Her journey spans from her family’s roots in rural India to the precision of modern medicine, embodying both rigor and intuition. In the catheterization lab, amid high stakes procedures, she experienced moments of profound stillness where intuitive insights reshaped her understanding of healing. These experiences, equal parts technical mastery and meditative presence, opened the path to exploring new paradigms of healing.Today, Priya approaches evidence based medicine and ancient traditions with equal curiosity. She fosters dialogue with doctors, healers, and wisdom keepers across the globe. She shows up fully as a physician, yoga teacher, model, and host of Open Heart, inviting listeners into courageous conversations and the rediscovery that true health embraces all of our dimensions, the physical and beyond.This episode traces how Open Heart began. Priya speaks to leaving the perfectly planned, linear path and choosing alignment. She reflects on what modern medicine offers and where curiosity asks us to look further. Energy, intuition, presence, and the spaces we create for one another are part of the same conversation as data and devices. In the cath lab, teamwork can feel like a beautiful dance and intuition often arrives before language. Learning about the electromagnetic field of the heart gave words to what many clinicians call gut feeling. None of this rejects science. It expands it.We also explore what healing means now. It is not one size fits all. It is a practice of coherence, mind, heart, spirit, and body in honest relationship. Open Heart as a title carries a clinical weight and a human invitation. It honors the gravity of care while calling us to show up with authenticity. PThe roots of Open Heart are personal. Priya’s father, also an interventional cardiologist, modeled openness to the unexplainable. Patients who sensed things before they happened. The art inside the science. His example shaped how she listens and how she practices. It also shaped her conviction that safe spaces and unfiltered stories can change lives, because stories make people feel. When we feel, we move.If you are new here, expect conversations that move between procedure rooms and living rooms, journals and yoga mats, hospital corridors and creative studios. Expect candor. Expect curiosity. Take what resonates and leave the rest. Bring your own perspective. Share it in a safe, welcoming space. Together we can learn, grow, and remember our shared humanity.If this episode resonates, share it with someone who will meet it with an open mind and an open heart.
