A quiet evening in Delhi turned into a life-altering moment when a simple suggestion from my brother planted the idea of starting over abroad. In this episode, I share how grief, career stagnation, self-doubt, and an unexpected push led me to take a leap of faith—leaving home, family, and everything familiar to pursue my master’s in the US. From navigating uncertainty, finances, and fear to finding support, resilience, and eventually falling in love with New York, this is a deeply personal story about immigration, independence, and the emotional cost of choosing yourself. If you’ve ever stood at the edge of a big decision, this one’s for you.
