Saavi's Heart to Heart with IIT B and Stanford Alum Mr. Gaurav Misra
Hey, Seekers! Today's podcast episode is a rollercoaster of emotions that hits close to home. Saavi dives into the intense world of IIT aspirations in Kota, sharing a heartbreaking note left by a young soul who couldn't bear the pressure.
But, hold on! This isn't just a gloomy tale. Saavi's got a stellar guest, the incredible Mr. Gaurav Misra, who's here to break down the myth of life revolving around an IIT degree. Guess what? He's a Kota grad, made it to IIT Bombay, and Stanford- currently residing in the US! He was kind enough to share his pearls of wisdom on his recent India-Kota visit.
Saavi and Gaurav spill the tea on how life isn't just about acing exams and grabbing degrees. They get real about mental health, personal growth, and finding happiness beyond the IIT dream. Gaurav, with his laid-back charm, shares how life threw curveballs at him, and guess what? He hit them out of the park!
It's not a preachy lecture; it's like chatting with your cool older siblings. Saavi and Gaurav share laughs, maybe a tear or two, and spill the beans on what really matters in this crazy journey called life.
This episode is a warm hug for those feeling the weight of expectations. Saavi and Gaurav want you to know - it's okay not to have it all figured out. Life's an adventure, not a checklist.
So, grab your favorite snack, cozy up, and join the fam in this heart-to-heart. Let's navigate life's ups and downs together! #LifeBeyondIIT #SaaviSpeaks #RealTalkPodcast #KotaKaPodcast
