Week of 18 – 24 August 2025.

 A delayed post.

 Saturday 30^th Aug 2025          Day 23268. 

Missed posting on Sunday 24^th Aug 2025 as I was away travelling to Singapore & Malaysia on a client engagement.

After the Independence Day on 15^th August (Bharat’s 79^th Independence Day), Mrs Shyamala Gopal’s 95^th birthday on 17^th August, one of my Mentees had his engagement event on the evening of 20^th August 2025 in Coimbatore.

An event to formalise the intent off two humans to come together in matrimony, but also an event to showcase the wealth and status of the two families. A display counter each for the two families to showcase what they were gifting the bride and the groom!!! Ostentatious flower arrangements and a fancy event hall. May the newly engaged couple experience a romantic time between their engagement and their wedding. May they get to know each other and establish a solid foundation of trust, respect and open communication with each other. May they accept each other whole-heartedly and as they truly are.

The week also saw me preparing for my client visit to Singapore and Malaysia (Johor Bahru) between 24^th – 26^th Aug. After getting the renewed passport on 12^th August, obtained the Singapore e-visa on the 14^th. Had to obtain the Singapore + Malaysia Immigration cards online within three days of date of travel. Completed the web check in on Scoot. The basic fare does not even allow checked-in baggage! Anyways, I plan to travel only with a strolley and a backpack both together under 10 kgs. A minimalist travel.

Looking forward to interacting with some top-notch professionals of an American food company having operations in Malaysia, as they gear up for becoming Mentors. What will kick-off on Aug 25^th and 26^th, goes on for the next few months as I hand-hold these aspiring Mentors via online sessions with each of them.

Flew out of Coimbatore on 23^rd late night and returned back on 26^th night. 

More about this in my next post.
