I was taking on a subject of Fianancial inclusion through digitalisation.
I hope you enjoyed it.

to było niesamowite, siostro! Po prostu pochlebiło mi słuchanie tego, co mówisz, jesteś osobą, która cieszy się z indyjskich osiągnięć, ale także dodanie czegoś do tego pomaga Indiom osiągnąć kolejny cel. wiemy, nie jesteśmy doskonali, po prostu jesteśmy nowi i dopiero zaczynamy rozumieć nasze istnienie w świecie. po prostu jestem przytłoczony, nie wiem o czym rozmawiać! to były schody, po których wejdziesz i pójdziesz dalej. gratuluję siostrom wszystkich osiągnięć🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

I must thank KZfaq algorithm for introducing your channel to me. I find your channel quite interesting. When giving your speech I can sense your nervousness in your voice but it's not about being nervous or not. It's about the precious knowledge you've shared. Even though you were feeling nervous, it didn't stop you from delivering your know how and went through it without any hitch. I heartfelt admired your courage. As we all know " when the going gets tough, the tough gets going" and you show it to the world. And I wish you a blessed future. With regards.....👏👏👏👏👏👏

oh my, thank you so much for this encouraging message, I really appreciate you saying that. and you are right about how I felt etc. it was totally outside of mt comfort zone and I was almost going to refuse it due to the fear. But I decided to punch my fear in a face and guess what! I didn't die! (that's why we fear things- our mind just plays tricks with us) it was totally worth it and I really hope such opportunity comes along again for me. Thank you for watching and hope you find some other videos interesting too.

Congratulations on your invitation... You seem to be making very big steps in India... Like buying a car, becoming a fashion show judge, speaking on a radio show, and now this! Thats great! During your speech, however, you mentioned about cryptocurrencies and blockchain... I am not very knowledgeable about this topic, so I might be wrong, but as far as I know, the Reserve Bank of India has banned crypto in India... So maybe this particular topic is not relevant to financial inclusion in the Indian landscape. Congratulations again!
