    Rand Selig on Beyond Success: What Does It Really Mean to Thrive?

    Send us Fan Mail What if there was a different definition of success? One related with being, more than doing? In this episode you’ll learn why titles and financial success alone don't necessarily create a fulfilling life and why focusing on being a better person is the main drive for thriving.    My guest, Rand Selig, is an accomplished entrepreneur, lifelong investment banker, author, and public speaker who has spent more than four decades navigating the world of global finance. He holds an MBA from Stanford, with undergraduate degrees in mathematics and psychology.  After navigating his own life challenges, his realizations led him to write his award-winning book, Thriving! How to Create a Healthier, Happier, and More Prosperous Life, where he explores how we can take ownership of our lives, embrace positive change, and create greater alignment with our deepest values. Although our books speak to different stages of life, the philosophy behind Thriving! resonates deeply with the message of my own book, Living Your Best Life in College – the idea that we have a role in consciously creating a fulfilling life by the choices we make every day.

    Madhuri Garigipati on Helping Teens & Parents Find Emotional Balance

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when, despite doing everything you believe you're supposed to do, you realize that what your child needs most is something you were never taught how to offer? In this conversation, we talk about a journey of learning emotional regulation, why this skill is so important for both students and parents, and why supporting a child's emotional well-being may sometimes require us to look at—and regulate—ourselves first. My guest, Madhuri Garigipati, is a certified life coach founder of Path2Courage. She brings in more than two decades of experience in the IT industry and two master's degrees however, it was her own parenting journey that led her to discover the importance of emotional regulation and true connection.  At Path2Courage, she uses her structured thinking, cultural sensitivity, and practical approach to help parents of high-achieving teens navigate stress, emotional overwhelm, motivation challenges, and disconnection while building calmer, stronger relationships at home.

    Lisa Tahir in Healing Your Core Wounds

    Send us Fan Mail We all carry invisible wounds. Some were shaped by childhood experiences, some by relationships, and others by the expectations we've placed on ourselves. Left unexamined, these wounds can quietly influence the way we think, love, communicate, and move through life. But what if those wounds aren't meant to define us? What if they can become our greatest teachers? In this conversation, we explore the concept of our core wounds, how they influence our relationships and sense of self, and why self-forgiveness may be one of the most powerful steps toward lasting healing.  My guest, Lisa Tahir, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, certified EMDR therapist, Reiki practitioner, thought coach, the All Things Therapy Podcast host, and the author of The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness, a book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
