Rishi Vasudev, CEO of GOAT brand labs on playing sports to stay fit, running marathons and getting in shape after 40+

I, speaking with Rishi is currently the Co-founder & CEO of Goat brand labs. One of India's largest D2C aggregator.

Can you pick up a new sport after hitting 40+ and keep getting better?

Well that's exactly what you'll learn as i explore the other side of the guest for this episode.

Rishi was the SVP at Flipkart & Myntra and built their fashion business and has been a CEO of multiple high-growth companies such as Lifestyle international & Calvin Klien.

So obviously you would expect us to talk about E-commerce, fashion, startups & scaling brands.

Well, we discussed none of this.

We spoke how playing different sports after 40 shaped his professional and personal life. Learning tennis, squash & journey with long distance running while building a startup. His physical fitness routine & approach to managing stress. His current training for marathons. And the secret to keep playing different sports as you age.

Rishi spoke about his goal for Tata Mumbai half marathon. Quick update: He finished 10 mins faster than his target 🙂

You will go out and start playing a sport after exploring the other side of Rishi.

So lets explore - his "Other Side"
