In this episode of Candid Confessions, we meet DR. SAROJ DUBEY, a leading gastroenterologist who, after a life altering incident, has found his calling as a mindfulness coach. His journey is a powerful reminder that true healing goes far beyond the body.
We talk about the importance of being present in the moment, of self-awareness, and how simple steps towards mindfulness can transform not just our health — but our entire approach to life.
Tune in for a heartfelt, grounded conversation about balance, compassion, and the courage it takes to heal — inside and out.
