Summary

As you can tell, this is not Dr. Niket Sonpal. For those unfamiliar with my voice, my name is Andrew, and I'm the founder of Medgeeks. I was also the initial host of this very podcast. 

I stepped away from recording and creating content for a few years to really focus on growing Medgeeks. But, alas, I missed writing and recording and I'm jumping on to share a couple of updates.

I started a Substack (free publication and podcast) where I'll share thoughts on medicine, fulfillment, happiness, and growth. I want you to practice medicine because you want to, not because you have to.

The second thing I want to share with you is that for the last five years, I've been working to answer a question most of us have struggled with at some point in time: how do we live a life we love that fulfills us? 

In the last six months, I've been working to put all these thoughts into one cohesive document that will one day become a book. Although many of the concepts I'm writing about apply to any human in any profession, there are distinct nuances I'll highlight that can only be understood by those working in medicine.

I'll be publishing the first chapters for free on Substack, because I want to share these ideas with as many people as possible. I'm also adding the audio for each chapter on my new podcast:

See you there!
