What happens when someone inside the system begins to question its foundations? In this episode, we hear from a psychiatrist who spent decades working within traditional mental health care, only to discover that the answers he was seeking couldn’t be found in diagnoses or prescriptions. His story is one of reimagining what healing can look like when we move toward human-centered ways of understanding ourselves.
We explore how creativity, connection, and honest conversation can become powerful tools for growth. This episode invites us to consider what’s possible when we allow space for full self-expression and begin to trust our own experiences as valid. It’s a deeply personal journey that challenges the status quo and opens new paths for how we think about mental health care.
