I thought I was a good listener.

Turns out, I was just waiting for my turn to talk.

And honestly… that realization hurt.

I sat down with Mr. Purvesh Sharma, a transformational communication course leader at Landmark Worldwide, and this conversation quietly dismantled everything I thought I knew about listening, connection, and being present with another human being.

What we call “listening” is often just noise in the background, judging, planning, defending, rehearsing.

Rarely presence. Rarely openness. Rarely courage.

Purvesh shares why most of us have never truly listened,not even to the people we love most and how that silent gap is where relationships slowly die.

One story stayed with me: a divorced couple attended his workshop, and by the end of the weekend, chose to remarry.

Not because they fixed each other.

But because, for the first time in years, they actually heard each other.

This isn’t about communication techniques.

It’s about dropping the armor.

Letting the mind soften.

And allowing another person to exist without interruption.

If your relationships feel stuck, your conversations feel empty, or your leadership feels performative, this conversation isn’t comfortable.

But it’s honest.

And sometimes, honesty is the beginning of real connection.

Many people today are searching for healing, peace, and answers — but want them instantly. When results do not come quickly, frustration, self blame, and restlessness begin to grow.

In this deeply reflective conversation, Sujata Malik, an intuitive emotional and spiritual healer, shares her perspective on why modern generations, especially Gen Z, struggle with healing, emotional regulation, and inner stability. The discussion looks beyond quick fixes to explore energy alignment, personal responsibility, and the unseen patterns that shape our lives.

This episode is not about promising miracles or dismissing science. It is about understanding how emotional pain, unresolved trauma, and ancestral memory quietly influence our relationships, health, and sense of identity — often without our awareness.

What you will learn in this episode:
:: Why healing does not happen on demand and the role of divine timing
:: Why instant solutions often deepen emotional exhaustion
:: How misaligned energy creates repeating life and relationship patterns
:: Why taking responsibility is essential for true emotional healing
:: How unresolved emotions continue to drain mental and emotional energy
:: The impact of technology and constant stimulation on anxiety and restlessness
:: How ancestral trauma passes through generations and shapes present struggles
:: Why many emotional wounds did not start with you
:: How real life healing experiences challenge what we believe is possible
:: Simple grounding practices that bring clarity and inner balance

This conversation invites you to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with a deeper understanding of healing, one rooted in awareness, patience, and truth.

Millions walk the sacred paths of Chardham seeking salvation but few are prepared for what the mountains demand in return.

In the shadow of Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri, high-altitude sickness, hypothermia, heart attacks, and failed evacuations silently claim lives every year.

This documentary-style episode features Dr. Reddy, an ex-military doctor from Vivekananda Health Mission, who built 7 lifeline hospitals after the 2013 Uttarakhand disaster — including 3 free hospitals at Kedarnath, Badrinath, and Gangotri.

With 150+ doctors and 500–700 medical staff, they fight impossible odds:
* Oxygen deprivation
* Sudden cardiac emergencies
* Landslides & road collapses
* Delayed helicopter evacuations
* Coordination failures during peak Yatra season

Hard truth:
Fitness alone won’t save you. Faith needs preparation.

If you or your family are planning Chardham Yatra, this video can save a life.

Share this with pilgrims, seniors, and group leaders.
The mountains don’t forgive unprepared journeys.
