    Here's What Works Like Magic If You Show Up Daily

    Tanushree Singh, our guest in this podcast is deeply grounded in science. The conversation with her go beyond the shiny surface of positive psychology to reveal the rigor beneath it. Tanushree walks us through why working on what’s right with us is neither denial nor toxic positivity — it’s preparation!   But how do we live better without pretending life is easy?  From learned helplessness to gratitude journals, from neuroplasticity to discipline, the podcast focuses on understanding yourself. About noticing patterns, questioning assumptions, and slowly rewiring how you relate to your thoughts, relationships, work, and sense of meaning. No hacks. Just honest curiosity, science-backed ideas, and conversations that stay with you long after they end. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Reach Out: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kindergarten.wisdom/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KindergartenWisdom Email: Kindergartenwisdom.kg@gmail.com -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hosts & Producers Vishnu Kaushal Jatin Juneja Producers Ayush Guha Tarkeshwar Singh Creative Director Shubhi Raina Creative Producer Riddhi Sahni Director of Photography Jatin Gohar Visual Design Aadya Jaiswal Editors Jatin Gohar Amrit Pratap Ranjan Illustrations Alisha Swain Social Media and Streaming Aarushi Anand Set-up Studio A2Z Interiors Equipment & Crew Sahil Films Production Coordinator Vaishnavi Sharma

    Foundations of Building a Healthy Brain | Stroke Expert Dr. Bindu Menon

    Stroke, Hypertension and the risks of modern lifestyle. Dr. Bindu Menon says that Sitting is the new smoking! In this powerful and deeply insightful episode, we sit down with Dr. Bindu Menon, senior neurologist, public health advocate, and founder of Neurology on Wheels, to explore what brain health truly means beyond IQ, intelligence, or medical tests. From stroke prevention and early warning signs to digital overload, sleep, stress, and lifestyle diseases, this conversation bridges medicine, society, and everyday life. Dr. Menon introduces a simple but transformative framework: Brain Health, Brain Reserve, and Brain Capital, explaining how daily habits in our 20s, 30s, and 40s shape resilience, recovery, creativity, and quality of life later on. Dr. Menon also shares her journey as a neurologist working across corporate hospitals and rural India, delivering care to underserved communities through mobile neurology clinics, awareness programs, and public health initiatives. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Reach Out: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kindergarten.wisdom/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KindergartenWisdom Email: Kindergartenwisdom.kg@gmail.com -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hosts & Producers Vishnu Kaushal Jatin Juneja Producers Ayush Guha Tarkeshwar Singh Creative Director Shubhi Raina Creative Producer Riddhi Sahni Director of Photography Jatin Gohar Visual Design Aadya Jaiswal Editors Jatin Gohar Amrit Pratap Ranjan Illustrations Alisha Swain Social Media and Streaming Aarushi Anand Set-up Studio A2Z Interiors Production Coordinator Vaishnavi Sharma Equipment & Crew Sahil Films

  3. Parents, Trauma & The Conversations We Avoid

    Parents, Trauma & The Conversations We Avoid

    Can kids heal their parents? Or is that a burden we were never meant to carry? In Episode 3, we sit down with Madhvi Juneja to explore one of the most uncomfortable and deeply personal questions of our time: the emotional role reversal between parents and children — and the trauma, silence, and responsibility that often come with it. This conversation unpacks how unhealed trauma shows up across generations, why parents often struggle to recognise their own emotional wounds, and how children become the first to notice patterns of fear, control, guilt, or emotional shutdown at home. We talk about why these conversations are so difficult to initiate, why confrontation often shuts parents down, and how healing requires safety — not correction. From understanding triggers and hypervigilance to recognising authority wounds, self-talk, and the body’s role in storing unresolved emotions, the episode breaks down how trauma lives on not just mentally, but physically and relationally. We also explore why labelling everything as trauma can block accountability, how judgement and rejection kill emotional space, and why vulnerability often has to be modelled — not demanded. This episode doesn’t offer easy answers or saviour narratives. It questions whether healing parents is even the right goal — and instead asks what responsibility, compassion, and boundaries really look like for children trying to break generational cycles. ⸻ Reach Out: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kindergarten.wisdom/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KindergartenWisdom Email: Kindergartenwisdom.kg@gmail.com ⸻ Hosts & Producers Vishnu Kaushal Jatin Juneja Producers Ayush Guha Tarkeshwar Singh Creative Director Shubhi Raina Creative Producer Riddhi Sahni Director of Photography Jatin Gohar Visual Design Aadya Jaiswal Editors Jatin Gohar Amrit Pratap Ranjan Illustrations Alisha Swain Social Media and Streaming Aarushi Anand Set-up Studio A2Z Interiors Equipment & Crew Sahil Films Production Coordinator Vaishnavi Sharma

    Break the trap of modern life addictions

    What if anxiety isn’t just a mental health problem? In Episode 2, we sit down with Dr. Sid Warrier to understand what’s really happening inside the body when we feel anxious, overwhelmed, distracted, or stuck. From heart rate variability and the autonomic nervous system to dopamine, motivation, and burnout, this conversation breaks down the science behind how we feel, without oversimplifying it. We talk about why anxiety shows up physically before it becomes mental, how movement, breathwork, and sleep regulate the nervous system, and why chasing constant dopamine hits leaves us feeling unfulfilled. The episode also explores how modern life and social media affect our reward systems, and how ancient frameworks like the Bhagavad Gita mirror what neuroscience explains today. This isn’t about quick fixes or positive thinking. It’s about understanding your biology and learning how to work with it. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Reach Out: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kindergarten.wisdom/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KindergartenWisdom Email: Kindergartenwisdom.kg@gmail.com -------------------------------------------------------------------- Hosts & Producers Vishnu Kaushal Jatin Juneja Producers Ayush Guha Tarkeshwar Singh Creative Director Shubhi Raina Creative Producer Riddhi Sahni Director of Photography Jatin Gohar Visual Design Aadya Jaiswal Editors Jatin Gohar Amrit Pratap Ranjan Illustrations Alisha Swain Social Media and Streaming Aarushi Anand Set-up Studio A2Z Interiors Equipment & Crew Sahil Films Production Coordinator Vaishnavi Sharma
