In a world where everyone wants to be heard, Abhishek Vyas chose to listen first.
He didn’t start his podcast journey with millions of followers or viral content. He started with stories – raw, real, and deeply personal. Stories of failure, grit, and chasing dreams when nothing seemed certain. And that’s what made people stay.
The Man Behind the Mic
Born in Bhilwara, Rajasthan, Abhishek Vyas had a middle-class upbringing like many others. But what set him apart was his restlessness—the kind that doesn’t settle for average. After finishing his B.Tech and MBA, he dabbled in everything: jobs, entrepreneurship, even the idea of selling Maggie in Manali just to get by.
The turning point came in 2018 when he co-founded My Haul Store with just Rs 1.82 lakh—most of it borrowed. He was left with Rs 7,000 in his bank account and a mountain of hope. It was a risk most wouldn’t take. But he did. And it worked.
Today, My Haul Store is a thriving platform connecting over 1 lakh influencers with 100+ brands across India. But Abhishek Vyas’s biggest success isn’t just numbers—it’s connection. The kind he now brings to thousands through his two YouTube channels:
Why He Started Podcasting?
After years of failures—nine failed businesses to be exact—Abhishek Vyas understood something most creators miss: People don’t connect with perfection. They connect with struggle.
So when he started podcasting, he didn’t try to sound like a guru. He spoke like a friend. A fellow dreamer. A guy who’s seen rock bottom and still chose to rise. His shows don’t glorify hustle culture—they honour the courage it takes to just keep going.
Whether he’s talking to startup founders, creators, or everyday hustlers, his focus is always clear: value over vanity. And that’s why his audience trusts him.

The Power of Relatable Content
Building a podcast community isn’t about clever thumbnails or viral reels—it’s about resonance.
Abhishek’s podcasts work because they feel real. He doesn’t chase trends; he chases truth. His audience knows when they press play, they’re going to hear stories that reflect their own—stories of risks, rejection, rebuilding, and rising again.
It’s not unusual to find someone saying, “I saw myself in that episode.” And that’s the magic. In every conversation, Abhishek Vyas brings vulnerability to the table—not just from his guests, but from himself too.
From Listeners to Loyalists
It wasn’t overnight. There were no shortcuts.
Abhishek spent years learning what makes people care. It’s not the perfect mic or studio (though he now owns one)—it’s consistency, care, and curiosity.
He interacts with his community often. Read the comments. Asks for feedback. And most importantly, he makes people feel seen. That’s rare in the world of content overload.
Through The Founder’s Dream, he celebrates the spirit of entrepreneurship—not just the wins, but the grind behind them. Through The Powerful Humans, he dives deep into mindset, purpose, and identity.
Each episode is more than just content—it’s a conversation that stays with you long after it ends.
What Makes Him Unique
Authenticity: No sugarcoating. Just real stories.
Empathy: Every inquiry comes from a need to understand rather than only impress.
Every statement reflects his mission: to empower people, advance education, and fight for a better, corruption-free India.
Consistency: Week after week, he arrives with the same enthusiasm, whether he is interviewing an underdog or a leading founder.
The Bigger Picture
For Abhishek, being famous isn’t the goal of podcasting. Impact is the key. It’s about establishing an environment where people feel seen, heard, and motivated to take action, even if it’s just one tiny step.
His journey from thinking about driving a cab to being a well-known voice in India’s entrepreneurial community serves as a reminder that perseverance, not luck, is what drives success.
