Discover how Sangeeta, an inspiring author and PR agent, found her life’s mission through the legacy of her mother’s compassion. Her heartfelt journey, influenced by her mother’s selfless service in Indian hospitals, will pull you into a narrative that bridges personal values with global action. Through her latest book, Sangeeta brings forward the voices of 36 global change-makers, urging us all to consider the lasting impacts of our actions on both the planet and future generations.

As the conversation unfolds, we explore the essential role ethics must play in shaping our technological future, especially in the realm of artificial intelligence. This episode challenges us to reflect on the erosion of ethical values in a society increasingly influenced by social media and dwindling visionary leadership. Drawing wisdom from historical figures and great artists, we ponder the scarcity of enduring guidance in modern times and discuss how reviving values of service and integrity might inspire a more compassionate world.

The dialogue also celebrates the power of authenticity and self-discovery as keys to personal growth. With a focus on standing firmly in one’s truth and embracing self-doubt as a tool for grounding, we explore the courage required to challenge ourselves and break through limitations. From the empowering concept of the “warrior spirit” to the beauty of continuous learning, join us to uncover how personal transformation is not just a possibility, but a journey we are all capable of embarking on.

Slay Your Dragons Podcast

To become equal to the dream sewn within us, our heart must break open and usually must break more than once. That’s why they say that the only heart worth having is a broken heart. For only in breaking can it open fully and reveal what is hidden within.” – Michael Meade

This is a series of podcasts based on the premise explored in Malcolm Stern’s acclaimed book of the same name, that adversity provides us with the capacity to develop previously unexplored depths and is , in effect , a crucible for self reflection and awareness. Malcolm lost his daughter Melissa to suicide in 2014. It slowly dawned on him over the following few years that he was being educated and an opportunity was being presented where new insights helped him forge a path through his grief and despair. As part of that cathartic journey, he wrote “ Slay Your Dragons with Compassion ( Watkins 2020 ) where he was able to describe some of the practices that had helped him shed light on a way through the darkness.
