Summary
Komal Kapoor is the creator of one of the first art poetry pages on Instagram. She quit her corporate job to help individuals be more themselves. She comes from a traditional South Asian family and it caused her to not express her feelings. This made her great at her job, but not great at relationships. We discuss how heartbreaks can happen with non romantic relationships, how to turn your heartbreak into art, spending money lowers your vibration, why women are bad at negotiating, people copying her Instagram concept, traveling alone, and her weird crush on Tim Ferris,
Purchase her book "Unfollowing You" on Amazon.
