This topic is based on the legendary AviTV's youtube video, "Is there enough success for us all?"
We talk about the scarcity and abundance mindset. Mital and Simran talk about their experiences growing up and thinking about success, and their differing experiences in finance vs. medicine. We talk about living true to our values and the influence of social media on how we view success.

My first solo episode! I talk about what exactly is the internal dialogue? What are the different approaches that we can take - what do the books say?
4 key takeaways:
1. The science behind practicing gratitude
2. Optimising your environment- physical and virtual
3. Improve the quality of the questions you ask yourself.
4. Create your own troubleshooting algorithm
Neat little ideas:
Rose-bud-thorn
Write letters to people you are grateful for
Quotes on the wall to prime your mind
Clearing your virtual space might clear your head
Catch the questions you ask yourself, how can I change it?

Today, I am joined by Selina Goyal who sadly experienced baby loss 6 months ago. She has come on the podcast to break the silence on talking about baby loss- an experience that is more commonly experienced than we like to acknowledge.
We cover why baby loss is different from other losses. Why is it difficult to talk about? Helpful and unhelpful things to say to bereaved parents. Selina shares advice she has for other bereaved parents and healthcare professionals when breaking bad news.

In this episode I am joined by two of my best friends from University. None of us are ready to have kids yet, but despite this decided to explore the list that Sony has written, "Lessons to my future child". Anoop and I chip in with our honest take on the lessons, drawing from our own life experiences covering themes of kindness, success and failures, and love.
We deep dive into some of our "failures" and talk about what our definition of love might be.
Anoop and Sony both study medicine with me at Cambridge University. Sony studied psychology with me in her third year and hopes to perfect latté art in the near future. Anoop has aspirations to be a cardiothoracic surgeon.

Key lessons
Be kind and don't expect anything back
Be kind and be happy because they are happy, not because you are the one that has helped them.
Be kind and when someone is unkind, understand that they might not have had the same privileged upbringing that might motivate them be kind.
Celebrate the successes of others as if they were your own
Take pride in your failures, as well as your success. [write a failure CV]
When you succeed, remember that whilst you worked hard you started with privilege denied to other people. Take pride in your achievements, but not arrogance. Be humble.
Change is important: nostalgia is comforting but change is stimulating and energising so accept it with an open mind.
Speak up when things don't sit right: you're never small enough to make a difference.
Love people not things.
Love without wanting to be loved back. Love people for who they are and not what they want them to be.
Reach out to people: appreciate people's work, their presence and give meaningful compliments.
Don't take life too seriously and take each day as it comes.
Listening: react and judge the words not source of the words because good advice can come from anywhere.
Experience the masterpieces that life has to offer but don't pretend to enjoy them just to fit in.
Life is a pie: diversify and have many different slices.

In the first episode of this podcast we think about the topic of indulgence. What exactly is it? The discussion led us to think about how the concept of flow ties in. By the end we conclude to think about indulgence in a very different way from when we began.
