Episode 284 is about finding your way.

Being comfortable with the uncomfortable. Dr. Calvin Sun has been working as an Emergency Physician and Clinical Assistant Professor in Emergency Medicine for most of his career, but he always knew that there was something else for him out there; one day he got it! His love for travel came after losing a bet to explore Egypt, where his curiosity took hold and never let go since then. Fast forward now, Monsoon Diaries was born – it is an organization founded by people who are dedicated to exploring life in its fullest form while discovering the globe’s unexplored corners.
