"Opportunities don't happen, you create them." This is a common quote spotted on motivational signage and in self-help books with the intent to inspire the reader. But often, what makes a bigger impact are stories set in reality based on people just like us. Their grind to reach their goal pumps our enthusiasm, pushing us to do better. Milind Agnihotri, an entrepreneur from Pune has brought forward a podcast to do exactly that - motivate us through success stories of commoners.
Agnihotri along with his wife, Asha, came up with the idea of their podcast Wings, at the beginning of 2022. With positive response that they got for the project, the Agnihotris decided to continue the podcast extending its run. Beginning the year 2023 with their latest third session, Agnihotri once again dons the cape of the host as he interviews dynamic individuals about their failures, success, hard work and goals.
While Season 2 begins on a calmer note, the second episode witnesses the interview of Sreelakshmi from Mangalore, a practising lawyer who aspires to become a Judge Advocate General (JAG) officer in the Indian Army. The podcast proceeds with her opening up about the journey of finding her passion in the Armed Forces, getting selected for the 65th National Shooting Championship in 10m Air Pistol category and the struggles she faced during her journey.
Ditching the professional approach, the podcast maintains its raw format, giving the listeners an illusion of tuning into a simple chat between two friends. However, the audio quality may sometimes make it difficult to decipher the voice of the interviewee. Wings makes for a solid listening experience for those who are looking for inspiration around them. As the podcast has just begun its third season, it piques our curiosity to know whose story might be the right one to get us up and going.
