What if “work-life balance” was never the goal? In this episode of The UnTitled Show, AI Consultant Jayanth Kolla (Founder & Partner at Convergence Catalyst and author of AI Rising) takes us through his 25-year journey from the telecom industry to becoming a leading AI consultant — and the mindset that made it all possible.
Jayanth shares how he built a career rooted in authentic passion and raw curiosity, rather than chasing titles or paychecks. With no MBA to his name, he forged his path by learning on the job, developing a genuine love for the work, and redefining success beyond monetary gain. For him, work isn’t something to balance with life — it’s part of life itself. 
From the power of long-term vision (yes, he had a 25-year plan at 19!) to the reality of consulting as a career, this episode is packed with insights for anyone looking to realize their ambition and potential. If you’ve ever questioned the cost of chasing success or wondered how to craft a career that truly feels like “living,” Jayanth’s story will leave you thinking differently.
Tune in for a raw, honest, and eye-opening look at how to succeed at work, life, and all things in between!
