このコンテンツについて

I’ve always believed that meaningful conversations have the power to change the way we see the world, and each other.


Born in Calcutta, I grew up surrounded by stories and voices that shaped my earliest understanding of connection. Over the years, that curiosity carried me across India and the U.S ; working with global teams, collaborating with institutions like MIT and Virginia Tech, and supporting Fortune 50 clients including UPS, Microsoft, UnitedHealth Group, Albertsons, Morgan Stanley, all while helping build a learning and design startup from the ground up.


Along the way, I wore many hats; sales leader, account manager, project lead, culture carrier, from setting up our U.S. office in Atlanta to bridging clients and cross-border teams. But no matter the role, the mission was always the same: helping people connect better, deeper, and more meaningfully.


That spirit now lives in Between Us, Make Every Conversation Count™, a podcast that brings together voices from across sectors and walks of life to explore what truly matters: mental health, sustainability, entrepreneurship, healthcare, identity, and hope.


As host and producer, I don’t chase headlines, I hold space.

For stories that go deeper. For moments that stay. For people making sense of the world, together.


Because in the end, it’s not about spotlighting loud voices.

It’s about hearing the ones that often go unheard.


If you care about storytelling, community, and change… welcome.

Let’s make every conversation count

    Beyond Balance Sheets Legacy, Leadership & Listening to Life | In Conversation with Tushar Kansal
    2025/09/05

    What defines true success? How does leadership evolve with experience? And what role do legacy, mentorship, and intuition play in shaping a meaningful life?


    In this episode of Between Us Podcast, host Santosh Kumar sits down with Tushar Kansal to explore the human side of leadership—beyond startups, investments, and valuations. This is a fireside-style conversation about reflection, growth, and the truths that rarely make it into boardrooms or headlines.


    What You’ll Learn in This Episode:


    Legacy Beyond Valuation → What truly compounds over time: relationships, values, and impact.


    Leadership & Mentorship → Why great leaders create successors, not followers.


    Intuition & Pauses → How slowing down and listening can redirect your life.


    The Loneliness of Conviction → Standing firm when your truth isn’t widely accepted.


    Spiritual & Emotional Anchors → Practices that keep leaders grounded in uncertain times.


    Startup Challenges → The unseen realities of building and sustaining companies in India.


    This episode goes beyond balance sheets—it’s about living with conviction, creating legacy, and listening to life.

    The idea of ‘Between Us’ stems from the fact that every conversation matters, especially the one that we have with ourselves. Using podcast as a medium, I am fortunate to bring folks who have made an impact in everyday lives, from diverse backgrounds, to engage in a meaningful conversation. The topics are as diverse and deeply interconnected - from climate justice to big tech to healthcare as a constitutional right to millennial expectations to gender equality and inclusiveness. I warmly welcome you to join me in this journey.
