About this listen

 These are unscripted, immersive, evocative, uncomfortable explorations into the topics, deep thinking, and desires that we all experience. These conversations invite insight and discovery, more questioning, challenges to embrace, intimacy to be shared, and healing. The first series: voices exploring Where Renewal Lives Our interviews are with individuals who went through medical school and residency. Their journeys reveal the impact of traditional and outdated institutional methodologies on their humanity and integrity. The deeper narrative, however, is shared by all of us: how do we choose personal courage and resilience to heal and renew ourselves? As the podcast sessions unfold, we will delve into many subjects that illuminate both the challenges and opportunities to live authentically and robustly.Copyright 2023 All rights reserved.

    In this episode we share a conversation with Dr. Bahar, an Internal Medicine attending physician.

    "I was lying to myself for a long time about how my experiences affected me. There were a lot of experiences that deeply hurt me - that caused me a lot of pain. I was never honest with myself about how they affected me. And when I was honest with myself, I felt so light. I felt this unloading - I can't believe I've been lying to myself this whole time. What a heavy energy to carry around. And when you're lying to yourself - the heaviness that you feel - the people around you feel it too"

    The song for this episode with Dr. Bahar is: Tool - Lateralus
