Hi, Welcome!

Hi, I am Khyati Jain. I am a final year undergrad at BITS Pilani, trying to build a meaningful career.

I invite you to join me as I try to understand the world from the eyes of the exceptional. As I interact with people who stepped outside the norm or those who scaled stellar heights and gain insights into their dilemmas and decisions. We all want to be good at what we do, want to do something different, something meaningful and fulfilling in our lives, so let’s learn from those who have! I invite you to be a part of my journey as I explore avenues, and maybe you can find your calling and discover the motivation and path to get there!

Who is this podcast for?

This is for engineers looking beyond. This is for everyone looking to start their career, change their career, or just give it a new direction. Those who wish to understand how to go about making career choices, or just wish to gain perspective on their fields of interest. If you’re just trying to figure out your interests, this could be something for you!

Why am I doing this?

I am just trying to figure out my calling, and build myself. Along the way, helping out others is the cherry on the cake!
