Dhruva and David share stories from their life growing up in incredibly challenging environments, eventually leading to their own personal transformations, and David discusses his work helping healthcare systems with massive transformations. Dhruva told himself at one point, “If I ever get out of this…I will do whatever I can to serve.” He discusses personally developing himself, and techniques that supported him, including the process involved in writing rap songs; “I think that’s what really saved me...I’m so free now!”David talks about the impact the death of his grandfather had on him, spurring him on to a time of “fast living.” “I have all the stuff, I should be happy. But I wasn’t, so I was doubling down filling in the gaps with more fast living. I was miserable.” David describes his powerful spiritual experience, “In about 10 minutes I went from being one kind of person to another!”David shares what he believes is needed for systems-based change in healthcare, and he illustrates a powerful story from his dad’s cancer journey. Dhruva shares a poignant story about his mom, and his message to everyone is, “Be nice to yourself and feel good about yourself, every second!”
