In today’s episode of The Stories That Sparkle, Shyama shares with me how what felt like a near-death experience changed everything—how she practices medicine, who she lives with. and how she sees herself. She also shares about how she uses the perspective of astronauts to look back on her life without regrets. It gave me a whole different way to look back on my own life. And I cannot wait to have Shyama back on the pod to talk about...MENOPAUSE!

So, I invite you get comfortable, sit back, and listen in.

Please share, rate, review & comment and help get the word out about this episode (and the podcast in general). All of these women are incredible and Shyama is no exception. Her perspective is truly inspiring—I would love for as many people as possible, especially anyone going through a divorce, to hear how she shares it with such ease and grace. Thanks!

Here is the link to The Economist article about Gen X that I mention in our conversation.
