Скачать или смотреть The Curious Case of… “But Why?” ft. Swanand Kelkar

Why is it so hard to find a clear reason when it comes to the mind?

In this episode, Ira talks with Swanand Kelkar about his experience, being the child of someone living with a mental illness and how his understanding of mental health has shifted over the years. From searching for neat explanations to recognising that sometimes, there isn’t a simple “why.”

It’s a conversation about letting go of the need to make everything make sense, and finding peace — and even strength — in that uncertainty.

Because sometimes, curiosity isn’t about answers.
It’s about learning to sit with the questions.
