Poetry to heal, reflect, and rediscover your true self.
For the first chapter of my life, I checked every box of success:
Columbia-trained.
Hopkins-trained.
Vascular neurosurgeon.
Key opinion leader.
Ironman triathlete.
But even after all that, I found myself asking: ‘Why don’t I feel peace?’
In the pursuit of achievement, I had buried emotions, ignored my body’s whispers, and lost connection to my true self.
This collection emerged from my journey of unlearning, healing, and reconnecting — to myself, to nature, and to something greater than me. These poems reflect my path of bringing the heart back into a life driven by intellect and achievement. They are an invitation for you to do the same: to slow down, listen within, explore your inner world — your emotions, beliefs, wisdom within — laying the foundation for true transformation and rediscover your joy, peace, and vitality.
Brain Surgery For The Heart is a bridge for those ready to trade self-sacrifice for alignment and redefine success to embrace wholeness, balance, and connection to the greater Universe. From this way of being, unlock your fullest potential and step into a life of deeper fulfillment, abundant thriving, and true harmony.
The medicine, the wisdom, is all within you. This book is here to help you remember that.
