Episode 1: Karishma Bhatia | The Real Finance Mentor Podcast

Presenting to you Episode 1 of The Real Finance Mentor podcast by Binod Shankar. In this episode we have Karishma Bhatia. Karishma is a girl who has tons of grit. She’s a CFA charter holder, a working mom and a finance professional. But those are not the only reasons why she’s our guest. Her CFA journey was long, grueling and eventful. She had a tough time balancing personal, work and exam life, badly underestimated the difficulty, got solidly kicked in the ass by the CFA exams (and recovered) twice and switched employers and careers, all with a smile. Listen as she talks about her hard won lessons on how to crack level II and III, the importance of a reliable partner(!), challenges faced by women in finance and her journey from couch potato to endurance athlete.
