I seek wellbeing, authentically, passionately, relentlessly. In my journey, I meet new people every day. From all walks of life. The Living with Sunny podcast is where I converse with the people I meet — some of the best minds on the planet from domains such as mental health, mindfulness, business, psychology, policy research, and more. Our conversations range from casual and soulful to uplifting and enlightening, touching upon the experiences that defined them; their work and passion; how they overcame the curveballs life threw their way; how they grew their businesses and became successful leaders; sustainability; giving back, etc. And how, through it all, they found their own path to Wholistic Wellbeing. Apart from being passionate about wellbeing, my guests have one thing in common — each of them has channelled their life’s learning and used their loci of influence to create a positive impact on the world in some way or the other. Join us to gain insights that can help you jumpstart your own Wholistic Wellbeing journey and live a joyful and meaningful life.
Did you know that the average doctor-patient interaction in the US lasts for a mere seven minutes? How does one discuss lifestyle changes, patient progress, and a preventive Wholistic Wellbeing plan in just seven minutes?
Dung Trinh, chief medical officer at Irvine Clinical Research, feels that since our healthcare system profits from our illnesses, the focus is on sick care through prescriptions and curative treatments. The day we start thinking of prevention in terms of improving our sleep, following a nutrition plan, or looking after our lifestyle, we’ll feel happier and healthier.

Author and business coach Shasheen Shah explains why success doesn't mean much without fulfilment. He talks about why some of the most successful people feel unfulfilled: “It’s wonderful to achieve your goals but if it is fleeting, it becomes an unsustainable fuel that burns you out.”
And I completely agree. Instead of quickly moving on to the next big thing, why not revel in our successes first and find happiness in them?

Is your life a sprint or a marathon?
Sometimes, we’re so bogged down by work and stress that we forget about our long-term wellbeing goals. All we care about is powering through the day to get things done and that’s how burnout creeps up on us — slowly and steadily.
In this week’s episode of Living with Sunny Podcast, Allan shares his burnout story, which reminded me of my own. We talk about how to deal with burnout and he even teaches me and Thomas a quick one-minute meditation hack to recenter ourselves on a busy day.

Did you know that our brain experiences 70,000–80,000 thoughts every day? And most of them are negative.
While we may not be able to control our thoughts, we can control our focus and perspective. The more positive thoughts we have in our mind, the slower we age.
Physician, author, and TEDX speaker Dr. Kien Vuu shares this and a lot more in this week’s episode of Living with Sunny podcast. I learnt about the seven biogenetic elements that are in constant communication with our DNA — sleep, nutrition, movement, stress and emotional mastery, our mindset, sense of purpose, and relationships. A better hold on these elements means a longer and better quality of life for us.
Dr. Vuu really inspired me to change a few things in my day after this session. Are you ready to live longer and better?

Ever thought about why we’re so hard on ourselves?
It’s likely because we’re low on compassion — the ‘clean energy of living’.
In this week’s episode of Living with Sunny podcast, contemplative psychotherapist Joe Lizzo tells me how our ‘survival of the fittest’ instinct is limiting our capacity for compassion. As someone who tries to live from joy, it was surprising to see how most of us are conditioned to live from fear.

Did you sleep well last night?
Some of us sleep effortlessly while others keep scrolling on our phones till late or waking up in the middle of the night.
Why are we not sleeping properly? Sleep doctor Michael Breus has the answer to all your questions.
In this week’s podcast episode, Michael talks about the science of sleeping and explains the four sleep chronotypes — lion, bear, wolf and dolphin, based on whether you sleep better during the day or night.

Can’t give up your favorite fast food? You may not have to with these healthy hacks.
As a nutritionist, Liana Werner-Gray's biggest challenge is to help people shift to a healthy diet. However, healthy food need not be boring, says Liana, in this week’s episode of Living with Sunny podcast.
From ice cream to chicken nuggets, she has a healthy hack for all your food cravings. “This is how I win people over: I ask people what they love and show them a healthier alternative for it that tastes really good,” she says.
Liana introduces me and Thomas Power to the Pegan diet — a blend of the paleo and vegan eating styles. Thanks to her, we’re also going to hop on to the chlorophyll water trend to start our day on an energetic note!

