"The greatest joy in life is to simply show up as who you are and not as someone else. That's where all the music happens." — So says my guest, Priti Tanna (author of I Married a Coconut: Stories of an Indian girl growing up in America) after decades of searching for the answer to the question, "What's wrong with me?" like so many of us do.

Listen in to hear Priti's exquisitely honest and authentic story of self-discovery, including:

• How growing up as a first-generation Indian American influenced her identity and the challenges she experienced trying to 'fit in' to two vastly different cultures
• The many tools and practices Priti explored in her search to "feel better"—and which ones actually worked
• What the loss of her father and the grief that followed taught her about life, death... and all the moments in between
