The most selfish and unreasonable request I’ve ever made to a boss was to ask for a loan after working only 6 months with him. Get this: to leave the company. And not just any loan. It was worth many years of my salary!

Step into the intriguing journey of Suchitra, and entrepreneur, former Oil & Gas leader, and chief visionary behind INSIDE & OUT. In this episode, you'll unravel:

✔️How to respect and channel your anger for self-assertion and advocacy

✔️3 mental fitness techniques designed to foster intentional self-time and safeguard against burnout

✔️Why constant restlessness and the pervasive 'hustle culture' can backfire