When are we at our creative best?
According to professor, author, and inventor David Edwards, ignorance is one of the most undervalued qualities in the scientific world. “With ignorance comes a certain vulnerability and innocence that opens up our minds to new possibilities and creative solutions,” says David.
In this week’s episode of Living with Sunny Podcast, David Edwards explains how ignorance begets innovation and talks about his latest invention — Fend, which has been 21 years in the making.

Can buildings save the environment?
We tend to see nature as separate from the world of buildings and architecture — natural vs artificial. What if these worlds could unite to save the environment instead of harming it?
Architect, curator, and writer Pedro Gadanho believes that architecture needs to move beyond sustainability and have a regenerative effect on the environment. Instead of being driven by consumption, the world needs to focus on renovation and rehabilitation to build a future that doesn’t deplete our natural resources.

For the last four decades, Harvard professor, Dr. Ellen Langer has been studying and exploring ways to incorporate mindfulness in our daily lives with a view to enhance happiness and joy. In this episode of Living with Sunny Podcast, Ellen explains the impact of mindfulness on ageing, relationships, and stress.

“Happiness isn’t what you seek, achieve, accomplish or acquire. It’s what you essentially are.”
Positive Psychology and Happiness Expert, Rob Mack talks happiness, not as a state of mind but as a state of being. He pulls back the curtain on his own mental health journey, talking about his personal struggles with depression and a past suicide attempt. Rob says finding happiness is easier and more effortless than we think.

Investment banker and meditation teacher Jim Conley joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the next episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ Youtube podcast series. The three experts discuss the most prevalent issues in wellness: meditation, Wholistic Wellbeing in the corporate setting, hypnosis, and more. Living with Sunny’s episode X is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.
Jim Conley is an investment banker, meditation teacher, and one of five co-founders of The Mindforce Institute. He is certified in Contemplative Psychotherapy by the Nalanda Institute, an intensive two-year program integrating Western contemporary psychotherapy, neuroscience, and wellness psychology with the mindfulness and compassion-based systems of Buddhist psychology and meditation. He shares his life story with the listeners.
The ‘Living with Sunny’ YouTube podcast series is co-hosted by Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power. As seekers of wellbeing, the two interview a range of figures from the worlds of business, medicine, academia, science, technology, and publishing, to explore individual wellbeing journeys and map out society’s progress towards a better, more harmonious world, across various industries.
Sunny strongly believes in the Wholistic Wellbeing concept. That is what this podcast really is about. Wholistic Wellbeing makes you feel better; it is about becoming a better person, mentally, emotionally, and physically.
As a seeker, Sunny has long studied how the use of holistic health can help everyone achieve a feeling of wholeness necessary to their overall wellbeing. He calls this concept Wholistic Wellbeing, which consists of 7 pillars: Emotional Wellbeing, Physical Wellbeing, Social Wellbeing, Financial Wellbeing, Professional Wellbeing, Community Wellbeing, and Planetary Wellbeing.
You can find ‘Living With Sunny’ via YouTube, but also via LinkedIn, Apple, Google Podcast, Spotify, and over 20 podcast directories. Tune into the Living with Sunny podcast on YouTube and Podcast directories. New episodes every Tuesday
President of World Smart Cities Forum, Jaewon Peter Chun, joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the seventh episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ Youtube podcast series. The three experts discuss the concept of ‘Holistic Wellbeing’ outlining the idea of a ‘Smart Cities’. Living with Sunny’s episode 7 is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.
Born in South Korea during the most challenging times, while it was still recuperating from the traumatic history of colonisation, Jaewon studied his initial years there. He started his career in investment/finance in tech. Progressing gradually, he got involved in projects focussed on smart cities. Sharing his insightful experiences with the listeners, he emphasises holistic wellbeing incorporates societal wellbeing and planetary wellbeing, apart from individualistic pursuit of happiness.
Jaewon feels that it is important that we, as citizens of a community take active participation in its wholistic wellbeing. “We usually call it the ‘Transparent Governance System’. Because most of the cities develop by very small group of entities. The Smart Cities is more open to its citizens. I mean, citizens’ involvement in these kinds of activities are more important in the Smart City initiatives”, he emphasises.

