Apoorva Dixit: The Power of Remembrance

Apoorva Dixit and I discuss her journey creating the podcast They Knew Which Way To Run. Created and hosted by Apoorva Dixit and Molly Mulroy, the limited podcast series is a recount of the Bhopal gas tragedy from the perspective of local survivors. We speak on the lessons she learned about developing relationships, perspectives on goal-setting, and the power of remembrance.

Joshua Jones: Being Aware of Being Aware and Entering Flow

Josh and I talk about expressing ourselves on social media. How do we, in our own journeys, practice being genuine and meaningful in our interactions (both through social media and in person)? Josh is one of the most skilled people, in my opinion, at recognizing when the instagram posting and upkeep is becoming just another exercise in vanity. At my selfish request, Josh also offers a short book list - sources of knowledge that he has visited and revisited to better his mindfulness practice.

Ranjit Ganguly, MD: Combatting Physician Burnout, Making Room For Wellness, and Focusing on the Few

Dr. Ranjit Ganguly and I talk about what physician burnout is (or burnout, generally), how it might be experienced, and methods to combat it. Dr. Ganguly discusses his healthy habits and how he has incorporated them into a wellness routine in three pillars: Prioritization of Wellness, Management of Stress, and Saying "No." If you enjoy Grounds for Conversation, are piqued by a particular segment of the conversation, or simply want to discuss any of the topics further, feel free to reach out to email provided below.

Demi Dong: Adulthood Part 1

My college friend and soon-to-be colleague Demi Dong sits with me to discuss setting up daily systems that encourage motivation, what helped her eliminate the feeling of FOMO, and the subsequent positive consequences. Demi and I regularly have chats of similar cadence and relevance over a glass of wine on girls night, but we brought it to the podcast this week.

Armando Echeverria: Reflections

I dig through the archives with Armando Echeverria.  Armando is a professional golf coach, currently based in Miami, FL . In the spirit of learning something new through each conversation, we take the opportunity to study our ups and downs in the nearly 11-year relationship we share as Coach and Player. This episode is particularly reflective for me, as we deliberate on our mindfulness journeys, the competitive golf landscape for young athletes, and the rationale for opportunities gained and lost in those years.   If you enjoy Grounds for Conversation, are piqued by a particular segment of the conversation, or simply want to discuss any of the topics further, feel free to reach out to email provided below.
