Smriti Irani, the Union Minister for Women and Child Development in one of the Rajya Sabha sessions said that menstruation is a natural part of a woman's life and should not be considered a handicap hence specific policies for granting paid leave may not be necessary.This sparked a big discussion. Supporters, including Kangana Ranaut, agreed, suggesting such leave might not be essential. Conversely, critics like K. Kavitha from BRS condemned the remarks as ignorant. In this episode of Workwise, we covered this discussion with Kalpana Sachdeva and Souniya Khurana. Kalpana is the Regional HR Director for Asia at Unique Logistics International and Souniya is the Co-founder & CEO of an award-winning new-age media and creative content company WYN Studio.

Congratulations, you got the job!Excited? Relieved? Proud? But how much do you really know aboutthis new job?

BIO: Souniya Khurana is the Co-Founder and CEO of the podcast company and a new-age media venture WYN (Wine) Studio.STORY: When Souniya was in grade six, she failed math. Everyone kept pushing her to focus on this failure instead of her strengths. This made her create a narrative that she wasn't good enough.LEARNING: Own your narrative. Don't let anybody else decide who you are or your narrative. You can change your narrative. “Please don't invest in things that you're bad at.”Souniya Khurana Guest profileSouniya Khurana is the Co-Founder and CEO of the most creative & sought-after branded podcast company and a new-age media venture WYN (Wine) Studio.While Souniya's career spans more than a decade across developing businesses and strategic roles and a failed startup before navigating her way successfully through her second entrepreneurial stint, WYN Studio, what has conspired to her success is owning her story and seeing through the many failures in her life as important milestones.TGIF, she often says! Often? Why? Because for her, it means, “Thank God I Failed!”Worst investment everSouniya was horrible at mathematics, and her family always told her that this was her weakness and that she should invest in it more to get better at it. Souniya really tried to get better at mathematics, and she did but at the expense of what she was really good at. Nobody ever amplified or helped Souniya look at her strength—English. She loved stories and the world of narratives. But nobody helped her realize that this was where she needed to invest more. She felt like she was not good enough for her entire school life.When Souniya failed math in sixth grade, she contemplated suicide because she felt her life was not worth it. Instead of looking at it as an event in her life, she ended up looking at it as who she was—a failure. She used that as a tag up until her first venture in 2016.No matter what happened before 2016, whether it was getting the best placement in college, good grades in university, or a good job, Souniya always felt that those things were happening by default. She didn't believe she made them happen. She always thought she wasn't good enough because people always pushed her to focus on her weaknesses.It was only after 2016, when Souniya met the right mentors, that she realized that the fact was that she was not good at math, but that didn't mean that she wasn't good enough.Lessons learnedOwn your narrative. People will tell you many things but step out of your situation, take a helicopter view, and create your own story.Take the emotion out of situations that drain you and look at them more rationally and clearly.Invest in your strengths.Always remember that it's you who's in the arena and the only one who knows what's going on. So don't let anybody belittle you or decide who you are or what's your narrative.Andrew's takeawaysStep outside of your situation and imagine that you're up on the ceiling looking down, and then use that as a tool to observe yourself.You can change your narrative.Actionable adviceIf you're on the verge of making important decisions—whether it's choosing the right education, right university, or career—first recognize your strengths. Think about those times when you felt you were in the absolute flow, when you loved doing what you were doing and were so engrossed and involved in that activity. Figure out what that thing...

They are getting YouTubers to do the shows. Podcasting has really grown during the pandemic because a lot of people got into it as a listener. A lot of them got into it as a creator. So I must say it's been a great year for podcasting here in India. Storytelling is a really great genre. That's working really well. And as I said, devotional and spiritual content that's doing really well as well. And personal transformation is another thing that works really well in India. But now the next growth that's going to come on the podcasting, that's going to be from the reasonable languages, local languages, where, you know, from the smallest cities, because these are, this is where people are gonna relate to the content much better when, you get to hear the content in your mother tongue, then that's when you relate to the content much better. I don't remember the exact number, but I think it was more than 10 languages that Tik-Tok was available in India and that the way it has grown and exploded in India, I think the largest number of people using Tik-Tok was in India. With the tools like Anchor coming in and making it easier for a lot of people to create podcasts and even Indian podcasting apps that are trying really hard to get more and more creators on board to come and share their stories, share their poems and literature. I think they must be one of the highest spenders when it comes to creating new shows that are commissioning a lot of shows almost every week. Brands are paying attention because when everybody's talking about the podcast, then brands obviously want to be where, audience's attention is, right? We are helping brands to share their message with the world, helping them share their vision, mission maybe where what's happening and building thought leadership is something that's going to really push a lot of brands. And I think a lot of Bollywood celebrities and stuff like that, people with a massive fan following and that's what Spotify is trying to do, tapping into these people and trying them to create an exclusive show on their platform so that they can get these people on the, on Spotify to consume the podcast and then maybe, discover other shows as well.

