Saumya is one of the finest emotional, mental wellbeing coaches I've met. She was recently picked as BWBusinessWorld 40 under 40.It's an episode of the SBYND podcast that's different. While in the past we've spoken a lot about struggles around money, business and the likes. This episode covers a different area and talks about overcoming the mental and emotional challenges that people face and gives some real world advice and perspective on what can be done about that.A very apt episode for the post pandemic world.

Some would call Aditya quite the risk taker. He grew up in the small town of Meerut and the odds of him running the multiple businesses that scale the globe were slim. He has achieved this through an amazing mindset and further lives his passion for adventure and even scaled Mt. Everest in 2019 after turning 50. Aditya and his companies today that touch thousands of lives in India and around the world and the lessons, insights and advice in this episode are another level altogether. You must hear and watch this one. Amongst my favourite lessons from this episode was the 40-80 rule of giving up and how not to fear scale (even that of the tallest mountain of the world). You can follow Aditya on LinkedIn on https://www.linkedin.com/in/aditya-gu... and you may also buy his amazing coffee table book where he gives the proceeds to the charity Child Relief and You (CRY) here: (As Indian Nationals): http://bit.ly/CRY-TRR (As Foreign Nationals): http://bit.ly/cry-trr This was also the 30th episode of the Smashed Bashed Yet Not Dashed Podcast and we have had amazing guests and stories on this one already.

This conversation with Bani J was one of the most amazing interactions I have ever had. Bani is an actress on the Emmy nominated hit Amazon show &quot;four more shots please&quot; , she also debuted as a gritty contestant on the Hit MTV show Roadies in 2006 and has never looked back since.      On this podcast, Bani talks about her life journey, her love for pets, the importance of fitness and also her future plans.  What stood out the most for me was her deep insights on life and the attitude that she addresses everything with.  Something that everyone irrespective of age and experience would do well to listen to.    Bani in time to come will truly continue to grow and shine. Watch out for her in the months and years ahead.  You can follow Bani on Instagram on   https://www.instagram.com/banij Do also watch or listen to  all the amazing past episodes of the Smashed Bashed Yet Not Dashed Podcast on www.smashedbashedyetnotdashed.com , the videos are on the YouTube channel of the Gaurav Bhagat Academy.  Would love to have your feedback on the podcasts on gaurav@gauravbhagatacademy.com or connect with me on Instagram on https://www.instagram.com/gaurav_gba/ or on Clubhouse also on gaurav_gba Thank you and happy listening.

Nikhil Kamath, the founder of Zerodha is an exceptional entrepreneur. He dropped out of school at the age of 15 and discovered the art of trading in the stock markets.  The passion soon turned to profession and today Nikhil is India&apos;s youngest self made Billionaire.     In this episode I ask Nikhil some interesting questions that he&apos;s probably not been asked in too many of his interviews before.
