The Story of You!-Season 3
This is where young entrepreneurs get to share their journey with the world
​
My aim is to reach out to other kids and to let them know that they can accomplish what they set their minds to no matter the age
​
The idea came when we were all deprived of peer connection during the COVID-19 pandemic; I was a class 7 student at Dhirubhai Ambani International School, Mumbai, and with the help of my parents decided to launch my own podcast titled -
‘The Story of You.
The podcast was number 18 across 3 Apple Podcast categories under the All-India Kids and Family category.
My podcast is a way of storytelling, learning, and staying connected in a boundary-less world always on the go.
Podcast available an all major streaming platforms such as - spotify , apple podcasts , google podcasts
Episode 1
“The ocean listens
when courage speaks.”​
Thaaragai, just 11 years old, but already a true force of nature. Fondly known as the Ocean’s Little Girl, she has pulled more than 5,000 kilos of plastic waste from the ocean floor- an extraordinary feat for someone so young. Through her swimming and her activism, she’s made the fight against marine pollution both urgent and unforgettable. What makes her stand out is the creativity with which she spreads her message: she’s played chess underwater, performed Bharatanatyam, practised yoga and meditation, and even staged symbolic clean-ups, each act designed to make us pause and pay attention to the ocean’s cries for help.

Episode 2
You need to amplify
your voice.”
Meet Siyaa, a 17-year-old researcher and environmental advocate from Arizona who’s quite literally turning science into a shield for communities. She created RADAR, a material that changes colour to detect invisible pollutants like uranium and silica, a breakthrough that could transform how vulnerable communities safeguard their health.

Episode 3
“Every breakthrough
is a seed of hope.”
Nandini is 19, and she’s using cutting-edge gene editing to take on one of humanity’s greatest challenges: food security. Her work with CRISPR focuses on rice, making it more resilient to climate change, so farmers can continue to feed a growing world despite rising temperatures and unpredictable weather. She’s already been presenting her work on global stages, but what makes her stand out is her belief that science isn’t just about fancy breakthroughs. For her, it’s about something far more fundamental: feeding the future.

Episode 4
“You just need curiosity
that refuses to stop.”
Sirish may only be 14, but he’s already inventing technology with the potential to change how we eat. He built PestiSCAND, a handheld device that detects pesticide residue on fruits and vegetables- giving families an easy, practical way to know what’s really safe to eat. It’s practical, brilliant, and deeply rooted in care for people’s health. Recognised as America’s Top Young Scientist, Sirish is proof that curiosity and compassion can create world-class innovation.

“Action follows
through volunteering,
collaborations, and care.”
In this episode, I speak with Gia Narang and Mihikaa Jhaveri, the founders of Healing Hearts, a youth-led foundation committed to advancing mental health awareness and breaking the stigma surrounding it. Healing Hearts focuses on creating meaningful conversations around mental health through interactive sessions, school-based initiatives, informative digital content, and monthly themes that explore different mental health concerns in depth. Their approach prioritises accessibility, empathy, and practical understanding, especially for young people.
