In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik speaks with Thom Barrett—author, adventurer, former PwC partner, and terminal cancer survivor—on what it really means to live while dying. Thom shares how facing Stage 4 prostate cancer has deepened his purpose, strengthened his emotional clarity, and opened a path of profound vulnerability and meaning. From redefining masculinity to writing his way through grief, Thom reminds us that joy is a choice and adventure isn’t just about climbing mountains—it’s about how you meet each moment. This isn’t a story about survival. It’s a conversation about living deeply, even when the clock is ticking. About the Guest: Thom Barrett is a storyteller, former PwC partner, cancer warrior, and author of five soul-stirring books including Living While Dying and The Strength of Surrender. With a background in business and a heart rooted in service, Thom now spends his time writing, mentoring, and living intentionally.

It’s about engaging with life, especially when it gets hard. Vulnerability is strength. Thom redefines what it means to be a strong man—one who shares, connects, and asks for help. Journaling can save your life. Writing helped Thom process grief, depression, and ultimately transformed into published books. Purpose doesn’t end with diagnosis. Thom lives each day to give back, speak truth, and inspire others on their path. Joy is a choice.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Deevo, known as The Brand Storyteller, for a no-fluff, high-clarity conversation on branding that resonates. Together, they unpack the myths around logos, color palettes, and surface-level marketing to get to the heart of real brand building: identity. Deevo shares how emotional alignment—not just visibility—builds trust and turns audiences into loyal communities. Whether you're a new entrepreneur or scaling a 7-figure venture, this episode shows why clarity beats complexity and why your brand starts long before your marketing does. About the Guest: Deevo is a brand architect, speaker, retreat leader, and host of The Branding Lab Podcast. With years of experience coaching leaders, creatives, and entrepreneurs, he helps clients ditch performance-based branding for something more magnetic: a bold, identity-led brand built on clarity, not comparison. Known for his unapologetic voice and strategic depth, Deevo is a trusted name in helping businesses and individuals stand out with purpose. Key Takeaways: Branding isn’t logos—it’s alignment between who you are and how the world experiences you. Clarity before visibility: Messaging without self-awareness leads to noise, not traction. Emotional connection is the true power of a brand—resonance over relevance. Your audience aligns with identity, not imitation. Boldness attracts the right people. Self-audits and mindset shifts—like prioritizing growth over perfection—are the real first steps.

They explore why today’s youth are facing rising levels of anxiety, disconnection, and stalled independence. Dr. Jack shares how the pandemic exposed—not created—this crisis, emphasizing the breakdown in real-world connections, lack of resiliency, and the cultural shift toward canceling rather than engaging in growth-building relationships. The conversation dives into Dr. Jack’s unique model of therapeutic support that goes beyond traditional therapy, helping young adults build sustainable habits, systems, and emotional resilience while fostering independence. ABOUT THE GUEST:Dr. Jack Hinman is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with young adults in diverse therapeutic settings, from inpatient hospitals to outdoor therapy programs. As founder of Engage Young Adult Transitions, Dr. Jack helps young people build real-life skills, navigate anxiety, and foster identity formation through a combination of therapeutic guidance, community connection, and practical support systems. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Today’s youth struggle with anxiety rooted in disconnection, not just mental health issues. Social avoidance during and after the pandemic has magnified anxiety and stalled identity development. Effective support requires consistent, relationship-based influence rather than control. Building systems and habits (not rigid goals) fosters long-term independence. Parents also need to develop resiliency to support their struggling children without over-controlling. Engage’s integrated model blends therapy, coaching, academic support, and daily living skills to empower young adults.   CONNECT WITH DR.

In this soul-stirring episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik dives deep with Jasmina Sabi, author of Am I Thinking Correct?, into the raw terrain of heartbreak, emotional reprogramming, and spiritual clarity. Jasmina shares how a traumatic betrayal shattered her perception of love, leading her to question everything—her emotions, brain chemistry, and belief systems. Her journey weaves through epigenetics, biochemistry, and consciousness, offering listeners a powerful reframing of healing and human experience. This is a conversation for anyone questioning their reality and searching for grounded inner truth. About the Guest:Jasmina Sabi is a writer, speaker, and truth-seeker whose journey through betrayal, loss, and self-inquiry led her to explore the science of biochemistry and the soul’s capacity for healing. Her book Am I Thinking Correct? explores how our thoughts, trauma, and spiritual disconnection shape our experience. Jasmina offers an unfiltered, deeply personal lens into the process of self-awareness and emotional evolution. Key Takeaways: Heartbreak can be a gateway to deep emotional and biochemical insight. The body’s biochemistry, especially the brain’s “drugs,” plays a major role in our emotional responses. Healing requires questioning not only our pain, but also what we’ve been taught to normalize. Identity labels (religion, status) can limit healing by narrowing perspective. True transformation comes from understanding the brain, body, and spirit as an integrated whole.
