Juggling work-home-kids is never easy, but setting up an office at home while your kids are being virtually schooled made the procedure infinitely more challenging.


Hear it from Pooja Sriram Belur, working mom, author, blogger, and Manager — Brand Communications at Chargebee, who captures the essence of this difficult yet memorable time in the lives of working mothers through her newly-released children’s book, Amma’s Work From Home Buddy.

In India, careers in civil services and defence services are still hugely popular, evident from the millions of people who continue to appear for the nationalised examinations in the hope of getting selected.


In fact, the high level of competition attached to these examinations has spawned an entire industry. To train students to appear in centralised exams, coaching institutions are as respected as their traditional educational counterparts. 


One such prominent player is The Catalyst Group, founded by Akhand Swaroop Pandit from Jaipur. It began as a YouTube channel in 2017, but its immense popularity in a short time led it to become an on-ground coaching centre in 2019 in three different cities – Jaipur, Lucknow, and Pune.


Catalyst offers online and offline coaching for many competitive examinations and skill courses at an affordable price.

Started by Abhinayah Sundaramoorthy and Nandakumar Lakshmanan, The Yellow Dwelling operates across three Indian states — a centralised warehouse in Tamil Nadu, a franchise store in Hyderabad, and two retail stores and an experience centre in Bengaluru.

India has an alarming level of insulin resistance. Some research has labelled the insulin resistance trend in India as an epidemic. There is some thought that the contribution of genetics and environment might be involved, and this is debatable.


The tendency of Indians to have higher rates of insulin resistance might be programmed in utero, but infections, environmental toxins, and diet are contributors. Here’s what you should do to reverse this condition.
