Dr Rupy Aujla on discovering that every challenge is an opportunity Therapy Works
-
- Mental Health
This is an episode about change, and showing how even change that we want and choose can be hard to process.
The wonderful Dr Rupy Ajula is a well known Doctor who founded The Doctors Kitchen and believes that food is a powerful medicine. He has succeeded in life because of his innate warmth and genuine intent to make the world a better place. He talked to me about the challenge of moving from being a practising Doctor in the NHS to being an entrepreneur and businessman.
In this conversation you will hear about:
- How tricky it can be to form a new identity and a new sense of legitimacy in a new role. Particularly if it presses your buttons of ‘How much am I allowed’ and when it challenges our values of what is ‘good.’
- The challenges of building a business that is in public view, and therefore open to the opinions of others. How hard it is to hold trust in one’s own purpose and meaning.
- Fascinating insights into what influences us as adults, is what has been modelled for us as a child.
-The strengths and particular nuances of being born a British Asian, how that influences him and inspires him to go forward, and yet his parents wish to protect him from the very risks they took.
- How developing our true self and finding our own identity; sometimes we have to go away in order to be able to come back.
- The amazing power of a gratitude practice. You will hear how this simple practice has shaped and supported Rupy to enable him to be the man he is today.
- How gratitude can influence you to reframe what is difficult or negative to something that brings an opportunity. Aligning trust as a guiding force – ‘even not right moves are right moves.’ Trust enables him to tap into his innate guiding force and find his path.
- Love is the strongest medicine; how love gives him strength being ‘Held by the hands of the people that love you.’
- We discuss the power of food, it is generative as a way of loving family, friends and neighbours. As well, of course as curative physically.
