In this week’s episode we are joined by Aaniya, a coffee-loving doctor from London who shares her journey from the very beginning. Listen as we discuss her life as a medic, a creative and also touch on her goal to make an impact at scale through bringing beautiful design to medical products & services. We delve into why it is so important to find happiness & contentment in our careers. Most importantly, we come to appreciate that as the course of our life is constantly changing, so will our priorities - thus we should not allow our past to restrict the direction we want to steer our careers.

We talk about the pressures doctors face from society, friends and family as they take a step away from the hospital to pursue interests in healthcare that are more aligned with their passions and innate personality.      

Tune in as we discover how a year at Imperial Business School re-ignited Dr Aaniya’s love for creative problem solving and how she plans to harness those skills further to create sustainable solutions to common healthcare problems. 

This is an amazing episode that we all need to hear, especially for those whose feel that their happiness and interests may be found outside of the walls of clinical medicine. 

Dr Aaniya Sherwani is a UK born medical doctor who graduated from Imperial College London in 2018. Having completed her foundation training in the NHS, she has decided to challenge herself by pursuing a career in healthcare product management which she hopes will combine her clinical & creative selves. She currently works as an advisor to health-tech startups and is developing a passion project on the side - “The Brainy Co” - a social venture creating thoughtfully designed apparel to fund global access to education. 

In her free time she enjoys writing & painting which she shares on her instagram blog @littlecoffeedoc
