    Bonus episode 3: Getting Meta with Simblified!
    Oct 1 2021
    I appeared as a guest on my own show, Simblified! I chat with my pals Naren, Srikeit and Tony about Getting Meta. How it came about, what my learnings were and our own takes on productivity. It was a deeply personal chat with the gang I usually joke around with and I hope you enjoy it!

    Ask Meta!

    Have a question for me? Something related to careers or productivity or mental models I could help answer? This is a new segment I'm going to try out in a couple of weeks. Mail me any question at all you have (don't worry about how you structure it, we can figure that out). Mail me at chuck@chuckofalltrades.in. I look forward to hearing from you!

    Bonus episode 2: Chuck's interview with Ashdin Doctor (Part 2)
    Sep 24 2021
    I appeared on Ashdin Doctor's excellent podcast, The Habit Coach to talk about Getting Meta and why I decided to start it, along with a few learnings from there. We did two episodes and I'm sharing them both here (cross-promo!). The interviews first aired on The Habit Coach in August 2021. This is the second of a two-part series, and the first part was out last week.

    If you enjoyed the interviews on Getting Meta till now, I'm sure you'll enjoy these, and you should also check out The Habit Coach as it's an excellent podcast about habits and improving one's life in meaningful ways. It was an honour for me to be on the show!

  • Srini Swaminathan : Social Development Consultant

    Srini Swaminathan : Social Development Consultant
    Sep 10 2021
    In the season finale of Getting Meta 2021, I am absolutely thrilled to have Srini Swaminathan as a guest. Srini is extremely active in the social service space - having organised several fundraisers, Covid reliefs, was on-ground for the farmer protests, was a part of Teach for India, and so so much more. But even if you exclude that, there is so much to talk to him about - he’s an active marathoner, he’s cycled from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, and Kutch to Guwahati. He is also just an incredible guy. Eternally optimistic, lots of stories… He started life in poverty but he’s led a very rich life. He’s recently written a book on sustainability as well, which happily, coincides with the release of this episode. In this interview, we speak about:His childhood and how that shaped himAsking why - and how that has driven everything that he’s doneHis motto for social service - Show up consistently, serve, share genuinely.How he himself changed: From a sheltered life in poverty, to a dauntingly huge college, to oil fields in Venezuela, leaving a lucrative job to become a teacher, to endurance sport.Learning from bad experiences.Starting with an expiry date in mind & planning for worst case scenarioNear death experiences - four of them (!) and what he learnt from thatHow he went from having asthma to finishing 28 full marathonsAnd finally… Staying positive Everything Srini:Twitter: https://twitter.com/srini091Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/srini091AboutMe: https://about.me/srini091His book about sustainability: https://amzn.to/2UIU7h4References made during the show, not in order:“What will I do about it” an Instagram post: https://www.instagram.com/p/CA8PM6EJxOx/On his cycling trip across the country: https://yourstory.com/2018/03/srini-swaminathan-marathon-solar-schools/ampGetting Meta links:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/40Vo30aQilVrxEOkoSmDjx?si=pCOPeJlcR0uN_g2ZZs8iLQ&dl_branch=1Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-meta/id1573882113Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9zdGF0aWMuYWRvcmlsYWJzLmNvbS9mZWVkL2dldHRpbmctbWV0YS54bWwIVM website: https://shows.ivmpodcasts.com/show/getting-meta-y2rb-RtSzWNdzZ8i99R2QFollow your host on:Twitter: twitter.com/chuck_gopalInstagram: instagram.com/chuckofalltradesEmail: chuck@chuckofalltrades.inSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
