  • I Left the Uniform, Not the Dream: Life After the Indian Air Force | Priyanka Oswal

    I Left the Uniform, Not the Dream: Life After the Indian Air Force | Priyanka Oswal
    2026/11/11
    What happens to your strength when the uniform comes off? Host Shailja Saraswati sits down with Priyanka Oswal, Indian Air Force veteran, competitive pistol shooter and mentor to women in leadership, to trace how a girl who set out to prove she was no less than any boy learned to lead herself, and then chose a new dream on her own terms. Priyanka was the fourth daughter in a family that had hoped for a son, and the first in her family to join the armed forces. She wanted to fly, missed the flying branch on medicals, and went on to serve ten years, including as a fighter controller. At 23 she was leading people from day one, coming home in tears, and teaching herself to regulate: painting, self-talk, mindfulness, and reading her own moods and energy through the month. Shailja names what she built: her own emotional regulation system, and the wisdom to work with her system instead of pushing it. Then came the moment her role became real, the ownership that followed, a carefully planned exit, a partner who respected her freedom, and a new life chasing competitive pistol shooting. In this episode: "Ladkiyan ladkon se kam nahi": the belief that became her fuel The sisters who fought for an education before her Leading people from day one at 23 Painting, mindfulness and reading your own mood and energy Work with your system, not against it The moment her role became real, and what full ownership looks like Planning an exit with a hard stop, and why leaving was harder than joining How routine carried her through a hard personal year during COVID 100 gratitude emails and the identity question after the uniform What pistol shooting teaches about control, breath and stillness Why your dreams don't have to follow anyone else's timeline What unstoppable means to Priyanka: keep walking "So your values are basically your wings, which are helping in your next flight, one after the other." — Shailja Saraswati 💬 Which dream are you still holding to someone else's timeline?

  • Don't Give Yourself Away: Boundaries, Attention & Inner Freedom | Rajyogi Nikunj Ji

    Don't Give Yourself Away: Boundaries, Attention & Inner Freedom | Rajyogi Nikunj Ji
    2026/11/04
    We're all fighting so hard for freedom in the outside world. But if you can't decide where your attention goes inside, are you really free? Host Shailja Saraswati sits down with Rajyogi Nikunj Ji of the Brahma Kumaris for a conversation about inner freedom: the attention we hand over to our phones, the parts of ourselves we give away in relationships, and what he calls the heaviest shackle of all, the shackle of "I". It begins with a confession. As a child, Rajyogi Nikunj Ji felt that nobody liked him and nobody loved him, and he was desperate for attention. From there, they explore who we are beneath every role, how technology has started consuming us, and why our children's habits start with us. As Shailja puts it: walk the talk. Then the conversation turns to women. Women hear two messages at once: be unstoppable, and be a good mother. So do women really need empowerment, or do they need to remember the power they already have? Shailja shares why she started Unstoppable Woman in 2020, and why so many women still wait for permission from outside when it was always within. His advice for anyone who overgives: don't give yourself away so much that there's nothing of you left. Relationships have to be mutual. In this episode: • The three keys, and why the heaviest shackle is the shackle of "I" • Feeling unloved as a child, and the search for peace • Who are you beneath every role? • Is technology consuming us? • It starts with parents: walk the talk • Be unstoppable, be a good mother: the double message women hear • Do women need empowerment, or permission from within? • Overgiving, boundaries and why relationships must be mutual • What AI means for our attention • Quick bites: the one thing to stop doing on your phone right now "If I am not able to decide where my attention is going inside, so what does that freedom really mean?" — Shailja Saraswati Where does your attention go first every morning?

  • Your Job Is Not Your Worth: How to Rebuild Confidence After a Setback | Arunima Jha

    Your Job Is Not Your Worth: How to Rebuild Confidence After a Setback | Arunima Jha
    2026/10/28
    Your job is not your worth. If one setback at work makes you feel like a bad person, not just a bad day, this conversation is for you. Host Shailja Saraswati sits down with lawyer Arunima Jha to talk about what happens when work becomes your identity, and how to rebuild your confidence, your voice and your self-worth after a setback. Arunima grew up a shy, lost child and was told that people like her should not even think about the college she wanted. She answered with hard work, found her voice in writing and law, and got her first real validation at a national moot court. Later she learned what it costs to treat a workplace like home: the quiet belief that you exist only while you are performing well. Shailja reads the pattern underneath it all. A job is a label, a wrapper, and you are larger than the vessel. In this episode: Why your instincts are data When a bad day starts to feel like a verdict on who you are What burnout really is, and who HR actually works for Your rights at work: getting your contract checked and asking about policies Why women are conditioned to see ambition as unfeminine and asking for money as unspiritual AI, layoffs and why leaders need inner authority under pressure Why your data is your biggest asset Arunima's definition of unstoppable "It's a label. It's a wrapper. It's not really constant. What is constant is you." — Shailja Saraswati Has a job title ever decided how you saw yourself? Tell us in the comments.
