    How Procrastination Costs Indians MILLIONS in Lost Wealth? | Mukesh Mansukhani | #TGV697
    Feb 12 2026
    In this episode of The Guiding Voice #TGV697, Naveen Samala sits down with Mukesh Mansukhani, a seasoned chartered accountant with over 25 years of global financial experience, to explore the critical importance of financial literacy in India and practical tips to master personal finance. Discover how habits, mindsets, and early investments can transform your financial future.Main Topics Covered:The state of financial literacy in India and its impactCommon psychological barriers to financial decision-makingPractical habits for wealth creation and financial securityMyths around insurance, debt, and investingHow to nurture financial literacy across generationsEvaluating financial advice and advisor relationshipsThe power of early investing and compoundingStrategies for building wealth while paycheck to paycheckKey Insights & Takeaways:Indian financial literacy is only 36.8%, ranking 19th globally, indicating a significant knowledge gap.Managing finances involves understanding the metaphor of buckets—covering income, expenses, savings, and investments—and avoiding holes like debt or lack of emergency funds.The biggest psychological hurdles include fear, procrastination, and ego; overcoming these requires making friends with money and automating savings.Early investment habits, consistency, and patience through compounding are essential. Waiting for perfect conditions or market timing often leads to missed opportunities.Not all debt is bad; responsible debt for assets like houses can be beneficial, but overspending on liabilities (e.g., vacations) is risky.Insurance is risk mitigation; avoid complex products with high commissions and focus on simple term plans.Women’s financial empowerment leads to better decision-making; conversations about money should begin early in families.Formal financial education in schools is limited; parents and families should take an active role in imparting financial skills.When choosing financial advisors, always ask, "Where are you getting paid from?" to avoid conflicts of interest.Chapters:0:00:00 - Precap0:00:00 - Introduction and episode overview0:02:17 - Rapid fire: Mukesh’s quick insights on curiosity, future, leadership, money, savings0:05:14 - Influences: The guiding voices of Mukesh’s childhood and mentors0:07:24 - India’s financial literacy in comparison globally0:09:23 - Why good salaries often don’t lead to financial security0:10:53 - Psychological reasons behind money procrastination0:12:28 - Common financial mistakes Indian families repeat0:16:36 - Understanding different money personalities and tailored planning0:18:21 - The myth of insurance and employer schemes as comprehensive plans0:20:32 - Rethinking debt: When is borrowing beneficial?0:22:03 - The importance of patience and consistency for compounding0:25:18 - Emotional baggage and childhood beliefs around money0:27:54 - Breaking the silence on family money discussions0:30:02 - Why financial literacy is critical for women and practical family steps0:33:06 - Integrating financial education at home & school0:36:20 - How to evaluate financial advisors critically0:38:42 - Early decision that compounded positively & one to avoid0:43:50 - Advice for young professionals and aspiring CFOs0:44:36 - Mukesh’s experience on the Guiding Voice podcast & parting words0:45:49 - Global stats: Financial literacy crisis in India and its significance0:47:44 - Self-assessment and tips for building financial literacy and wealthGuest LI profile link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mukesh-mansukhani-5b64466/Connect with the host on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/naveensamala/Grab a copy of Naveen Samala’s latest book, “69 Naked Truths”Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/69NTAMZNFlipkart: https://tinyurl.com/69NTFPKTTGV Inspiring Lives Volume 1 & 2 are on AmazonKindle:https://amzn.eu/d/cKTKtyCPaperback:https://amzn.eu/d/4Y1HAXjVolume 2:Notion Press: http://surl.li/tmkryUse the Coupon code: NAVEEN20 on notionpress.com to avail a 20% discount Hosted on Acast.

  • Reincarnation Decoded: Do Past Lives Control Your Present? Hema Subramanian & Sowmiya Bhas | #TGV696

    Reincarnation Decoded: Do Past Lives Control Your Present? Hema Subramanian & Sowmiya Bhas | #TGV696
    Feb 9 2026

    Summary

    In this enlightening episode of The Guiding Voice, hosts Hema Subramanian and Sowmiya Bhas delve into the intriguing world of Past Life Regression Therapy (PLRT). They explore how past lives may influence present-day issues, the skepticism surrounding PLRT, and the transformative experiences of clients. The conversation also touches on the mind-body connection, the role of belief in healing, and the ethical considerations of karma in therapy. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, the guests provide a comprehensive understanding of PLRT and its potential to facilitate healing and self-discovery.


    Takeaways

    PLRT can help uncover the roots of present-day issues.

    The mind is more complex than just a memory storage.

    Skepticism about PLRT often stems from a lack of understanding of the mind.

    Healing can occur through emotional release linked to past experiences.

    The body has an innate intelligence to heal itself when blocks are removed.

    Belief in reincarnation is not necessary for PLRT to be effective.

    Clients often experience profound transformations in just one session.

