THE START OF MOCKTAIL

<title> </title>THIS IS NOT A SPAM! 100% APPRECIATION ONLY! ;)

Hello everyone,

Yesterday was my last official day at work but I couldn't leave without thanking all of you. T_T

First and foremost I want to thank @Revant Bhate and @Dhyanesh Shah for creating this platform and opportunity for a lot of relatively young people including me, giving the space and trust to unlearn, learn and grow.

I had the amazing chance of seeing Man Matters, Mosaic Wellness and my personal growth over the 1+ years here.

Real graph of growth below

-----------------------------

I remember how confusing it was when I joined - to get to know who and what everyone was up to. I had even kept an excel to keep track. And being confused around these people is okay.

Everyone was super approachable and in no time made it feel like I was part of a small but supportive family. I loved spending time and working with you all. Big shoutout to all these people who made it such a comfortable and approachable place @Rohit Ganapathi @Upasana Mani @Urmi Bhatt @Mridul Muralidharan, @Abhinav Gupta, @Shruti Sud @Chitranjan Jain @Yash Lakhani @Kumar Tushar @Tarun Philip @Adharsh Apr @Aisha @Anmol Mahipal @Neha Kamat @Priya Shirgaokar @Catherine Rency @Mayank Kumar @Hardik Wala @Chandni Parchani @Vanshika Yadav @Mohnish Karjodkar 

I’m sure I missed out on a lot of names, but wanted you all to know that every conversation that I have had with you all have helped me shape my thoughts and actions for the better :)

Also after meeting a few cool minds joining in now @Bikram Kunwar @Tabish Ahmed @Ronak Daga, I’m excited to see us grow even steeper. + thank you @Abhinav Mohan for bringing in your fresh perspectives. I really enjoyed our interactions in this short time span.

-----------------------------

I think I worked with almost all the teams at one point of time and wanna give a big shoutout to a few I worked closely with.

The amazing design team, @Shubhangi Verma and @Vishnuvardhaa Rajendran who helped me execute some real cool content. A special mention to @Anson Poulose who always goes out of his way to help me out.

Here’s one more 'Creative Request' for you guys.

-----------------------------

Always planning 'Big, Bigger and Bigger' campaigns with @Kanika Goenka and @Anuroop Nair to executing reels and going viral with @Amit Awate and @Pranita Anchan. Somehow I became an influencer and ‘performance’ expert at the end of this. :3

-----------------------------

@Suvimal Veerendranath, @Marmik Mankodi who have always been one call away for any help and helped me read and understand ‘numbers’ better. A big thanks to the PM team that helped me shape and give direction to my creativity, giving me a strong base to what I will be working on in the future + for giving me small doses of dopamine when our ads get approved.

-----------------------------

Last but not the least the people who were there every step of the way. @Geet Rathi @Ruchika Sikarwar @Bharath Sreenath 

Geet, thank you for letting me find my strengths and weaknesses, for being an A1 mentor and a friend. You bring rationality to my spontaneousness and have been my sounding board for all my crazy ideas. Will really miss waking up and not attending stand ups with you and Bharath. Thank you for giving me the freedom, ownership and trust that you gave so that I can do what I do best.

Bharath for being my A1 since day 1. We figured it all out together and I’m glad I had you with me. A trusting and dependable teammate that has your back all the time is hard to find. Our Trivandrum branch of MM aced it wfh, in cafe’s, beaches and what not. Can’t wait to see your journey ahead.

Ruchika - I have never seen someone be this dedicated to a brand, treating Be.bodywise like it’s your own. Even though you always have A LOT on her plate, working day and night, you’ve been available one text away to help with the smallest doubts I have or just to rant. TQ so much.

Really wanted to make a short video of my time here, hopefully I will make one and share it soon. Blessed to have such wonderful memories of my time here. Okay, we have reached this journey’s interval.

Here's a self portrait of our brand team

Looking forward to all of you being a part in the rest of this story :)Thank you,ArjunMan Matters,Ex Mosaic Wellness.
