We get to create the stories of our life. But sometimes we hold on so tightly to the stories that we create that they can negatively impact our mental health and money. In this episode, I speak with Dr. Varun Gandhi about the power of stories. Dr. Varun Gandhi is a life orchestrator, soulpreneur, Angel investor, inventor, philanthropist, and a water doctor. We talk about how to create or rewrite our life story in a way that serves our purpose, our finances, and our mental health.
“Paying attention to what stories we are creating will help us reduce the anxiety and the unnecessary stress that's going on in our lives.” - Dr. Varun Gandhi
