In this episode of *We Are Listening*, Pulkit sits down with Eric, a master’s level Canadian Certified Counsellor with 16 years of experience in mental wellness, to explore trauma, resilience, addiction recovery, emotional regulation, and the power of taking agency in one’s healing journey.
Eric shares how his background in martial arts shaped his understanding of balance, self-control, awareness, and recovery. He also discusses his books, *The Martial Art of Recovery* and *Buried Alive*, and explains how concepts from martial arts, spirituality, community, and self-reflection can help people navigate emotional pain, uncertainty, shame, and burnout.
The conversation dives into practical tools for managing difficult emotions, including Eric’s CIA approach: curiosity, introspection, and agency. Pulkit and Eric also discuss the importance of peer support groups, healthy boundaries, communication in relationships, spirituality, and the difference between truly supporting others and unintentionally competing over pain.
This episode is a thoughtful reminder that healing is not a one-time project but an ongoing process. Whether you are dealing with trauma, uncertainty, addiction, emotional overwhelm, or simply trying to understand yourself better, this conversation offers grounded insights and compassionate guidance for taking the next step forward.

What if being “rich” had far less to do with your bank balance—and everything to do with how deeply alive, fulfilled, and energetically aligned you feel every single day?
So many of us are taught to chase prosperity through productivity, sacrifice, and constant hustle. We build careers, care for families, show up for others, and keep pushing forward—often believing that exhaustion is simply the price of success. But what if burnout, emotional depletion, and feeling stuck are actually signs that something deeper needs healing?
In this powerful conversation on We are Listening!, Pulkit Garg sits down with Jackie Cowie—mentor, healer, and oracular activist—to unpack what true prosperity really means beyond money. Jackie shares her profound wisdom on creating abundance not just financially, but through time freedom, emotional wellbeing, inner aliveness, and sustainable energy.
Together, they dive into the survival loops that quietly sabotage growth—patterns rooted in fear, overgiving, guilt, nervous system overwhelm, and conditioning that often keeps people trapped in depletion instead of expansion. Jackie explores how these invisible cycles can shape the way we work, receive, rest, and build relationships.
The conversation also takes a deeply human turn as they discuss the challenge of balancing family, personal wellbeing, and a larger life mission—without constantly sacrificing yourself in the process. For caregivers, entrepreneurs, high-achievers, and anyone trying to hold multiple responsibilities while staying emotionally grounded, this episode offers meaningful perspective and reflection.
This isn’t just a conversation about wealth. It’s about sovereignty. It’s about learning how to honour your body, protect your energy, create healthier boundaries, and redefine success in a way that feels aligned and sustainable.
If you’ve ever felt emotionally drained while trying to do it all, this episode may help you pause, reflect, and ask: What does true prosperity really look like for me?
Tune in and listen deeply. Sometimes healing begins with one honest conversation.

We often call it “just nervousness.”
But what if it’s something deeper?
In this episode of We Are Listening, Pulkit Garg sits down with Brian to unpack the reality of anxiety that many of us silently experience.
From feeling constantly on edge as a teenager to facing panic attacks in real-life situations, Brian shares how anxiety slowly took control and how he spent years understanding and managing it.
This conversation dives into the difference between normal nervousness and overwhelming anxiety, the pressure of dealing with emotions alone, and the journey of turning personal struggles into something meaningful.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in your own thoughts this episode will feel deeply relatable.

In this insightful episode, we explore the intersection of inclusion, neurodiversity, and parenting with psychologist and inclusion specialist Nisha Grover.
The conversation breaks down complex topics like learning disabilities, ADHD, and autism into simple, practical understanding while also highlighting the realities faced by parents, schools, and corporates in building truly inclusive environments.
From identifying early signs in children to understanding gaps in education systems and workplaces, this episode brings real-life perspectives and actionable insights. It also touches on mental health, the importance of slowing down, and how small lifestyle changes can create long-term impact.
A must-listen for parents, educators, professionals, and anyone looking to better understand inclusion beyond just a concept.

