What if the cure is sunlight?
Send us a text I grew up hearing “Go sit in the morning sun, it’s good for you.” At the time, it sounded like one of those things you were just supposed to do — like drinking haldi milk or doing Surya Namaskar. But now, science says they were right all along. This episode is about the quiet power of early sunlight — how it lifts your mood, resets your body, and reminds you what being alive feels like. Because sometimes the most powerful medicine isn’t in a bottle. It’s right outsi...

When did you last really notice?
Send us a text I went out looking for mushrooms. That’s it. Nothing fancy. And somehow, it turned into one of the happiest days I’ve had in a long time. This episode is about rediscovering childlike joy — the kind that hides in small things when we finally slow down enough to notice. If you’ve been rushing lately, this one’s for you. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episodes drop weekly.

What does it really mean to show up?
Send us a text We often say I’m here for you — but are we really showing up in ways that help, or just in ways that suit us? In this episode, I explore what real support looks like: lowering the effort for the other person, asking instead of assuming, and keeping the thread alive. Because showing up isn’t about performance. It’s about presence. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episodes drop weekly. Subscribe to ...

Are we managing health, or living it?
Send us a text After listening to Dr. Rhonda Patrick talk longevity science, I found myself wondering — are we all becoming a bit too obsessed? We track, hack, and optimise, yet often miss the basics: sunlight, movement, rest, simple food. This episode explores what balance really looks like, from Ayurveda to Blue Zones, and why health isn’t the goal — it’s what helps us live well. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 N...

What can change in five days?
Send us a text I share a Japanese tradition of seventy-two microseasons — each just five days long — and how it inspired me to notice the small shifts in my own life. From fallen leaves and spider webs to restless energy and quiet evenings, these mini-seasons remind us that renewal doesn’t have to wait for the big milestones. A new beginning can start every five days — if we choose to notice it. What would you call your last five days? 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goe...

What if pain and joy belong together?
Send us a text A line from The Sandman made me pause: “There is no such thing as a one-sided coin.” In this episode, I sit with what it means to hold both sides — grief and laughter, ache and hope, endings and beginnings — and what wholeness might look like when we let it all belong. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episodes drop weekly.

Are you ready to hear yourself?
Send us a text I’ve been thinking about what happens when you stop softening the edges and start telling the truth — not to other people, but to yourself. It’s uncomfortable. It’s freeing. And it made me pause. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episodes drop weekly.

Who should adjust?
Send us a text A women’s event. A soft-spoken panel. A woman at the back who asked for more than a seat at the front—and in doing so, made me rethink the whole setup. This is the moment that made me pause. Not just because of what she said, but what it revealed about how we still misunderstand inclusion. A short story about hearing, design, and shifting the spotlight. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episo...

Is everyone just faking it?
Send us a text If even Bob Dylan needed reassurance, what chance do the rest of us have? In this episode, I share a story that completely reframed how I think about imposter syndrome — not as a flaw, but as a signpost. Maybe feeling like you’re out of your depth means you’re exactly where you need to be. A short reflection on doubt, growth, and why nobody really knows what they’re doing. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress...

Can a sentence define you?
Send us a text Some childhood memories fade. Others leave a mark so deep, they shape who we become — even when we don't realise it. In this episode, I share the one sentence I heard as a child that quietly rewired the way I moved through the world. It’s a story about ambition, identity, and the invisible power of words. If you’ve ever wondered where your fire comes from — or what you might’ve said that stuck with someone else — this one’s for you. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted b...

When is it time to stop?
Send us a text I didn’t reach the summit. And that’s where the real reflection began. This episode is about a climb I didn’t finish — and what that decision taught me about limits, timing, and quiet strength. Sometimes, the lesson isn’t in pushing through, but in knowing when to stop. If you’re mid-climb in any part of life — this one’s for you. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and hiker in progress. 💌 New episodes drop weekly.

Is it just stuff?
Send us a text It started with a junk drawer. One of those quiet afternoons where the clutter felt too much. What began as a simple purge made me pause — and ask why I’ve been holding on to so much, and what actually matters. This episode is about the invisible weight of stuff, the stories we attach to objects, and the truth that home isn’t made of things — it’s made of people, moments, and the lightness we let in when we finally let go. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna G...

Who’s it really for?
Send us a text I didn’t expect a question about my LinkedIn headline to stop me in my tracks. But it did. This episode is about the strange discomfort of being recognised — and the even stranger idea that sharing our wins might not be about us at all. It’s about the pause that comes when someone sees something in you that you’re not quite ready to own… and what happens when you choose to show up anyway. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, artist, and h...

What would you write?
Send us a text In this episode, I share what happened when I led an identity exercise at work — and surprised myself by what I wrote. It made the room go still. And in that stillness, I paused too. This is a story about invisible identities, quiet loss, and the unexpected power of naming what we usually keep hidden. Sometimes, the softest truth changes the entire room — and leaves you seeing yourself differently. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, art...

What if it’s this moment?
Send us a text Before the stories, the questions. This short trailer introduces This Made Me Pause—a podcast about the unexpected moments that make us stop, shift, and see things differently. Each week, I’ll share one real moment that changed how I saw work, life, or myself. No life hacks. Just honest reflections from life in progress. If you're wondering what matters now, this is your cue to pause. 🎙️ This Made Me Pause is written and hosted by Prerna Goel – fintech leader, ar...
