Train your mind for mental toughness | Aarti Shastry on Mentor Me Macha
I absolutely love people who can make you feel at home within the first few minutes of meeting. And that's the kind of vibe I had with Aarti. If I have to describe Aarti Shastry in one word, I can't! A single word cannot do any justice to this mixed platter of a person. But here's how I would describe her. She's a truly incredible soul, an Improv actor, Biker, Sustainability warrior, avocado lover, a fellow dabbler and my spirit animal and you are really in for a treat with this episode.

Focus On Getting Better And Success Will Follow | Band Capricio on Mentor Me Macha!
Who can relate to this? Growing up, whenever I was asked who my favorite band was or what genre of music I liked, I always felt uncomfortable and felt a sense of shame for only listening to regional music. I never grew up listening to The Beatles, Kurt Cobain or even Michael Jackson. I grew up listening to gazals, melodies of Kisore Da and SPB and keerthanas that my mom sang every morning!
When I first heard Band Capricio perform, I was transported back to my childhood! Especially to one very vivid memory of my mom, my siblings and our dogs sitting on the rooftop under the stars and singing to our heart's content! That is the kind of magic they create with their music.
Band Capricio is India's first Retro Regional Cover Band that started in 2016 of November. On this episode of Mentor Me Macha watch them uncover the story behind becoming the most loved band in the city. Come listen to Shravan, Eknath and Tej's story, everything from their goals and passion to their favorite cuss words!

Spinning Epic Tales with Siddharth Naidu!
Do you remember your parents/grandparents narrating Ramayana and Mahabharata as a kid? I vividly remember my experience. My dad was very into Mythology and would narrate these tales to me as bedtime stories, and he would always end the stories in creative ways like, 'Well Ram is walking through the forest now, it will take him sometime so lets continue tomorrow'. I'm not sure if it's this curiosity about Indian Mythology that got me excited to talk to Siddharth Naidu who just happened to write a unique article about his take on Lord Ganesh's origin story!
Siddharth Naidu is the CEO of an up-and-coming Media House called Voxspace, but more importantly he is an amazing writer and a storyteller.
So naturally I was excited to talk to him about story trends in current age cinema and also his take on Indian Mythology. I'm very excited for you guys to listen to this episode!

Self-Love Simplified?! with Harsha Maheshwari!
I know what you all are thinking. We are talking about Self-Love Again?! I just thought it was interesting how Self-Love happened to be the over-arching theme and something that is mentioned by multiple guests on my podcast! So it made sense for me to dedicate a whole episode to self love so we can finally get over the vagueness surrounding this 'skill'. Yes it is apparently a skill, which means, its learnable.
In this episode, I talk to Harsha Maheshwari, a dancer who made her own mark in the country with not just her dance, but also her way of life! She started a movement called #HealNotHate through which she advocates body positivity and talks about how she developed the skill of loving herself over the past 2 years, her experience with it and how everyone CAN and MUST practice Self-Love!
