Genius: Sciencing Our Human Potential

Episode 2:

Dr. Sayed Tabatabai is a nephrologist in San Antonio with the soul of a writer who finds purpose in sharing stories that mirror his experiences. In our podcast, he explores the rollercoaster of emotions including grief, wonder, and connection, and the sacred space of being a physician with his patients.  The “@TheRealDoctorT” as he is known on Twitter, helps us find the beauty and calling of this strange moment in time through sharing his stories on Twitter. 

His notoriety and following have increased geometrically as he helps us see and feel more deeply the love in these most challenging moments. He is a physician who blossomed as an artist and writer during these darkest times. He helps people heal and feel less afraid not just in the hospital but also on social media and an increasingly wide platform including the Wall Street Journal and National Public Radio.

Episode 1:

Meeting Dr. Dacre Knight on social media was a catalyst for the podcast series "Voices in a Pandemic." My hope was if more people could meet him and people like him and hear the human stories, we would all be more connected during this extraordinary time.  

COVID doctor, scientist, and father of three kids under seven, what's his life like? Some other questions for him:  -Will he send his own kids to school in Florida where they live?  - What can we learn from the pandemic so far? -What sustains him? How does he cope with the stress?  -Why would doctors now have to be concerned about pay cuts and losing their jobs?  This episode has been published and can be heard everywhere your podcast is available.

I believe there are real heroic people with values, integrity, and brilliance who live among us. They are not just in the movies. They see bigger pictures of life than many of us. Dr. Knight feels like one of them. 

The best of science, neuroscience, health, learning and human stories.
