This episode of the Attitude Makeover podcast features Navin Kumar, a former software engineer at Amazon turned stand-up comedian and storyteller. The conversation explores Navin's "reboot" journey, beginning with his upbringing in strict, "prison-like" schools in Chennai where gender segregation and corporal punishment were common. He details his transition to a more liberal college life in Coimbatore, where he studied Theoretical Computer Science before landing a high-paying job at Amazon, a move initially motivated by a one-sided love interest. A central theme of the podcast is Navin's decision to forego the "American Dream" (a promotion to Seattle) to stay in Bangalore and pursue comedy. This transition led to a difficult period of depression and alcoholism as he struggled with the loss of professional identity and fear of financial insecurity. The turning point in his life was a four-month stay in Auroville through the Swadharma program, which provided him with a holistic approach to living and redefined his relationship with money. Navin also breaks down his creative process, specifically the logic behind his viral "quadrant" comedy format. He explains that while he is a storyteller on stage, the quadrant model allows him to explore contradicting ideas and observational humor in a structured 2x2 matrix. The episode concludes with reflections on the creator economy, the importance of mentorship, and Navin's shift from being a "timid Tamil boy" to a confident performer who prioritizes happiness over the pursuit of wealth

What’s your SITUATIONSHIP with MONEY? Ft. A Multi-Generational ConversationHello and welcome to Attitude Makeover!

And that is very telling about how every generation and its perspective and perception of money varies as well! We don’t hold back and touch upon every aspect of life that is impacted/influenced by money (which is practically EVERYTHING)From circumstances to choices, we delve into the nitty-gritties that determine how we manage our finances. This includes our childhoods, familial dynamics, life stage and most importantly: our privilege and outlook towards life – the balance between our needs and wants in today’s modern and increasingly capitalistic world.The aim was to start a conversation and normalist discussions on money without the unspoken yet very evident feeling of embarrassment or shame attached to it. I think we did manage that (and how!), but here’s your major takeaway: As you work for money, become aware of your finances from the get-go and talk about it in your safe spaces to “make the money work for you.”Like, share and subscribe!
