A new solopreneur or an ambitious corporate side-hustler looking to start a podcast – you’re in the right place! 

Hey! I’m Mahrukh Imtiaz, owner and host of ‘Spicy Chai’ – a podcast for content creators.  🎙️

In Feb 2021, I aired the very first episode of ‘Spicy Chai’ – my podcast for content creators. 

Today, ‘Spicy Chai’ is ranked in the global 10% of all podcasts! A fantastic achievement at any time, but so much more amazing in just my first year. 

A podcast is an excellent choice if you’ve been looking for:

✔️ A creative outlet to help people with your knowledge

✔️ A way to diversify your income stream

✔️ An idea for a side hustle

Having my own podcast has helped me become a more confident speaker, brought me speaking opportunities, connected me to people with millions of followers and helped me clarify my message. 

50+ episodes in, I now want to inspire YOU to work up the courage to put YOUR voice, YOUR thoughts, and YOUR message out there!

But that’s not all. I thrive in fast-paced corporate environments too! As a remote leader for one of the top companies, I’ve launched an HR chatbot, driven process improvements in HR operations, and designed and implemented leadership and culture programs. 

Balancing a podcast and a demanding 9-5 has taught me how to execute and stay consistent, even with a packed schedule. 

In addition to podcasting:

🏏 I play cricket for Team Canada

🙊 I’m obsessed with my 5-year-old nephew (he’s my best friend)

🥘 I daydream about Pakistani Biryani a little too often!

A podcast isn’t for everyone but ready for your podcast to meet the world even though you are time-starved? I have a value-loaded, free training video where you can learn how to start a podcast today.
