Hi, I’m Aruna
This is my personal blog, where I share my thoughts on books, managing money, career growth, my PhD experience, and the systems and workflows I use to get things done.
If you’re looking to make better financial decisions, find effective ways to organise your digital life, or discover a good book to read, you’re in the right place!
You can also find me on Twitter/X, Instagram and LinkedIn

I also write a weekly newsletter about building a fulfilling life.
Each issue starts with a story, then looks at what research says about the topic at hand, and finally shows a few practical ways to apply the lessons learned to your own life.
