What if your suffering wasn’t a disorder — but a disconnection?
In this powerful episode of The xMonks Drive, Kavyal Sedani sits down with Gaurav Arora to explore the invisible threads between mental illness, faith, ego, and healing.
She once wrote letters to strangers just to serve Oprah a glass of water. That moment changed everything — but it wasn’t magic. It was alignment.
From anxiety to ambition, shame to spirituality — this conversation unpacks the stories we silently live by, and how to finally rewrite them.
🧠 This isn’t therapy. It’s truth work.
