Extended guided meditations are coming soon on my Substack and website www.saferspace.info In this episode, Mariam is joined by Dr. Jeevan Swamy, a GP, health inequalities lead, and tech entrepreneur. Dr. Swamy shares his fascinating journey from a religious upbringing to becoming a ‘Christian atheist’ whose moral lens is deeply shaped by values of trust, compassion, and service. KEY TAKEAWAYS Meaningful healthcare starts with building trust through a genuine interest in a patient’s unique story beyond their clinical symptoms. Many men, particularly in South Asian cultures, struggle with mental health because they equate their worth solely with economic provision, leading to suppressed emotions and burnout. Effective leadership in high-pressure environments like the NHS should prioritize psychological safety and the ability to admit mistakes over traditional, hierarchical authority. Showing vulnerability as a leader or practitioner is not a weakness; it is a strength that encourages others to speak up and seek the support they need. True advocacy for staff involves lowering the barrier for entry to express concerns, ensuring that even the most quiet or marginalised voices are heard and acted upon. BEST MOMENTS "Trust is at the heart of everything that we do. It’s all about creating those kinds of spaces of trust for people." "A man isn’t just worth what his paycheck is, he’s also worth who he is as a human being." "There’s no one pill that’s going to solve life, the solutions to life come in the hard work." "You have to shout, and you have to shout even louder to be heard. Keep shouting until someone listens." "The leaders always have to do more of the work to make people feel comfortable. You have to make yourself approachable." HOST BIO Mariam is a GP trainee in Wales passionate about improving our healthcare colleagues' wellbeing. She has experience on the Schwartz Round Steering group and as a facilitator for her health board, and she created and led the Balint Group Programme for Foundation Doctors in her hospital. These are regular spaces for healthcare professionals to speak about real issues that affect their well-being amongst colleagues to improve mutual support and camaraderie in the workplace. She also holds qualifications in Life Coaching and healthcare leadership and management. Whatever your reason for joining us on this podcast, we are glad you have taken the time.
