   29. Gaurav's Journey: Love and loss

   Hi I'm Krutika and todays conversation is with Gaurav. Losing someone you love is never easy. But when that loss comes suddenly, tragically, and without warning, it can change the course of your life in an instant. The grief can feel overwhelming, and the path forward can seem impossible to find. For Guarav, his father was everything. He was an accomplished doctor, a man of integrity, and the person Guarav admired most. He was a role model, a guide, and a steady presence at the centre of his world. When his father passed away during Covid, that world was turned upside down. Guarav was only in his early twenties. He was an only child, had recently graduated, and was looking ahead to building a life with his now wife. At a time when most people are looking ahead to the future, he was forced to navigate a deep loss that'd shape him forever. What strikes me most about Guarav is not just his resilience, but his perspective. In the years since, he has moved to the UK with his mum and wife, built a successful career, and found a way to carry his father's memory with him without leaving him bitter. As someone who has experienced grief myself, I know it never truly leaves us. It comes in waves. What matters is how we learn to ride them. Listening to Guarav, I am struck by the strength, grace, and self awareness he brings to that journey. Life will always have its highs and lows, its ebbs and flows, but the way we choose to meet those moments often says the most about who we are.

   28. Sanjana's Journey: From toxic workplace to impactful career

   Hi I'm Krutika, and todays conversation is with Sanjana. For most of us, we'll spend a significant portion of our lives in the corporate grind, working the traditional 9-to-5. It's an accepted way of life, and we often ride it out while navigating the inevitable trials and tribulations that come with it. Add today's highly competitive landscape into the mix, and many of us feel compelled to stay in jobs that may not be fulfilling or provide the right environment to grow, learn, and feel valued. That's not the case for Sanjana. As a Gen Z professional, she's recognised early on how to navigate corporate life in a way that works for her, rather than the other way around. After experiencing a toxic work environment in her first job, she launched the Corporate Girl Podcast to fill a gap she herself was searching for: honest, practical, and unfiltered advice on navigating the corporate world. She's also co-authored a book aptly titled Breathe and Go Again, aimed at young job seekers and graduates taking their first steps into the workplace. Sanjana is wise beyond her years, and what stands out most is the resilience she's demonstrating as she builds a successful path in the corporate world and beyond. Chapters: (00:00) Introduction (05:16) Navigating toxic tork environments (11:06) Launching the Corporate Girl Podcast (13:53) The journey of writing a book (23:23) Navigating co-authoring (30:37) The importance of networking (35:09) Personal growth (40:03) Advice for navigating toxic work environments (41:14) Conclusion Connect with Sanjana https://www.instagram.com/corporategirlpodcast/ (https://www.instagram.com/corporategirlpodcast/) Connect with me: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/journeyswithkrutika (https://linktr.ee/journeyswithkrutika) If you have a journey you'd like to share I'd love to hear from you, email me at journeyswithkrutika@gmail.com

   27. Leyton’s Journey: Embracing authenticity

   Hi I'm Krutika, and today's conversation is with Leyton. He's an independent actor, singer, songwriter and entrepreneur - he's chosen to pave his own path in an industry he describes in his own words as fraught with injustice's, manipulative and at times sinister. Now it's not often that I get to meet someone who has such a clearly defined vision and mission for their purpose in this world. He speaks with a level of self-awareness and wisdom that is in part a consequence of personal experiences of racism, bullying and heartaches. Instead of choosing to use these encounters as justification for anger and frustration, he's channelled this is positive ways, choosing love and compassion. In a world where fame and followers are often the metric for success, Leyton is moving against the tide opting for authenticity and sharing messages he's passionate about regardless of popularity.
