On this week's podcast we’re delighted to talk to Pedram Shojai, who is well known as the Urban Monk. He is a Dr of Oriental Medicine & Integrative Medicine, a taoist priest, a qi gong master, film maker and a New York Times best selling author. 

We met Pedram when we were in the US at a health conference and we hit it off immediately. In this episode Dr Pedram shares his insights on the the cause of the midlife crisis, how we often get trapped in the medical system of cure rather than prevention and how we’re constantly being distracted from taking responsibility for our life.

There is so much in this podcast that will get you thinking - perhaps in new and different ways, and we hope you enjoy the conversation as much as we enjoyed recording it.
