About this listen

 Often we share what brings us joy. We talk about our wins and our highs. We glory in awards and titles and we look into the mirror every morning and wonder, why you look the way you do? Why are you feeling so sad/ lonely/ alone? What is your identity? Why can you not be "NORMAL"? So many, many whys ... and so often, we have no answers to them! I am Cdr Bimal Raj (retd.), ex-Indian Navy, Trained Coach, and father to a teenager, and this is my Podcast where I share my thoughts on topics that are considered taboo...from gender identity to menstruation, we discuss it all in an inclusive manner.Cdr Bimal Raj (Retd) Personal Development Personal Success
