A Rare Interview—And Only Sandra Morse Could Talk Me Into It
I’m a very private person and rarely share much about my life — even when it might seem like I do. But Sandra convinced me to do this interview.
In it, I talk about what it was like growing up first-generation Asian American in a complicated household, navigating bipolar disorder, and how suffering has shaped the clinician I am today. We also explore the intersections of psychology and spirituality, the power of both connection and inner work in healing depression, and what it means to practice love in a world so often overwhelmed by fear.
”In my darkest hour, I heard a voice inside me that said, ‘It’s not your time yet. I’m with you. All you have to do is listen to me and follow me.” - Dr. Victoria Ranade
"Do all things in love. This is my spiritual practice and what all of us are called to do." - Dr. Victoria Ranade
