Healthy Mind, Healthy Life

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.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Portia Preston—TEDx speaker, public health expert, professor, and author of Hustle, Flow, or Let It Go (releasing August 5). Together, they unpack the three pillars of shame-free wellness: hustle, flow, and letting go. Dr. Preston explains how hustle culture often disguises itself as ambition, how small daily practices can ground us in flow, and why releasing unrealistic expectations is key to real self-care. This episode goes beyond surface-level advice and offers a framework for cultivating sustainable wellness and building self-care communities that truly support us.

About the Guest  

Dr. Portia Preston is a two-time TEDx speaker, professor, executive coach, and public health expert with decades of experience at the CDC and in policy, leadership, and transformation. Her new book Hustle, Flow, or Let It Go blends her personal journey with practical strategies for cultivating well-being. She advocates for redefining productivity, embracing authenticity, and creating self-care communities.

Key Takeaways  

• Hustle is not always a choice—it’s often shaped by culture, survival needs, and internalized expectations.

• Purposeful ambition aligns with core values; toxic hustle erodes health and relationships.

• Flow is not mystical—it can be built through small daily practices of gratitude, awe, and presence.

• Letting go is not giving up—it’s releasing perfectionism, shame, and internalized ableism.

• True wellness is not about going it alone—self-care requires trusted community and support.

• Self-worth is inherent like the sun—even when clouds (struggles, mistakes, or judgments) try to block it.

In this powerful episode of Healthy Waves, we explore how inner transformation leads to lasting outer success. Self-realization coach Florence Doisneau joins Avik to discuss how turning inward can dissolve burnout, boost confidence, and bring peace in both personal and professional life. Florence shares her journey from cycles of overwhelm to awakening through the 3 Principles framework and offers actionable insights on tuning into your intuition, discerning your ego from your core self, and why external strategies often fail without inner clarity. Whether you’re feeling stuck or ready for deeper alignment, this conversation offers a path forward through self-awareness and grounded inner connection.

This episode is a must-listen for professionals, wellness seekers, and anyone feeling disconnected or overwhelmed by life’s noise. Tune in for inspiration, wisdom, and one simple daily practice that can change your mental and emotional well-being.

 

About the Guest – Florence Doisneau:
Florence is a certified self-realization coach with over a decade of experience in the 3 Principles, Yoga, and NLP. She is the founder of Realization Hub and The Realization Catalyst program, where she guides people from simply surviving life to embracing it fully. Her work centers on helping individuals reconnect with their core selves for deeper peace, clarity, and joy.

 

Key Takeaways :
Florence Doisneau emphasizes that true transformation begins within. She explains the difference between personal development and self-realization—where the former focuses on external skills, the latter is about unfolding your inner self. Florence shares how cycles of burnout led her to the 3 Principles and the profound insight that we are not our thoughts. By understanding this, people experience real relief and clarity.

One powerful example shared was of a client who transformed a tense relationship with her sister—not by controlling the situation, but by changing how she listened and reacted. Florence reminds us that success, resilience, and fulfillment stem from aligning with our core self, not chasing perfection outside of us.

She recommends starting the day by connecting to calm—whether through yoga, journaling, or stillness—before the mind races into tasks. Self-knowledge brings mental health and freedom by helping us disengage from unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with our natural peace. This episode provides both practical tools and deep perspective shifts for anyone seeking clarity, balance, and purpose.

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with holistic life coach and spiritual embodiment guide Samantha Kane of Roots Wings Wellness. Together, they explore the often-misunderstood world of emotional triggers and reveal how these difficult moments can actually serve as sacred invitations for growth. Instead of numbing, blaming, or avoiding, Samantha explains how to meet triggers with awareness, compassion, and grace. This episode offers practical tools for noticing emotional shifts, decoding hidden messages in reactions, and transforming defensiveness into self-understanding. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by emotions in relationships, social media, or daily stressors, this conversation will give you a new lens on how to rise above by going within.

About the Guest  

Samantha Kane is a certified holistic life coach and spiritual embodiment guide with nearly a decade of experience helping people break free from cycles of pain and reconnect with their higher selves. Her diverse background spans teaching, working in a psychic bookshop, and supporting wounded veterans. As the founder of Roots Wings Wellness, Samantha guides individuals through deep healing journeys, integrating awareness, nervous system regulation, and sacred embodiment practices.

Key Takeaways  

• Triggers are not flaws but sacred messengers pointing toward unmet needs, suppressed emotions, or outdated beliefs.

• Self-awareness begins with noticing emotional shifts—sadness, anger, envy, or fear—and gently reflecting on their roots.

• Instead of bypassing discomfort, see triggers as an invitation to release shame, anger, or judgment and reconnect with your authentic self.

• Relationships often amplify triggers; consistent practice of noticing, breathing, and reflection helps transform these moments into growth.

• Healing isn’t a one-time event—it’s a lifelong practice of awareness and integration that deepens self-understanding over time.

• A simple tool: when triggered, pause, let your body relax, breathe deeply, and ask, “What is this showing me?” to reclaim your power.
