During the pandemic, Naveen & Sudhakar were exploring the possibilities of interacting with the students, like we were doing in normal times. They realized that having an opportunity to interact with the current generation using digital platforms. It would reach out to a larger audience across geographies and time zones and create a platform not only to share knowledge and have the opportunity to interact with specialists to share their experiences. They started The Guiding Voice. It is now listed in the top 3% of motivational and inspirational podcasts.

Hence, we have included a section called “Inspiring Lives” with their profiles for our readers’ ease of connecting with them. This book also hopes to bring mentoring moments to the lives of its readers. To make referencing easier, the book is divided into four sections. These sections are focused on: 1. Self-Development 2.
