The Power of Play: How Fun Can Heal Your Body & Mind with Zander Phelps

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Katharina Huang—a former machine learning data scientist who left behind the corporate grind to create a slower, happier, and more intentional life. Katharina shares her journey of navigating burnout, caring for her family after her father’s stroke, and ultimately reinventing herself as an indie author and puzzle-book creator. Together, they unpack what it means to pivot with purpose, the challenges of third-culture identity, and why joy, play, and presence are more important than the pursuit of endless success. This is a powerful conversation for anyone questioning the cost of hustle culture and searching for ways to reclaim autonomy, creativity, and well-being. About the Guest   Katharina Huang is the creator of Vegout Voyage, an adventure puzzle book series that blends travel, creativity, and play. Born in Germany, raised between the U.S. and Taiwan, and with research experience in Uganda and Tibet in exile, her multicultural background deeply informs her storytelling. After over a decade in tech, Katharina transitioned into authorship and entrepreneurship, championing mental health for third-culture kids and those navigating burnout. Learn more: vegoutvoyage.com Key Takeaways   Burnout can be a turning point, not the end of the story—Katharina rebuilt her life after leaving tech. Her father’s stroke became a wake-up call about the fragility of waiting for “someday” to enjoy life. Success on paper doesn’t always mean well-being; redefining success means prioritizing quality of life. Third-culture kids often carry silent struggles, but those experiences can also fuel empathy and creativity. Building a “lifestyle business” allows for autonomy, balance, and alignment between work and personal values. Humor and perspective—even in setbacks like Amazon blocking her Kindle version—help her keep moving forward. Slowing down is not giving up; it’s a choice to live more fully and intentionally.   Connect with Katharina   Website: vegoutvoyage.com Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Jason VanDevere, entrepreneur, author of Dream Driven, and founder of GoalCrazy. Jason shares his story of walking away from a multi-million dollar family business to build his own path with just a vision, a journal, and relentless persistence. From selling over 40,000 planners to creating multiple income streams and now publishing his upcoming book, Jason opens up about the mental, emotional, and practical side of entrepreneurship. This conversation goes beyond success stories—it’s about protecting mental health, finding balance, setting boundaries, and fueling your business with passion and systems that work. Whether you’re in your first launch or scaling your fifth year, Jason’s insights will help you design a business that supports your life not overtakes it. About the Guest   Jason VanDevere is an entrepreneur, podcast host, and creator of the GoalCrazy Planner. He has built a seven-figure business from scratch, manages a thriving real estate portfolio, and coaches others on designing a life that aligns with their deepest dreams. His new book, Dream Driven (launching September 9, 2025), guides readers through clarifying their vision and building businesses that make their dream lifestyles possible.   Website: goalcrazy.comBook: Dream Driven (available September 9, 2025, on Amazon) Key Takeaways   Balance is possible in entrepreneurship if you design your business around your desired lifestyle—not the other way around. Clarity of vision helps push through fear, doubt, and financial struggles in the early years. Dreams give goals meaning; without dreams, entrepreneurs often end up in “survival mode.” Journaling can help unload fears, clarify thoughts, and keep the mind available for focused work. Taking regular “mindset days” (full days off during the week) prevents burnout and sparks creativity. Passion fuels persistence, but systems and practical strategies make long-term success possible. Boundaries—like timers and fixed work hours—protect mental health and family life. Family commitments can drive productivity by limiting wasted time and forcing focus on high-value activities. Success isn’t about building the biggest business; it’s about building the life your business fits into.   Connect with the Guest   Website: goalcrazy.comFree PDF: goalcrazy.com/ideaBook: Dream Driven (Amazon, September 9, 2025)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?   DM on PM – Send me a message on PodMatch DM Me Here: https://www.podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/avik   CHECK PODCAST SHOWS & BE A GUEST:   Tune to all our 19 podcasts: https://www.podbean.com/podcast-network/healthymindbyavik Subscribe To Newsletter: https://healthymindbyavik.substack.com/ Join Community: https://nas.io/healthymind OUR SERVICES   Business Podcast Management Individual Podcast Management Share Your Story With World STAY TUNED AND FOLLOW US!   Medium - https://medium.com/@contentbyavikYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@healthymindbyavikInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/healthyminds.pod/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/podcast.healthymindLinkedIn Page - https://www.linkedin.com/company/healthymindbyavikLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/avikchakrabortypodcaster/Twitter - https://twitter.com/podhealthclubPinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/Avikpodhealth/ SHARE YOUR REVIEW   Share your Google Review Share a video Testimonial   #podmatch #healthymind #healthymindbyavik #wellness #HealthyMindByAvik #MentalHealthAwareness #StorytellingAsMedicine #PodcastLife #PersonalDevelopment #ConsciousLiving #GrowthMindset #MindfulnessMatters #VoicesOfUnity #InspirationDaily #podcast #podcasting #podcaster #podcastlife #podcastlove #podcastshow #podcastcommunity #newpodcast #podcastaddict #podcasthost #pdcastepisode #podcastinglife #podrecommendation #wellnesspodcast #healthpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #wellbeing #selfcare #mentalhealth #mindfulness #healthandwellness #wellnessjourney #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthawareness #healthandwellnesspodcast #fyp #foryou #foryoupage #viral #trending #tiktok #tiktokviral #explore #trendingvideo #youtube #motivation #inspiration #positivity #mindset #selflove #success

