bangalore (mostly) while traveling around the country and sometimes beyond the borders. I am sucker for Bollywood, deep conversations, learning and genuine banter. I fall in love easily and I love to hear stories of bravery - it can be the bravery of having had a hard conversation with your boss or your partner, the bravery of having attempted to run when you can almost only fast walk, the bravery of being able to accept your faults easily and be vulnerable. I love to read about fitness and healthy eating, I love the beach and the mountains. I can’t appreciate beauty for the sake of beauty (tall, dark or fair, handsome or beautiful - that’s all god’s gift and nothing to be in love with :))
