“An extraordinary intellect, education, work ethic, and capacity for stamina under stress will not make you immune to the wear-and-tear effects of a mismanaged lifestyle.”

–Adapted from Surgeon Darrell Campbell

Welcome to my site!  I am Gaurava Agarwal and I am a physician coach committed to helping individuals find joy and professional satisfaction from their careers. As an occupational and organizational psychiatrist, I specialize in helping workers and workplaces achieve optimal performance.  I believe coaching and consulting has the ability to assist individuals change both themselves and the broken systems in which we have been often been forced to work.

I want to share with you my model of how I can be helpful to you or your organization in achieving professional and personal fulfillment.  I call it the “microwave popcorn model of resilience.”  In this model, if we think about ourselves as the unpopped kernels inside a bag of popcorn, we realize that to avoid becoming “popped or burned out” we have only three options:  get out of the microwave, turn the heat down in the microwave, or learn what allows those unpopped kernels at the bottom of every bag of popcorn to remain that way.  I use that model in our discussions with individuals and organizations as we take a deep dive into each of those three options to take back control of our personal and professional lives!  I can work with individuals to help them consider their own roles in maintaining well-being and I can also consult with organizations to help address those factors that lead to a thriving culture.
