The World is Going To Sh*t... Here's How I'm Preparing For It!

About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges of the changing global order and the host's shift away from hustle culture towards personal well-being and family investment.

We are entering an era of massive global realignment. Between geopolitical conflicts, sovereign debt crises, and the AI bubble, the next four to five years are going to be incredibly turbulent. Here is why I am stepping back from the "hustle culture" and changing how I live my life.In this episode of Dil Ki Baat, we dive deep into the uncomfortable reality of the changing global order. Social media often sells a "get rich quick" fantasy, but the macroeconomic indicators—from the Japanese Yen carry trade to US-China tensions—tell a very different story.I discuss why I no longer have the appetite for massive risks, why the global economy is facing a severe reality check, and why now is the time to look inwards, protect your peace, and invest in your family and relationships rather than vanity metrics.