    Karma should not be used to excuse victimization or suffering.

    The process of PLRT involves guiding clients to access their subconscious memories.

    Therapists must respect the client's truth and personal journey.


    Sound bites

    "Your mind knows what it is doing."

    "We are not the bodies, we are beyond it."

    "The past has no holding over us."

    SummaryIn this conversation, Umang shares his personal journey of self‑discovery, reflecting on how being gay is far more than a label—it is one aspect of a larger human identity. He speaks about the need to move beyond stereotypes and highlights the importance of creating safe, meaningful spaces where honest conversations about identity, acceptance, and humanity can take place.Building on this openness, Umang Sheth and Naveen Samala discuss vulnerability and the courage required to ask for help.

    SummaryIn this conversation, Naveen Samala and Chuck Marting shine a light on the misunderstood and often invisible world of workplace impairment. They unpack the blind spots leaders commonly have about what impairment actually looks like — far beyond the obvious signs. The discussion reveals how impairment can hide behind overperformance, burnout, or sudden dips in productivity, and how employees often mask their struggles behind a facade of normalcy. They debunk myths that impairment is always visible and stress the urgent need for retraining, awareness, and open conversations. Ultimately, they call for leaders to better understand mental health nuances and team dynamics to build healthier, high-trust workplaces.TakeawaysImpairment is widely misunderstood and often invisible.Leaders frequently misinterpret signs of impairment, confusing burnout for high performance.Employees may hide their struggles until performance collapses.Millions experience some form of impairment at work, yet it rarely gets identified.Retraining leaders is essential to recognizing subtle indicators.Impairment isn’t always external — it can manifest as overachievement.Sudden performance dips may signal deeper issues.Open communication helps uncover hidden struggles.Understanding impairment improves team health and outcomes.Educating leaders breaks myths and supports a more inclusive, aware workplace.Sound BitesWhat is the biggest blind spot that leaders have?Impairment hides in plain sight.It’s not always what we think it is.High performance can mask deep struggle.Chapters0:00:00 Precap and the introduction0:03:00 The Real Face of Workplace Impairment0:06:14 The Myths Leaders Still Believe0:09:00 The scariest trend that employers are completely ignoring0:12:00 The CODE in Mastering the Impairment Code0:14:30 How to spot a high-functioning impaired person versus someone who's just having a bad day?0:17:00 Exact signs that managers should look for within an impaired employee0:19:00 How to distinguish between 'they need mental health support' versus 'they're impaired'?0:21:00 What's the mental gymnastics?0:23:24 Zero Blind Spots: A Leadership Essential0:25:00 If someone is struggling with impairment, here’s the one thing they should knowGuest LI profile link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/chuck-marting-aa849660/Connect with the host on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/naveensamala/Also, Tune into our Hindi, Telugu & Kannada podcasts here:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/TGVHindihttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVTeluguhttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVKannadaSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1GvX6tvmfelawEba0F6KS4http://surl.li/tmksx (#tgvtelugu)Grab a copy of Naveen Samala’s latest book, “69 Naked Truths”Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/69NTAMZNFlipkart: https://tinyurl.com/69NTFPKTTGV Inspiring Lives Volume 1 & 2 are on AmazonKindle:https://amzn.eu/d/cKTKtyCPaperback:https://amzn.eu/d/4Y1HAXjVolume 2:Notion Press: http://surl.li/tmkryUse the Coupon code: NAVEEN20 on notionpress.com to avail a 20% discountKindle Edition:http://surl.li/tmmmnAMZ IN: http://surl.li/tmmnbAMZ UK: http://surl.li/tmmnlFOLLOW ON X:@guidingvoice@naveensamala Hosted on Acast.

    Why Billionaires Can’t Save the World — But You Can | Suzanne Smith |#TGV691
    Jan 22 2026
    SummaryIn this conversation, Suzanne Smith and Chanda Khanwani discuss the common misconceptions surrounding the role of money in making a difference in the world. They emphasize the importance of focusing on the core values and impact ('stake') rather than just the financial aspects ('sizzle'). The dialogue explores how money can be a tool to amplify efforts towards meaningful change, rather than the primary driver.Grab a copy of Naveen Samala’s latest book, “69 Naked Truths”Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/69NTAMZNFlipkart: https://tinyurl.com/69NTFPKTTakeawaysOne of the biggest myths is you need money to make a difference.Money helps fuel the efforts to create change.It's essential to start with a focus on impact.The concept of 'stake' should guide our actions.Money should follow the mission, not lead it.Everything done to make a difference should be stake-oriented.The 'sizzle' is secondary to the 'steak' in impact work.Opportunities arise when the focus is on meaningful change.Financial resources can amplify efforts but are not the core.True impact comes from a commitment to values and purpose.Suzanne shares:The story of becoming a Big Sister at age 18, and how it shaped her purpose.The daily moments that reaffirm her belief that ordinary people move mountains.Her definition of success:→ “Significance with receipts.”Guest LI profile link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzannesmithtx/Connect with the host on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/naveensamala/Also, Tune into our Hindi, Telugu & Kannada podcasts here:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/TGVHindihttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVTeluguhttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVKannadaSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1GvX6tvmfelawEba0F6KS4http://surl.li/tmksx (#tgvtelugu)Grab a copy of Naveen Samala’s latest book, “69 Naked Truths”Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/69NTAMZNFlipkart: https://tinyurl.com/69NTFPKTTGV Inspiring Lives Volume 1 & 2 are on AmazonKindle:https://amzn.eu/d/cKTKtyCPaperback:https://amzn.eu/d/4Y1HAXjVolume 2:Notion Press: http://surl.li/tmkryUse the Coupon code: NAVEEN20 on notionpress.com to avail a 20% discountKindle Edition:http://surl.li/tmmmnAMZ IN: http://surl.li/tmmnbAMZ UK: http://surl.li/tmmnlFOLLOW ON X:@guidingvoice@naveensamala Hosted on Acast.