In a world filled with pretenders and opportunists, Cobain was the real thing, a unique and invaluable voice that stayed in the heads of lonely people everywhere. Friends or loved ones come and go, but he is THAT friend that stayed who screams in my head and also tells me “I am not alone”. Kurt Cobain died 27 years ago at the age of 27. (A friend of mine, Dr Philip Merry told me to find synchronicity in the numbers: I was born on 17 July 1977). His death on April 5 1994 was one of the most influential and groundbreaking events of the 90s. It took place during a time when grunge rock music was at its prime. Their music videos were super-intense (Heart-Shaped Box still scares me and fascinates me) and MTV brought the world together when the Smells Like Teen Spirit video premiered. My mom and dad, my two sis, and my next door neighbours absolutely hated it when I turned up the volume during Dive, Breed, Scoff, School, Endless Nameless, Scentless Apprentice, Radio-Friendly Unit Shifter, and even the hits like Lithium, Come As You Are and Smells Like Teen Spirit. Our generation loved Kurt Cobain and his music because it was so different and wasn’t staged - it was authenticity and comes from a place of pain. We have started to feel the effects of anxiety and angst and understood what they were - so to have Kurt Cobain literally screaming into a mic about how f*cked up his head is made people feel good - it was validation for Gen X-ers which our parents didn’t understand. The generations after us ie. Millennials and Gen Z experienced hand-me down stuff (and we’ll feature each generation covering Kurt Cobain songs during the #NirvanaTributeVirtualFestival) but this podcast episode recorded two weeks prior to the batch-taping event on our PodFest Asia - Live In Clubhouse session serving as a precursor, proved that Kurt Cobain was so ahead of his time and spoke to not just my generation but also all the generations that came after. It features spontaneous conversations with fellow podcasters, educators, new bandmates, spanning across generations and geographies and cathartic moments when audiences raised their hands to come on stage to provide their own impromptu rendition of “Come As You Are” and “Where Did You Sleep Last Night”. Decades in the making, April's Nirvana Tribute Virtual Festival literally took me a lifetime’s journey to learn how to do podcasting, curate an online festival, masking taping gear tech and apps, develop communicative and interviewing skills, establish network and build community in order to be able to make a serious stab at this and do my heroes Nirvana and friend Kurt Cobain justice. The Festival is more than simply remembering him and his music, it opens up the conversation on how his suicide made each generation feel. Like many in the pre-internet days, I found out about his suicide from the newsstands after basketball practice in school and kept the newspaper clippings thinking even back then, his suicide was as important and game changing as Nirvana’s Nevermind was in resetting music entirely. I still remember on that fateful day thinking that it sucks, even though it wasn’t a breakdown for me personally cos I was still a pre-teen and it was the first time in my life I heard of suicide and for days after, I was bummed out and confused about why would anyone kill himself? My only experience of death at that time was only my grandparents. That gun shot blew up his brains but opened up the conversation about suicide and mental health. His work is art. All his lyrics are existential, about pain, but like poetry, which is what you will mostly find on social media and some of my favourite podcast shows in 2021 today. Three decades in, after working through the ups and downs of life, career dissatisfactions, rough relationships that didn’t end well, more deaths in the family, tragedies piling up, feeling lost, pressures of finding myself, the struggles and journey to discover my own “stake the flag on the ground moment in the universe” before a brush with cancer and podcasting completely changed my life around. And gave me clarity. I can understand times better than before when someone goes through the mindset of Kurt Cobain when they realise the situation and the pain they are in meant suicide is the only way out; whether their end could also be representative of the rest of us still drawing breath, feeling not being able to eventually make it and why it is traumatising for us who are still here. In 2021, I fully understood why fans were bawling their eyes out when Kurt Cobain died in 1994. I bawled my eyes out when Chris Cornell hung himself in 2017. Next to Kurt Cobain, the suicide that bothers me a lot was Chris Cornell. When you tie to life experiences or what you are going through that you have, it makes it harder. Chris Cornell scared the f*ck out of me - the guy has a lovely wife and beautiful kids, perfect marriage, sober and healthy (allegedly), was always up and up, and to do that, you are always on, with a facade, a mask and personality to yourself. For me, to watch him take a further step (which I contemplated at certain points in my life) when he did that, I feel like maybe I cannot do it too. Cos he didn’t make it. You could see his struggles from his art and performances. Heck, like Cobain, you could see he wrote about killing himself in Soundgarden songs “Like Suicide”, “The Day I Tried To Live” the same way Kurt expressed himself about “I Hate Myself & I Want To Die” in all those grunge albums. We are all on the same road - If you make a list of disorders, whoever you talk to any given day, you can check every one of those boxes multiple times. When people are suffering alone: I have been there, I am there, it is very difficult. Pain makes you see light and create better art and music or in the case of comedians like Robin Williams, better jokes or for podcasters, better shows that are cathartic which cracked your hearts open. However sad that may be. When I was in a dark place, I make more podcasts. I am fine when I talk to people and I feel good. It’s all good and that sh*t is gone. It allows me to work through depression which is kinda beautiful vs going through a depression. It is like a challenge that gives you more confidence and a security blanket to myself that if I can handle this, nothing is gonna rattle me. Humour and not taking things and myself seriously is also a great defence mechanism. I couldn’t be the success or make more podcast shows if I gave up. Humans need our very own bio-survivability tickets too in order to keep ourself on this planet. P.S. This podcast also spotlight bands, artists and fans across Asia and beyond, I will be fulfilling my personal (as well as our audience) curiosity about: What was that like when Kurt died? What were you going through when you found out? Which suicide hurts more: Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Chris Bennington, Scott Weiland or Chris Cornell? What was the reason for stepping over the ledge?And many more questions spotlighting the artists and their work.
