E127 - Dr. Rangan Chatterjee: Become the Architect of Your Health, Happiness, and Purpose

Dr. Rangan Chatterjee unpacks the pillars of health and happiness that determine the quality of our life. Beyond the daily habits we implement, he discusses the impact that our mindset has on our health outcomes and how by getting to the root cause of this we can heal our bodies from the inside out. He reveals the most powerful practices he's discovered in his 20 years as a medical doctor: from cultivating deep introspection and knowledge of your body, to the secret to easily making big changes in your life. He dives into the concept of purpose, discussing that our society's current view of it limits us and doesn't allow us to find meaning in every day life. He shares a fresh perspective on this and how each of us can determine our core values and create a meaningful life. He also opens up about his personal journey of finding fulfillment beyond success, overcoming perfectionism, and living with an open heart.
