Hosted by podcast@myndstories.com|May 11, 2022

In this episode of the MyndStories Minis, Smitha Murthy talks to Raj Dagwar, the founder of Listener’s Army and TEDx speaker about how he turned around a painful period in his life into a movement that is changing lives.

We discuss:

1. Raj’s early experience with a toxic relationship

2. How our external support systems are important

3. Family support in dealing with depression

4. Raj launching the campaign #DepressionMukt to bring more awareness around depression

5. Raj’s Listening Army, which currently works in major Indian cities, and is willing to lend an ear so that people can tell their stories

6. How through listening to Raj, we can transform the debris of our lives into something that is powerful and life-changing for others