PR guru Eric Yaverbaum joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the eighth episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ YouTube podcast series. The three experts discuss the most prevalent issues in wellbeing and technology: the impact of the Internet on children, finding your passion, what it means to be a good leader, and more. Living with Sunny’s episode 8 is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.
Eric Yaverbaum, CEO of Ericho Communications, is communications, media, and public relations expert with over 40 years in the industry, having worked with a wide range of top-of-their-industry clients, including Sony, IKEA, Progressive Insurance, Domino’s, and H&M. He is also an author. With over a million copies sold, “Leadership Secrets of the World’s Most Successful CEOs” is a work based on interviews with 100 top executives of diverse companies (ranging from the American Red Cross to the Walt Disney Internet Group). Yaverbaum distils a list of strategies for success. He shares his extensive knowledge as a leader and a PR professional with the listeners.
Yaverbaum is concerned about the Internet using us as a tool. “The algorithms, and it's not just Facebook, they proliferate all over the place, guiding us down paths we’re already predisposed to taking. And the thing about it is, I’m colourblind, I wear black and white clothes a lot, so they’re gonna take a colour-blind guy down the colour-blind avenue, always, and I’m gonna be predisposed to going there, because I can’t see colour like everybody else. I should be considering all the possibilities, I should not be letting the Internet use me as a tool, as opposed to me using it as a tool, and I think people need to be very cognizant of that”, he says.

Among other impressive projects, the Foundation has been supporting over 700 villages in India and other exceptional work in wellbeing, education, sustainability, and sports. Offshoots like RoundGlass Sustain and RoundGlass Sports have contributed tremendous progress in their respective areas.
Thomas Power
Business advisor and tech trailblazer, Thomas Power is an entrepreneur and serial board member, with expertise spanning multiple industries. He has worked for the likes of Apple, Google, and Microsoft, and now sits on the board for The Business Café, Social Power Limited, Digital Entrepreneur, and, most significantly, 9 Spokes, the software company responsible for the 9 Spokes business management app allowing companies to aggregate meaningful data across their business, apps and banks.

Filmmaker Kireet Khurana joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the seventh episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ Youtube podcast series. The three experts discuss the most prevalent issues in wellness: homelessness in India, poverty, impactful filmmaking, and more. Living with Sunny’s episode 7 is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.
Kireet Khurana is an Indian animator.

Over the years he has won 5 President’s National Awards and 3 International Awards including Japan and Austria. He shares his extensive knowledge as a director with the listeners.
In the corporate responsibility area, Singh has made a plea for the corporations to:
“For every corporation in the world should take ownership of a social initiative, or more than one, or a partial social initiative. Something they’re passionate about and something they believe in. But take ownership of it, don’t write a cheque to a charity. Partner up with it but you own it. Because companies are the best at solving problems, why, because that’s why they were formed in the first place, to solve a problem. That would cause a sea change”.

Professor Yu Xiong joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the sixth episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ Youtube podcast series. The three experts discuss the most prevalent issues in sustainability, entrepreneurship, innovation, China’s development, and more. Living with Sunny’s episode 6 is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.
Professor Yu Xiong is an academic, researcher and serial entrepreneur. He was trained as a computer scientist, then became a professor in various business schools across the UK. He is active in doing research, growing start-ups, and creating his own companies. He shares his extensive knowledge about innovation with the listeners.
The conversation has included a comparison between Chinese vs. Western work cultures. “In China, people work for most of their time. 12 o’clock, in China, is like daytime in the UK. All the shops are open, especially the food shops and the entertainment centres. However, people don’t just tirelessly, without direction. For each endeavour, the government will have a whitepaper, a document that will say, let’s work on the direction for the next 5 years. Then it’s 5 years. Nothing like in the UK”, says Xiong.
In the sustainability area, Singh has made a plea for the Western leaders to introduce a global green tax: “America says, ok, we’re going to have a global 10% tax rate, mandatory across the world. They were able to achieve that. What makes us think that we are not able to achieve, through the will, through the political and the corporate will, that every corporation in the world has to give X percent, towards sustainability, and if they don’t do that, they get taxed a bit higher. I can live with that”.
