Kiran Prasad

Welcome to the Uprooted by Unwanted Change podcast about managing life transitions. Whether it’s due to relocation, politics, natural disaster, job loss, death of a loved one, divorce, breakup, finances, or injury or disease…change is never easy - especially when it’s unwanted.    I’m Kiran Prasad, teacher, speaker, and author of “A Mindful Move: Feel at home again’ based on my 29 house moves. While I’m someone who’s always yearned for stability, the only constant in my life has been change! I’ve finally come to an acceptance and found purpose and meaning in it all by helping others going through the same.    On each episode, we’ll focus on a topic of unwanted change with guests sharing stories of resilience and insights into how they navigated their journeys. Together, we’ll discover a community of inspiring individuals and create a system of support for one another.   In the midst of chaos and uncertainty, may you find peace and rootedness.    If you enjoyed the podcast, please subscribe, share, and join our “Uprooted by Unwanted Change Facebook group”.
