It's the kind of conversation that makes you dust off your phone and dial that long-lost friend you swore you'd meet "just soon." So, hit play. Let their reunion reignite your own, one laugh, one poignant memory, one unexpected twist at a time.

TW: Suicide

“I meticulously planned my suicide.”

It is said that when a child grows up, he either embraces his parent's habits or vehemently rejects them, choosing not to incorporate them into his own life. Bodhisatwa Dasgupta, the founding intern, as he calls himself, endured a dysfunctional childhood but emerged as a storyteller with a remarkable gift for writing as he believes that the greatest stories come from the strongest of places.

Voted as India’s hot young creatives and listed in the 30 Under 30 list of Creative People, judged by Impact, life was not always a bed of roses for him. In 2018, his career took a sudden nosedive when he faced false #MeToo allegations, leading to near-universal rejection from other companies. Undeterred by the setbacks, Bodhisatwa's passion for his craft and his unconventional approach to life fueled his unwavering belief in the ever-present silver lining.

Navigating the complexities of life, Bodhisatwa not only faced the challenges of a turbulent first marriage but also shouldered the responsibilities of raising a daughter in a liberal environment that fostered individuality. Through these experiences, he developed a unique perspective on societal norms, challenging conventional beliefs surrounding gender roles, sexuality, relationships, and passion.

"As women, we face a lot of prejudice and bias."

In a country like India, where every financial and familial decision is made with painstaking care, venturing into the uncharted territory of the new seems like an act of sheer audacity. And when two young women dare to defy convention and embark on a voyage of self-discovery, their resilience is put to the ultimate test amidst a society that finds solace in the familiar.

Yashita Agarwal, creative director and founder of Studio Six, brings forth the stories of brands through eclectic designs, and Megha Verma, founder at Growth Iris, a digital marketing agency, has worked with several leading government and private organizations like Citi-Bank and Niti Ayog, are both shackling the societal expectations with their resolve fortified by an unwavering belief in their own potential during their early twenties.

In this episode, as they unapologetically share their personal stories of how they fearlessly traversed the uncharted territories of personal growth and unearthed hidden reserves of strength and resilience, even as they faced reluctance from their family, they continue to alter the perception of themselves and the world around them.

This conversation stands as yet another testament to the indomitable human spirit, and self-belief. It is a poignant reminder that even when the doors of opportunity seem tightly shut, the unwavering flame of personal strength can illuminate the path to self-discovery and fulfilment.
