Episode’s Description
In this captivating episode of Postcall: Beyond the White Coat, Dr. Selina welcomes Dr. Avi Ratna, a true trailblazer whose career journey defies convention and inspires transformation. From his early days in medicine, where he quickly realized that something was missing, to his rapid rise in the pharmaceutical industry, Dr. Avi’s path has been anything but ordinary. He didn’t stop there—his quest for purpose led him into the film industry, where he founded a successful production company, before transitioning into his current role as the founder and CEO of Dr. Avi Global.
Dr. Avi’s story is a powerful example of connecting the dots across seemingly unrelated experiences. In this episode, he shares how his diverse career transitions—from clinical medicine to global leadership—were guided by his discovery of Ikigai, the Japanese concept of finding one’s purpose. Dr. Avi opens up about the challenges and low points he faced, including a period when he was drinking a bottle of wine every night by himself, and how these experiences ultimately fueled his personal and professional growth.
Listeners will gain insight into how Dr. Avi now leverages his vast experience to impact healthcare and leadership on a global scale, transforming businesses and inspiring leaders across various industries. He also shares valuable advice for doctors who feel lost or uninspired, encouraging them to explore new paths and find their own Ikigai.