What if the thoughts overwhelming you aren’t meant to be suppressed… but expressed?
In this deeply reflective episode, we explore the emotional weight many of us carry confusion, anxiety, overthinking, and the constant mental noise that often leaves us feeling drained. Instead of navigating these emotions, we tend to spiral deeper, consuming content that amplifies our stress rather than resolving it.
This conversation shifts the focus toward self-expression as a tool for healing.
Joined by Lisa Kovila, a Finnish-Canadian author, memoir coach, and creative writing expert, we dive into the transformative power of writing, journaling, and creative expression. From personal experiences of emotional overwhelm to rediscovering clarity through structured thought, this episode highlights how simple practices like writing can help reclaim control over your inner world.
We also explore:
The emotional depth of being highly empatheticThe fine line between supporting others and losing yourselfThe courage it takes to set boundaries in relationshipsWhy self-expression (writing, art, movement) is essential for emotional releaseHow small, consistent actions can rebuild strength and clarityThis is not a prescriptive guide, but a perspective-driven conversation designed to help you pause, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.
If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to process your emotions, this episode is a reminder:
You’re not alone and expression might be your way forward.

What does it take to rebuild your life after losing everything you worked for?
In this deeply moving episode, we hear the story of Aaron “The Running Servant,” whose journey from extreme weight gain to becoming an ultra-runner is nothing short of extraordinary. What began as a simple decision to walk to work soon turned into a powerful transformation that helped him lose over 100 pounds and rediscover his strength.
But just as life seemed to be moving in the right direction, Aaron’s world changed overnight when he survived a workplace shooting while saving his coworkers. The physical injuries, combined with PTSD and years of emotional and psychological battles, pushed him into one of the toughest chapters of his life.
Yet, Aaron’s story is not about defeat it’s about resilience.
In this conversation, he opens up about rebuilding his health, navigating trauma, and learning that fitness alone cannot heal the mind. True recovery, he explains, requires community, faith, mental health support, and the courage to keep moving forward even when the path is uncertain.
Today, Aaron runs not just for himself but for a larger purpose, inspiring others to turn pain into purpose and reminding us that even the darkest moments can reveal the strength within us.
This episode is a powerful reminder that transformation does not begin with giant leaps it often starts with one small step.

What if the most overworked organ in your body isn’t your brain but your eyes?
Lights off. Screen on. One last reel before bed. One notification before sunrise. In this deeply relevant conversation, Pulkit Garg sits down with Dr. Priethikka M S, ophthalmologist and MBA candidate to explore how modern habits are quietly reshaping our vision, health, and even our organisational cultures.
From debunking blue light myths to explaining why power numbers can vary between eye check-ups, Dr. Priethikka breaks down the science behind screen fatigue, dry eyes, accommodative strain, and why the 20-20 rule matters more than we think. She also highlights the overlooked danger of diabetic retinopathy — especially in a country often called the diabetes capital of the world.
The conversation goes beyond individual habits and into systems — exploring the inspiring model of Aravind Eye Care, a 50-year-old institution built on the vision of making quality eye care affordable and accessible. From manufacturing lenses locally to redefining patient-first culture, Aravind becomes a case study in how values shape healthcare outcomes.
The episode also connects diet, hydration, workplace culture, and preventive check-ups to long-term eye health — reminding us that healing begins in awareness, not crisis.
If you’ve ever ignored dryness, dismissed fluctuating eye power, or scrolled in the dark this conversation might change the way you see health.
Because at the end of the day, healing doesn’t begin in emergencies.
It begins with noticing.

What happens when a simple headache search turns into a “worst-case diagnosis”?
In today’s world of infinite information, the real challenge isn’t finding health content, it’s knowing what to trust, what to ignore, and what to take back to your doctor.
In this episode, Pulkit sits down with Dr. Aparajita Praharaj De, who works at the intersection of science, clinical evidence, and digital healthcare communication.
With a unique lens shaped by years as a clinician and her current work in medical affairs, Dr. Aparajita breaks down one big question in plain language: What exactly is “medical affairs,” and why does it matter more than ever post-COVID?
Together, we explore how digitalization has improved access to medical information but also created an ocean of noise through social media, misinformation, and overconfident AI responses. Dr. Aparajita explains how medical affairs helps bridge the gap between clinical trial evidence and real-world clinician practice by simplifying complex data, supporting the design of studies, enabling peer-to-peer scientific dialogue, and helping clinicians stay aligned with evolving guidelines.
We also dive into the idea of Human + AI partnership in healthcare: AI can be an enabler, a filter, and a reference point but it can’t replace clinical judgement. The real power lies in using AI responsibly, checking credible sources, and having open conversations with your doctor instead of self-diagnosing.
This conversation is not medical advice, it’s a perspective-driven discussion to help you navigate healthcare more responsibly.

