All my life, I have been fascinated (and frustrated!) with our every day interactions with the world, whether in personal or professional circles, across cultures, geographies and generations.

What is it about the human interactions that is so complex and yet so simple and why do we do it so well one day and so poorly the next day?

From the bizarre engineering world in college to a small start-up at my first job to then a decade plus career in a Fortune 100 company and now to entrepreneurship, my fascination with the human interaction has only grown more curious and intense.

I run in a lot of social circles, from my Persian family, my international friends to the world of entrepreneurs, corporate peeps from past life, yoga, travel and online social media.

All this only adds to my desire to dedicate this podcast to a topic that affects all of us everyday: Our daily interactions!
