About this listen
In this episode of Ripples: Physician Well-Being, Ajeya P. Joshi, MD, orthopedic spine surgeon and lifestyle medicine specialist, shares a powerful perspective on navigating the constant currents of medicine and life. Drawing on the concept of salutogenesis, Dr. Joshi reframes well-being not as reaching a place of calm, but as learning to thrive within ongoing change—reminding us that we are always “in the river,” and the goal is to learn to swim better.
Through reflections on his parents’ legacy, his journey into lifestyle medicine, and his work with patients and trainees, Dr. Joshi explores how connection, self-care and purpose can anchor physicians during times of transition. He also offers a practical “pebble” for listeners: to define internal measures of success, give and receive grace, and approach each day with intention.
