Welcome to episode 45 of the Mindful & Driven podcast! It's all about how to not lose sight of what really matters whilst chasing your dreams.
Episode 45’s guest is Vishaal Virani. He’s the head of UK Health at YouTube. Vishal had an interesting career path. He started off as a doctor then he went to management consulting before specializing in health tech and became an expert in that area. So much so that he was invited to give lectures at different universities to speak out about how much the digital revolution is helping people in the health industry.
With his background, his role at YouTube seems like a perfect fit, and his mission is to help people like you and me find the videos that will actually make a difference and that are reliable in the information that they give so that we can be better informed and make better health-conscious decisions.