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Redha Alayesh, a data-driven marketer and entrepreneur from Saudi Arabia, to break down the essentials of building a marketing department that actually fuels business growth. From startups to established companies, too many leaders still think marketing equals ads and flashy campaigns. Redha explains why success lies in building strong foundations—understanding customers, creating measurable strategies, and avoiding wasted budgets on vanity metrics. Listeners will learn how to move from guesswork to growth, why balancing creativity with analytics matters, and how to upskill teams for long-term retention and performance. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by marketing decisions or unsure of what actually works, this episode delivers clarity, structure, and practical insights. About the Guest   Redha Alayesh is a Saudi-based entrepreneur and marketer who has built ventures and advised top brands across the Middle East. With a focus on data-driven strategies, he helps companies transform marketing from scattered tactics into structured growth engines. Key Takeaways   Marketing success starts with customer understanding and clear journeys, not just ads. B2B and B2C companies require different marketing entry points—context matters. Collecting and using customer contact data is the first step to meaningful insights. Avoid vanity metrics (followers, likes) and focus on clarity metrics (leads, revenue, lifetime value). Experiment before scaling—don’t overspend on one idea without testing. Balancing creativity and analytics is crucial; neither works in isolation. Upskilling marketing teams not only drives results but also increases employee retention. Following competitors or trends blindly often leads to wasted budgets—principles and data must guide decisions.   Connect with the Guest   You can learn more about Redha’s work and insights by connecting with him on LinkedIn or exploring his consulting projects in marketing and growth across the Middle East via website.

In this episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik explores the power of reclaiming our inner compass and taking radical responsibility for emotional, mental, and physical health. Guests Dr. Marissa Heisel, a holistic healing expert, and Zoey Kyriacou, a licensed therapist and anxiety specialist, share grounded insights on self-healing, boundary setting, and redefining self-care. Together, they reveal how tuning into our body’s wisdom, questioning external authority, and practicing practical mental health tools can create clarity, peace, and empowerment. This conversation bridges science and soul, helping you step into alignment and reconnect with your true self. About the Guests   Dr. Marissa Heisel is a holistic healing pioneer with 25+ years of experience blending chiropractic care, midwifery, and energy medicine. She helps women reclaim authority over their health and live in alignment with their inner compass. Zoey Kyriacou is a licensed professional counselor, certified anxiety specialist, and founder of Mastermind Counseling. She supports high-functioning adults navigating anxiety, burnout, ADHD, and boundaries with a mix of heart and practical tools. Key Takeaways   Radical responsibility begins with reclaiming inner authority instead of outsourcing all decisions to external systems. Modern health culture often conditions people into compliance; healing starts with curiosity, embodiment, and listening to the body. High-functioning adults frequently hide anxiety behind success; learning to challenge internal stories and self-talk is essential. Boundaries are difficult for people-pleasers but vital for sustainable mental health; practicing small “no’s” helps overcome guilt. Self-care isn’t always bubble baths—it can be the unglamorous choices like eating better, resting, or walking outside. True well-being comes from alignment with purpose, presence, and practices that reconnect us to nature and stillness.   Connect with the Guests   Dr. Marissa Heisel: https://www.elementalhealingarts.life/ Zoey Kyriacou: mastermindcounseling.com Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

In this transformative episode of Healthy Waves, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with two extraordinary guests whose work bridges the gap between science, empathy, and hands-on healing. Kiara McBain, creator of The Rubber Band Method and author of Hands-on Yoga Assists, shares how consent-based touch can become a powerful tool for nervous system regulation and trauma recovery. Dr. Alex Hilario, founder of Chiropractic Rehabilitation Source, reveals how holistic chiropractic care can help people avoid surgery, reduce chronic pain, and restore the body’s natural healing capacity. From honoring personal boundaries in yoga to understanding the root causes of physical dysfunction, this conversation offers practical strategies for reconnecting with your body, reducing stress, and building resilience—whether you’re recovering from trauma, managing chronic pain, or simply seeking a deeper mind-body connection. About the Guests   Kiara McBainYoga educator, trauma survivor, and creator of The Rubber Band Method—a consent-driven, anatomy-informed approach to hands-on yoga assists. Author of Hands-on Yoga Assists, she empowers teachers to use touch ethically and skillfully for nervous system regulation.Website: rubberbandmethod.com Dr. Alex HilarioChiropractor and founder of Chiropractic Rehabilitation Source in Yonkers, NY. With over two decades of experience, Dr. Hilario helps patients avoid invasive surgery and chronic medications