Lifestyle entrepreneur Amar Ghose talks about the digital nomad life, and travelling the world as both the means and the end in itself! What do I mean? I mean Amar started travelling as a way to SAVE on expenses-- the Bay area, while being tech-central, is not very pocketbook-friendly. He gave up a lot to live the life he wants to live, and ends up meeting his future wife in Thailand! It’s beautiful how we can “connect the dots” in hindsight! He shares “the reddit post” that started it all! More...

Wow! Where were you when I needed you back in college Aisen!? The title basically says it all-- he coaches Asian men how to attract beautiful women. Let's be honest, I'm an Asian man so I can speak from experience-- we generally just suck at the dating game. A lot of this can be traced back to our culture, being raised "Asian-style," full of negative reinforcement and low self-esteem tactics. It's kind of sad when I write about it this way but I think a lot of Asian men can relate. Our parents t...

Thanks a million to Darren for allowing me to publish this episode! I always take a risk when recording and giving the option for the guest to cancel the whole episode. But as a startup podcast/show host, I have little else to entice viewers. My strategy recently is to provide small business start-up owners with marketing advice/help in exchange to let me record the podcast/show. If they don't get anything beneficial then they can tell me to delete it, but if I offer something of value then that...
