| World Environment Day 2023 with Mrs Vani Murthy | 05 Jun 2023 | 00:27:47 | |
"Everyday is our environment Day". I'm truly blessed that one of the most inspiring mentors, Mrs Vani Murthy, more famously known as 'Worm Rani' agreed to be on my podcast on this 'World Environment Day'.
Vani Murthy ji has been living a 0 waste lifestyle for decades now. She literally lives and inspires millions of people to live a plastic free and earthly lifestyle. No wonder she has 289000 followers on Instagram. My visit to her home helped me see practically, how she grows her own food, uses the remains to compost it and has a 100% no trash lifestyle.
Each time I speak to her, it gives me great hope that this is the route and the best 'Solution to plastic Pollution'. This year's theme for 'World Environment Day'.
Some of my questions were around what she thinks of the current situation with regards to Plastic pollution. Does she really think there is a solution/ replacement for the numerous number of plastic things we use every single day? Children see, children do! If parents are using plastic unhindered, is there a chance for children to lead a path to plastic free living?
I loved every perspective she shared. Request you to please listen to the full episode too! WEBSITE: https://www.littlemindchats.com/ | |||

| 119: Deepavali special Episode. | 24 Oct 2022 | 00:08:17 | |
Deepavali or Diwali is that one day of the year where the entire world celebrates uniquely, with fireworks, lots of lamps, sweets and new clothes too! This story from our history is a reminder that women in the past were not just beautiful, but filled with the power to be at the forefront of a war too, when needed. Truly inspired by Satyabhama’s valour and Krishna’s nature of accepting the true qualities of Satyabhama. I would like to dedicate this episode to the glory of this festival, spreading the message that Good always wins over evil. Happy Deepavali! WEBSITE: https://www.littlemindchats.com/ | |||

Hi Again! I’ve had the pleasure of picking Dr Guruprasad’s brains again. This time, for my questions on Satellites. He did not disappoint me at all…. This episode is packed with so much to help you understand why we have so many satellites are in space and still don’t really collide… what space debris is and how lots of satellites fall back to earth after their job is done. Its interesting how India has its own version of GPS called Navik. I was truly fascinated to know how tall the PSLV rocket is! Its truly wonderful how satellites are inseparable from our lives now.

| 127: Sustainable Financial Future with Dr. Mara Harvey | 18 Apr 2023 | 00:24:07 | |
While sustainability and finance seem like two very diverse topics, a combination of the two, 'Sustainable Investing' is something I learnt in this very educative podcast episode, Dr. Mara Harvey, has been guiding and educating parents and children towards financial literacy with a focus on sustainability. She has published rhymed book for children on money, equality and sustainability. Dr. Mara has emphasized on the importance of consumer choices and how powerful our choices are, in deciding how consumer companies contribute towards sustainability. Human population is on the rise and we are consuming too many resources from our planet, not allowing enough time to replenish. 'There is no shortage of capital on this planet to achieve Sustainable Development Goals' Her fifth book in the series explains the 17 Sustainable Development Goals to children in rhymes. It has been endorsed and published by the United Nations under the title "START DOING GOOD". Its interesting to learn how uniquely she has developed rhymes so that kids can playfully learn and be aware of UNSDGs, just like their ABCs. Listen to the podcast and get inspired!
