    Smita Tharoor- Why making your biases conscious should be a priority

    Smita Tharoor- Why making your biases conscious should be a priority

    In this episode, I speak with Smita Tharoor about unconscious bias. We talk about our "backpacks" and how biases affect our thoughts and decisions both in professional as well as personal life. If you want to know more about how to identify your biases and make them conscious or even if you are just interested in how culture affects our thought processes and perceptions, this episode is definitely worth a listen.

    Smita Tharoor is a thought leader on unconscious bias. She is the author of "Stories of Unconscious Bias", a podcast where she talks with people from all across the globe on their experiences with unconscious bias. She is a TedX Speaker, coach and mentor and also the founder of Tharoor Associates as well as co-founder of Culturelytics, a global data analytics firm which focusses on organisational culture and financial impact. She is also an associate lecturer at University of Arts,London.

    How sometimes the best way to look forward in life is to look up- Dhara Patel

    In this episode, I speak with Dhara Patel about all things astronomy. Besides speaking about Black Holes, Dark Energy, Space Exploration and a host of other facts, we also chat about how she became an astronomer, her work at the Royal Observatory and discuss career paths if you want to get into the field. If you want to know when you can see the next supernova, or why NASA chose the name Juno for it’s probe to Jupiter or just interested in a bunch of interesting facts about the universe, this episode is definitely worth a listen.

    Dhara Patel is an astronomer at the Royal Observatory Greenwich. She is a science educator, and has appeared on TV, radio and press like BBC and Channel 5, talking about astronomy. She has presented at many science festivals and is also involved in publications created by the museum. Dhara also writes for blogs and online newspapers.

    Dhara is the co-host of the Look Up! Podcast at the Royal Observatory Greenwich. Every month, she talks about astronomical news, the latest developments in the fields as well as what to look out for in the night sky.

    How starting and running an NGO can give your life purpose- Mini Vasudevan

    Mini Vasudevan is an Indian animal rights activist based in Coimbatore. She founded Humane Animal Society (HAS) in 2006, and currently runs the organisation. She was awarded the Nari Shakti Puraskar in 2019, the highest civilian honour for women in India.

    In the premiere episode of Intermittent Brain Fasting, I speak to Mini about her upbringing, how her love for animals has shaped not only her life but the lives of others around her and why sterilisation, Animal Birth Control (ABC), Anti-Rabies Drives (ARV) are crucial to a society. I also get her opinions on the joys, challenges and roadblocks of setting up and running an effective NGO in a country like India, veganism, feminism and what you can do to help the creatures who don’t have a voice in your community.
