Love Lab MD with Dr. Kate Mangona Kate Mangona, MD

In this episode, Dr. Manish, shares the story of his relationship with his wife, Seema and how they have intentionally designed a relationship where they each have more than enough “free time”. From their first encounter, where Manish impulsively embraced Seema despite having never met her before, Manish knew she was special. 
Dr. Desai reflects on the initial attraction, drawn by the alignment of their backgrounds and values. Although their chemistry was real, Manish admits that the early years of their marriage were marked by disagreements rooted in their differing family dynamics—Seema's reserved upbringing contrasted with Manish's more vocal background. 
Trough introspection and mutual growth, they have navigated challenges such as Seema's post-partum depression and the pressures of their demanding schedules. 
Together, they discovered the importance of prioritizing wellness and lifestyle over financial gain, finding joy in shared activities like workouts and walks. Ultimately, their story illustrates the power of love, authenticity, and the journey of self-discovery within a marriage, culminating in a symbolic helicopter ride representing their united journey through life's highs and lows.