What happens when life puts you in a position where doing the right thing feels emotionally impossible?
In this episode of We Are Listening!, the conversation begins not with answers but with a dilemma. Inspired by the battlefield of the Mahabharat, where Arjun stands torn between duty and family, host Pulkit Garg and spiritual content creator Anshul Chuglani explore what this inner war looks like in modern life.
From career uncertainty and family expectations to love, loss, faith, and fear this episode gently unpacks how ancient wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita continues to speak to today’s emotional and mental struggles.
Anshul shares his personal journey from a small town to content creation, his shift from humour to deeper spiritual reflection, and how “Gita for Life” was born not as a self-help formula, but as lived experience. Together, Pulkit and Anshul discuss why spirituality isn’t about escaping life, but learning how to stand firmly within it.
The episode dives deep into questions many hesitate to ask:
Is destiny already written, or does karma truly shape our future?Does naam jap really transform life or is it misunderstood as a shortcut?How do intention, patience, and preparation shape success especially when nothing seems to move?What does acceptance mean in love, breakups, resentment, and new beginnings?Through stories of entrepreneurship, failure, waiting, faith, and surrender, the conversation reminds us that growth is rarely instant and that preparation is never wasted.
The episode closes with a powerful reflection on introspection, mental health, and seeking support reminding listeners that healing doesn’t always come from having answers, but from being heard.
If you’re navigating stress, anxiety, family pressure, or emotional confusion, this conversation might feel uncomfortably familiar and deeply grounding at the same time.

What if the real secret to feeling younger wasn’t anti-aging creams, supplements, or 5 a.m. gym routines…
but simply understanding the story your body is trying to tell you?
In this power-packed conversation on We Are Listening!, host Pulkit Garg sits down with Benjamin Richardson, a UK-based Nutritional Therapy Practitioner known for blending science, functional medicine, and real-world lived experience. From London’s winter haze to Delhi’s urban chaos, this episode bridges two worlds struggling with the same enemy: polluted air, processed food, stress-heavy lifestyles, and declining male health.
Benjamin—an athlete, quantified-self experimenter, and expert in male hormones, body composition, gut health, IBS, and muscle-centric medicine, breaks down today’s biggest wellness puzzles with clarity:
Why HEALTHSPAN now matters more than lifespan?How air quality silently shapes your vitality?The truth about sugar, its forms, myths & metabolic chaosTestosterone decline in men: lifestyle, diet & missing conversationsGut health, inflammation & their deep link to hormonal functionWhat’s harming your energy, libido, sleep & emotional state and how to reverse it?Why movement beats exercise, and why consistency beats intensity?Pulkit also shares raw personal anecdotes—burnout, breathlessness, lifestyle resets, and the simple 15-minute habit that rebuilt his energy after years of chaos.
Together, they explore practical tools: circadian alignment, food planning, frozen vs fresh myths, cooking skills, batch prepping, sugar resets, movement “snacks,” long-term habit sequencing, and how to build a relationship with your future self.
If you’ve ever felt tired despite sleeping well, confused about nutrition trends, or concerned about hormonal changes—this conversation will feel like a breath of clean air.

What if the real problem in love isn’t lack of effort, it’s following the wrong playbook? In this energizing, no-fluff conversation, host Pulkit Garg (Founder, Aanya Wellness) sits down with Monica Tanner—RLT-trained Relationship Coach and host of Secrets of Happily Ever After: to challenge the clichés that quietly drain intimacy and joy.
Monica calls marriage a “people-growing machine”—powerful, a little scary, and absolutely worth it. Together, we unpack why popular advice like “compromise,” “never go to bed angry,” “happy wife, happy life,” and “find someone who completes you” can backfire, leading to scorekeeping, resentment, and distance. Instead, Monica lays out how to shift from compromise to collaboration: getting curious about each other’s positions, naming real needs, and co-creating solutions neither partner could reach alone.
Monica calls marriage a “people-growing machine.” Together, they explore:
Why the idea that someone will complete you quietly sabotages real intimacyHow Bollywood, Hollywood, patriarchy, and “happy wife, happy life” have warped our expectationsThe difference between compromise (often lazy, resentment-building) and collaboration (curious, courageous, co-creative)How to move from scorekeeping and blame to “happy spouse, happy house”Why it’s essential to talk about sexual expectations and compatibility — even in cultures where it’s tabooWhat healthy, growth-oriented partnership looks like in arranged, love, and modern DINK-style marriagesWhether you’re dating, newly married, or decades in, this episode offers mindset shifts and simple scripts to replace roommate syndrome with real connection. Expect humor, real-world examples, and a fresh vision of partnership where two whole people build a life that feels expansive—together.
Guest bio: Monica Tanner is an RLT-trained Relationship Coach and author of Bad Marriage Advice. Through her podcast, coaching, and vibrant community, she helps couples ditch resentment and rebuild communication, connection, conflict resolution, and commitment.

