The MyndStories Minis || Ep: 08 On making room for life in your heart

In this episode of the MyndStories Minis, Smitha Murthy talks to Chaithra MJ, a software developer-turned-writer.

This is a wholesome episode filled with wisdom as Chaithra and Smitha have a freewheeling conversation about many life-changing topics, including managing anxiety, the illusion of control, and how to be more accepting.

“You look around, people are happy and smiling, and I wonder if I ever get to do that. And I also know the answer is I stop myself from doing that.”

We discuss

1. What helps Chaithra manage her over-thinking tendencies

2. Different ways to let go and not chase control

3. What Chaithra does to accept oneself and manage self-criticism

4. Chaithra’s tips on finding happiness and practicing kindness, and making room for life in your heart

Chaithra’s bio

Chaithra worked in the software industry for almost 5 years before leaving it all to become a freelance writer in the middle of the pandemic in 2020.
