In this episode we discuss the following:

• The skills that got us to where we are may not be sufficient to get us to where we want to go, given the rapidly changing world. So, we need to continually upscale or rescale, to prepare ourselves to do something adjacent or something different.
• For Ravin, the journey of reinvention is his destination.
• Seek to continually reinvent yourself.