Ever wondered what it really takes to leave behind a stable paycheck and dive headfirst into the unpredictable world of startups? In this candid and deeply insightful episode of We Are Listening!, host Pulkit Garg sits down with Abhishek Sengupta, Founder of HotelTravelia, to unpack the unfiltered realities of entrepreneurship, from emotional turbulence to mental resilience.
Abhishek, who transitioned from the world of hotel management to building his own tours and travel venture, opens up about navigating early setbacks, facing rejection, and rebuilding trust from the ground up. He shares why “people don’t buy your product, they buy the trust they have in you,” and how he learned to keep that trust alive even when business hit rock bottom.
The duo explores the delicate balance between financial planning and emotional preparedness, the myth behind “burning the boat,” and how to manage difficult clients and stakeholders without losing your sanity. Abhishek’s stories from the hospitality and travel industries shine a light on the power of patience, empathy, and strategic communication, especially when 90% of life (and business) is beyond your control.
This episode is not just for entrepreneurs, it’s for anyone navigating uncertainty, battling self-doubt, or learning to bounce back after failure. Abhishek’s closing thoughts on mental and physical health, reading, and mindfulness are a reminder that success means nothing if wellness takes a back seat.

What if the bravest words you speak this week are just: “I need help”?
In this candid conversation on We Are Listening! with host Pulkit Garg, retired RCMP officer turned international mentor and best-selling author Doug Lawrence opens up about PTSD, losing his wife, and why empathy—and access to real support—can change the arc of a life and a workplace.
Doug unpacks how grief quietly disrupts focus, memory, decision-making, and team dynamics, and why pressuring people to “move on” backfires. We explore why grief doesn’t follow a neat timeline, how each person’s pace is different, and the subtle signs that a hard season is tipping into prolonged depression or burnout.
You’ll hear Doug’s frontline stories: the cost of inadequate debriefs for first responders, the loneliness many in uniform carry home, and the simple check-ins that can save someone from spiraling. He also introduces the emerging role of a grief mentor—a non-clinical bridge between therapy sessions—offering presence, confidentiality, and judgment-free support when it’s needed most.
Then we shift to business: Doug clarifies mentoring vs. coaching (development vs. performance repair), and shows how mentoring works best when implemented to solve real problems—attrition, skill gaps, disengagement—while rebuilding psychological safety. For entrepreneurs, he shares lessons from programs like ACP and Branson’s Caribbean initiative, and why founder mental health is mission-critical.
If you’ve lost someone, lead a team, wear a uniform, or are building something under pressure, this episode will meet you where you are—with empathy and actionable ideas.

What happens when the very place you seek healing becomes the cage that breaks you?
In this powerful and deeply human episode of We Are Listening, host Pulkit Garg, Founder of Aanya Wellness, sits down with Isabella Young—a woman whose journey through trauma, loss, and awakening redefines what it means to heal and reclaim freedom.
Seventeen years ago, Isabella escaped from a messianic cult after enduring unimaginable emotional and spiritual abuse, and the devastating loss of her son. Raised in an atheist household that dismissed faith as weakness, Isabella’s search for meaning led her into the arms of a spiritual leader who promised enlightenment—but delivered control, manipulation, and psychological imprisonment instead.
In this unfiltered conversation, Isabella takes us through the chilling realities of cult programming, the invisible chains of mind control, and the lifelong process of rebuilding self-trust. She shares how nature, meditation, and what she calls “expanding consciousness” became her lifelines to reclaim sovereignty over her mind, body, and spirit.
From identifying red flags in controlling relationships to helping loved ones recognize cult-like behaviors, Isabella’s insights are a wake-up call for anyone navigating spiritual spaces or searching for belonging in a noisy, complex world.
The episode also explores her book, New Human of New Earth, where she bridges ancient Lemurian wisdom with modern healing practices—inviting listeners to step into their divine humanity and reconnect with the Earth.
This is not just a story of survival—it’s an invitation to awaken.
If you’ve ever questioned your beliefs, struggled with self-doubt, or felt trapped by invisible systems of control, this episode reminds you that healing begins when you choose awareness.

