Heartbreak Isn't Just A Metaphor, with Dr. Sandeep Jauhar

META PERFORMANCE SHOW | The term "heartbreak" isn't just a figure of speech, it can actually be quite literal. Dr. Sandeep Jauhar takes us through his fascinating research on Broken Heart Syndrome AKA Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy--a phenomenon in which grief or other emotional upset can cause dramatic physical changes to the size and shape of one's heart and potentially lead to heart failure. Dr. Jauhar and host Jason Jaggard also discuss the journalistic element of being a doctor, self-limitation and the importance of taking risks, having to work harder as an immigrant in America and the parallels between the doctor-patient and coach-coachee relationships. We hope you enjoy!
