Conversations spark ideas and ideas lead to actions that drive growth of the society. I believe long and unfiltered deep conversation is a lost art in this near perfectly presented world. And this is my attempt to have real conversations with real minds and present them to you. The goal is to learn from the greatest minds and take you on the journey.
