When I became an entrepreneur, integrating my entrepreneur self and my physician self was complicated. I knew how to be either one, but being both didn’t come naturally—I felt pulled in opposite directions. 

But I knew I had to figure out how to be both a physician and a coach. And how to be a wife and an entrepreneur. Bringing our whole multi-passionate selves to something is part of creating successful careers and satisfying relationships! 

In today’s episode of The Intimate Marriage Podcast, I have a wonderful conversation with Dr. Pranay Parikh about bringing all parts of ourselves to a marriage (especially as multi-passionate people). We discuss the way his marriage developed alongside his career as a medical doctor and now, a real estate investor and entrepreneur.

  • Learning how to bring your whole self to your relationship
  • Why Dr. Parikh is actually grateful for a rejection in his career
  • How medicine has played a role in his marriage
