New episode of scalr sagecast with career coach, Aditya Rajagopalan.

Aditya’s career started the way many of ours did: fairly traditional, ticking the expected boxes, following the well-lit corporate path.
But somewhere along the way, he realised that doing what you’re good at and doing what you’re built for aren’t always the same thing.

So he tried things on.
Different roles. Different environments. Different challenges.
And in that process of exploration he found his real calling: coaching - helping people think clearer, lead better, and move forward with confidence.

In this episode, we dig into:

  • How a conventional corporate career can become a launch pad for reinvention
  • Why exposure to different roles can be the fastest route to clarity
  • The moments that pushed Aditya toward coaching as a true vocation
  • And why good mentors have become critical in today’s market - where uncertainty, layoffs and shifting expectations have left a lot of people feeling stuck

It’s a grounded, honest conversation about choice, identity and growth - and why we all benefit from having someone in our corner who’s willing to challenge, support and push us.
