Corporate trainer and motivational speaker Priya Kumar recently launched Season 2 of her free 52-week workshop on YouTube. The video workshop is meant for all those keen on making a breakthrough in their lives. While the first season of the workshop took place in 2017, Season 2 is called ‘Creators of the Future 2020’ and its 52 episodes, of 10-15 minutes duration each, will be updated weekly on Sundays. In the videos, Priya will give advice on how to overcome obstacles at work, the importance of keeping one’s promises to oneself, how to define concrete goals in one’s life etc and will also assigns tasks onscreen for viewers to complete in real life in order to move past barriers. Says Priya: “In the first episode, for example, I convey the importance of bringing a closure to the past. In order to move forward into the future, I recommend that you first tie up your loose ends of the year 2018 by completing the goals you have promised yourself in the year, before tackling goals for the year 2019.” As the episodes build up over the year, the motivational speaker will address different issues that are common to workplaces and people’s personal lives and discuss their solutions onscreen. Priya will also subsequently answer specific queries from viewers on her Instagram chat after each episode, she tells us. When we asked the dynamic lady how long it takes her to shoot each episode, she replied: “Six hours, if one includes content gathering and shoot retakes. And then an extra day for the editing.” So just why is she doing this free of cost for viewers when she is in a position to do otherwise, we were keen to know? Said Priya: “I’m fulfilling a debt of gratitude for all the people who have helped me get to where I am today. This is my thank-you back to all those people who have supported me!”
