Soundarya Balasubramani
Hi there,
I'm Soundarya Balasubramani aka Pooja.
An author, founder, immigrant, and full-time experimenter.
I try a lot of things. Most fail. A few work. I share both here.
Currently: I’m writing my first novel (1000 Days of Love), building a course on creating your unfair advantage (Beyond Luck), hosting the largest conference for high-skilled immigrants in America (unshackled.events), and yes… exploring a movie adaptation for my book. 🙃
On this channel, you’ll find content around:
🌎 Growing a content entrepreneurship business
🛂 Studying/working/building in America
✍🏽 Storytelling, writing, and the creative process
If you’re curious, ambitious, and building something unconventional — you’re in the right place.
