Wings
Year 1991 marked the beginning of a New India, a year that kick started a democratisation process of a new kind, one that rode the waves of Internet, Television Broadcast Networks & Mobile Telecommunications. This has shaped a new generation of youth deeply anchored in Indian values yet having global aspirations, a cohort for whom the world is a playground. The Wings podcast is an attempt to bring forth stories of these youth where they share how they see themselves and the world they inhabit, their hopes and fears, their dreams and aspirations. It's an attempt to 'discover the extraordinary in the ordinary' and is driven by a belief that ‘the future is born in the web of human conversations'.
The storytellers in the Wings Podcast are Young Indians from across socio-economic strata, from urban and semi-urban India, ones who have found their own Wings or are in the process of discovering them with an aim to take them far and wide.

S4E13: Mind your.....'Mind'
It is said that human mind is fuelled by an intricate triad of thoughts, emotions and actions. Further, research has pointed to primacy of emotions in this triad as the cause as well as consequence of our realities. What are emotions, what do they do to us? Why do we need a rich emotional vocabulary to examine our everyday experiences? What is the ‘disorder-development continuum’ in the field of Mental Health? What role do Mental Health professionals play in today’s world? What are their anchors, aspirations and anxieties?
To explore this subject and more, here’s a conversation with Manjiri Gokhale, a clinical psychologist and counsellor with over two decades of practice, currently working as a Consultant at the Institute of Psychological Health (IPH), Thane. “Being a hands-on mother to two young girls gives me many opportunities to walk-the-talk and learn from the journey of parenting,” she says.
