Most men move through life on a script they never chose to write. Job, routine, expectations, repeat. Madhav Nakar questioned that script and found something worth talking about on the other side of it.

Madhav works full time in cybersecurity, a career built on staying calm under constant threat, but his real curiosity lives in spirituality, fear, and presence. He shares how he faced his fear of visibility by challenging himself to dance in public, why he explores different religious traditions with curiosity instead of certainty, and what he hopes to uncover through his upcoming documentary, Where's God.

Chris and Madhav talk honestly about anxiety, hyper vigilance, and mortality, drawing from Chris's background in close protection work and Madhav's approach to staying solution focused instead of spiraling into worst case thinking. This is a conversation about waking up from autopilot and choosing your direction on purpose.