    Jan 20 2026
    Episode SummaryIn this episode, engineer, innovator, and author Russ Walsh shares his remarkable journey from a successful career in IT and cybersecurity to becoming a passionate advocate for tackling climate change—specifically the accelerating crisis of rising sea levels. Motivated by the global disruption caused during the COVID‑19 era, Russ shifted his focus toward one of humanity’s greatest challenges.He presents his bold vision: redirecting ocean water inland to create sustainable, life‑supporting ecosystems, an idea aimed at preventing mass coastal displacement while unlocking new opportunities for global economic growth. The conversation explores the science, engineering challenges, and feasibility of large‑scale water redirection, as well as the urgent need for innovative, cross‑border collaboration.Russ discusses his book, which raises awareness about sea level rise and outlines actionable solutions to safeguard the planet’s future. The episode emphasizes the importance of forward‑thinking leadership and proactive climate action.Key Takeaways Sea levels are rising at an alarming rate—about an inch every decade, posing serious long‑term threats.Russ transitioned from IT and cybersecurity into climate work after witnessing COVID‑19’s global vulnerabilities.His visionary concept aims to redirect oceans inland to create sustainable ecosystems and reduce coastal risk.Without intervention, rising seas could displace millions across coastal regions worldwide.Innovative, large‑scale engineering solutions are required to mitigate climate impacts.Collaboration among governments, scientists, and global leaders is essential for solving climate challenges.Russ’s book serves as a wake‑up call on the urgency of rising sea levels.Proactive, early‑stage climate action is significantly more effective than reactive measures.His proposals have the potential to unlock trillions in new economic opportunities through sustainable development.Public awareness and global cooperation are foundational to any real climate impact.Sound Bites:“Rising sea levels are one of the biggest threats of our time.”“Redirecting ocean water inland could unlock unprecedented global growth.”“To solve sea level rise, we need innovation at scale.”“Climate action only works when the world collaborates.”“Proactive climate measures are far more powerful than reactive responses.”“Russ Walsh’s vision reimagines what’s possible for sustainability.”“Awareness is the first step toward saving our coastlines.”“A sustainable future isn’t just ethical—it’s economically massive.”“Climate change demands global cooperation, not isolated action.”“Innovative thinking is the key to overcoming environmental challenges.”Chapters00:00:01 — Introduction to Russ Walsh00:00:31 — The Vision: Redirecting Oceans Inland00:00:57 — The Urgency Behind Rising Sea Levels00:01:40 — Innovation, Engineering, and Feasibility Challenges00:03:11 — Rapid Fire Round with Russ Walsh00:05:30 — From IT & Cybersecurity to Climate Advocacy00:09:08 — Global Collaboration & The Road AheadGuest LI profile link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/russwalsh/Connect with the host on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/naveensamala/Also, Tune into our Hindi, Telugu & Kannada podcasts here:YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/TGVHindihttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVTeluguhttps://www.youtube.com/c/TGVKannadaSpotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1GvX6tvmfelawEba0F6KS4http://surl.li/tmksx (#tgvtelugu)Grab a copy of Naveen Samala’s latest book, “69 Naked Truths”Amazon: https://tinyurl.com/69NTAMZNFlipkart: https://tinyurl.com/69NTFPKTTGV Inspiring Lives Volume 1 & 2 are on AmazonKindle:https://amzn.eu/d/cKTKtyCPaperback:https://amzn.eu/d/4Y1HAXjVolume 2:Notion Press: http://surl.li/tmkryUse the Coupon code: NAVEEN20 on notionpress.com to avail a 20% discountKindle Edition:http://surl.li/tmmmnAMZ IN: http://surl.li/tmmnbAMZ UK: http://surl.li/tmmnlFOLLOW ON X:@guidingvoice@naveensamala Hosted on Acast.
