There are very few people with whom you can talk deep shit about life. Be it comparison, spirituality, yoga, meditation, social media, ego, jealousy or anything else, I think we have talked about most things (over a cup of coffee).
When I started this podcast, I always wanted to speak with people with different life approaches than mine. This particular episode is just the starting point for some of the topics we talk about in our offline world.
In this episode, you’ll hear how my first impression of this person was different from what it is now. Does she crave fame? Has she ever compared herself to others, and how is yoga helping to overcome it? & many other things.
This is just the first of the many episodes that I intend to record with this human. If you listen to this, ask her a question in the comments.

PS: We are as clueless as you are, but this was a small attempt to confront this topic and talk about it.
What is Happiness?
It is very hard to formally define happiness, but we know it when we feel it. The feeling of contentment, gratitude, joy and pride. However, in the current environment being happy has been very difficult. Happiness on the other end is the most undervalued feeling which we run after all the pleasures that makes us look good on our gram.
In this episode, we try to decode happiness. However, this is not the ultimate guide to being happy but an attempt towards feeling happy.

What makes us unique?
Stories!
Stories are the only distinctive feature of every human being. Whatever, we aspire we become but we all will have different routes to achieve it. In the very first episode of Brewed Stories, I share my story with Neha.
Neha Upalekar is one in 7,8 Billion people to create content on failure. She is the Chief Purpose Officer at Team Personna and an amazing human at heart.