Ever found yourself lying awake at night, replaying conversations that never happened or imagining worst-case scenarios that don’t exist? Welcome to the club—we call it worry. And let’s be honest, it’s one of humanity’s favorite pastimes.
In this episode of We Are Listening!, host Pulkit Garg sits down with Michael Kohan, an ICF Certified Life Coach, to break down three life-changing themes: why we worry and how to stop, mastering emotional intelligence, and reframing self-criticism.
Michael shares his own bold journey of leaving a high-paying career in New York real estate to follow a spiritual path that led him to yoga, coaching, and eventually founding The Elevate Life Project. Along the way, he’s navigated external judgment, financial uncertainty, and the pitfalls of perfectionism—and he’s here to share what truly works when life feels overwhelming.
From the dangers of maladaptive perfectionism to the constant trap of social comparison, Michael explains how self-criticism can either serve as a compass for growth or a cage that keeps us stuck. He draws a clear line between self-confidence and self-esteem, and shows us why building inner worth is more reliable than chasing external trophies.
Expect raw truths: life is hard, money does drive worry, and social media amplifies negativity. But also expect empowering solutions—how to view worry as a “check engine light,” how emotional intelligence differentiates coaches (and humans), and how resilience comes from balancing both the shadow and the light within us.
If you’ve ever struggled with overthinking, self-doubt, or the pressure to “have it all,” this conversation will give you both clarity and comfort.

What if talking about your problems isn’t enough to heal them?
In this powerful conversation, host Pulkit Garg, Founder of Aanya Wellness, sits down with internationally sought-after psychotherapist Tammy Valicenti to explore why traditional talk therapy often falls short—and what you can do about it.
Tammy, the creator of Transformation Solution™ (a synthesis of EMDR, IFS, and other evidence-based therapies), shares how trauma and emotional pain are not just “in the mind,” but stored deep in the body. Together, they uncover why inviting the body into the healing conversation is critical for lasting transformation.
From exploring gender stereotypes and emotional expression, to understanding the impact of nuclear families and digitalization on children, this discussion goes far beyond clinical definitions. Tammy explains how emotions suppressed due to societal expectations often manifest as physical illness, and why reconnection—with ourselves, others, and even nature—is vital.
The episode also demystifies EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy: what it is, how it works, and why it has been called a game-changer for trauma recovery, PTSD, phobias, and even entrepreneurial burnout. Tammy offers practical insights on self-awareness, body-centered healing, and rebuilding trust after trauma.
Whether you’re struggling with stress, navigating trauma, or simply curious about new approaches to mental health, this episode will leave you reflecting, questioning, and—most importantly—empowered to take the next step in your healing journey.

In this transformative episode of We Are Listening!, host Pulkit Garg is joined by Coach Viren Verma, a subconscious alignment coach and energy healer, who brings a deeply personal and spiritual perspective to emotional healing, heartbreak, and soulful self-awareness.
Coach Viren opens up about his own experiences with loss, betrayal, and disconnection — and how those moments became catalysts for embracing powerful tools like inner child healing, chakra alignment, and subconscious reprogramming. Through this journey, he discovered that healing isn’t about chasing a version of ourselves we think we should be — it’s about realigning with the self we’ve always been.
Together, Pulkit and Viren explore how unresolved emotional patterns, trauma-driven decisions, and attachment-seeking behaviors often keep people stuck in cycles of pain. They demystify concepts like manifestation and intuition, while inviting listeners to tune into their own energy systems and listen to their wounds without judgment. From journaling and mirror work to the power of Ho’oponopono and energetic alignment, the episode offers a wealth of grounded, practical insights.
Coach Viren reminds us that healing is not a linear path — it’s layered, emotional, and fundamentally about becoming whole. He shares how the disconnect between our conscious, subconscious, and unconscious minds creates emotional noise that can block love, joy, and purpose. But with compassionate awareness and simple practices, clarity returns.
Whether you’re juggling responsibilities, struggling with anxiety, or seeking a practical path to peace, this episode is your roadmap to navigating life with more balance, emotional freedom, and spiritual alignment.
