Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with Patrick Kamba to unpack a hard truth: success can look great on paper and still feel exhausting. Together, they explore the shift from loud, performative ambition to “quiet ambition” rooted in calm confidence, integrity, and real influence.

This conversation is for high performers, people-pleasers, burnt-out leaders, and anyone who’s hit big goals yet still felt strangely empty. You’ll learn how to navigate office politics without losing yourself, spot insecurity disguised as ambition, and build a version of success that protects your mind and your life.

About the Guest:

Patrick Kamba is a pharmaceutical industry executive who has led global teams and mentored emerging leaders. He shares insights from his journey toward “quiet ambition” and mentions his book, Quiet Ambition.

Key Takeaways:

• Quiet ambition is calm, respectful confidence, not playing small or staying invisible.

• Office politics exist everywhere; navigate them by building alliances while staying authentic.

• Healthy ambition starts with self-awareness: define goals you can measure and know when you’ve arrived.

• Loud, performative ambition often pushes people away and blocks honest feedback.

• Celebrate wins intentionally so you don’t fall into the endless “next goal” treadmill.

• Fulfillment is usually a byproduct of living well, not a box you can tick.