through chiropractic care, acupuncture, and a holistic mind-body-spirit approach.Website: https://chirorehabsource.com/ Key Takeaways  : Consent in touch is essential for creating safety, especially in yoga and wellness spaces. The nervous system’s state directly impacts overall health—regulated touch can help reduce stress hormones and increase oxytocin. Many people carry undisclosed trauma, making respectful consent crucial in any hands-on practice. Holistic chiropractic care addresses the root cause of pain by restoring spinal alignment and nervous system function. Healing is a process—quick fixes often mask symptoms without resolving the underlying issue. Quality of touch involves reading body cues and adjusting pressure based on individual needs. Chronic stress is often an upstream cause of multiple physical and mental health issues. Integrating safe, non-invasive practices like chiropractic, massage, yoga, and breathwork can accelerate recovery. Hope and belief in the body’s capacity to heal are integral to the healing journey. Adults, like children, still need regular, healthy touch for emotional and physical well-being.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana speaks with Alessandro Grampa, serial impact entrepreneur, Buddhist practitioner, and founder of Whole Grain Wisdom. Alessandro shares his journey of building companies, facing burnout, navigating neurodiversity, and transforming his mental and physical health through mindfulness, biohacking, and quantum science. The conversation uncovers why so many entrepreneurs silently battle trauma, panic attacks, imposter syndrome, and exhaustion—and why the startup ecosystem often ignores founder well-being. Alessandro introduces the idea of the Quantum Founder—leaders who integrate mind, body, and energy for sustainable success. He also shares insights from his retreats, where entrepreneurs learn to release trapped trauma, regulate energy, and rebuild from the inside out. This is a must-listen if you’re an entrepreneur, founder, or leader who wants to avoid burnout and embrace clarity, alignment, and conscious leadership. About the Guest  : Alessandro Grampa is a serial impact entrepreneur, digital nomad, Buddhist practitioner, and founder of Whole Grain Wisdom. With over 11 years in startups, he now leads a mission to help founders integrate mental health, ancient wisdom, and quantum science into entrepreneurship. Whole Green Wisdom offers media, education, and retreats worldwide, with the next founder retreat scheduled in Thailand. Key Takeaways   Trauma is often the hidden root of burnout, anxiety, and imposter syndrome in entrepreneurs. 3 out of 4 entrepreneurs are neurodiverse, making mental health support essential, not optional. Entrepreneurship can trap founders in cycles of overwork and identity loss—learning to become the entrepreneur of yourself is the first step toward healing. Burnout is not just tiredness; it’s the body shutting down and rejecting unsustainable patterns. Successful founders protect their mental, physical, and energetic health as their greatest asset. Quantum leadership means aligning the three intelligences—brain, heart, and gut—for clearer decisions and resilience. Ancient wisdom is now being validated by modern science: energy regulation, coherence, and intuition are measurable and powerful for leadership. Whole Grain Wisdom retreats offer practical tools to release trauma stored in the body and design energy-based routines for high performance.   Connect with Alessandro Grampa   Website: https://wholegrainwisdom.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alessandro-grampa/ Check upcoming retreats, including the Thailand event in November.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Dr. Whitney Wright—orthodontist, former Chief Clinical Officer of Reza’s Dental & Braces, and bestselling author of Men Under Pressure. Together, they unpack the silent struggles men face with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and the crushing expectations of masculinity. Dr. Wright shares his personal journey through debilitating panic attacks, the breaking point that forced him to stop, and the healing practices that brought laughter and life back to his home. This is a raw conversation about the stigma surrounding men’s emotions, the dangers of silence, and how men can reclaim their health without shame. Whether you’re a man navigating pressure or someone supporting a man you love, this conversation will shift how you see strength, vulnerability, and true wellness. About the Guest   Dr. Whitney Wright is a practising orthodontist, entrepreneur, mental health advocate, and the bestselling author of Men Under Pressure. Drawing from his lived experience with anxiety, depression, and PTSD, he now speaks and writes about redefining strength, breaking stigma, and guiding men toward healthier lives. Learn more at menunderpressure.com. Key Takeaways   Silence around men’s mental health is dangerous—unspoken pressure often leads to destructive coping mechanisms like addiction. Panic attacks forced Dr. Wright to face his limits, showing that ignoring mental health red flags has severe consequences. Healing begins with simple, non-negotiable steps: movement, self-care, and making time for wellness. Sharing openly with family, partners, and peers helps reduce shame and builds crucial support systems. Social media culture glamorizes wealth, power, and performance while hiding pain—real strength comes from honesty and balance. Wellness isn’t about extremes like biohacking; it’s about consistent care and showing yourself you matter. Healing has a ripple effect—when men care for their mental health, families regain connection, joy, and laughter. True masculinity includes vulnerability, compassion, and the courage to seek help.   Connect with the Guest   Website: menunderpressure.com Book: Men Under Pressure (available on Amazon – ebook, paperback, audiobook) Connect with him on socials available on his website Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
