Enjoy this episode from our ongoing series from our time at Podcast Row.

Our guest today is the author of the book Undying Optimism. It’s a book detailing the path of giving meaning to your life and finding your power from the darkness.

Have you ever asked yourself and sat with the question “What have you found to be most meaningful in your life?”

Meet JV Bharathan. He found himself in an arranged marriage with no real purpose or direction in his life. He made the difficult choice to leave that marriage (something that was otherwise unheard of in his community) and this decision landed him in jail.

From there, he became bankrupt and homeless. Only until more adversity hit him like a ton of bricks, as he puts it, with the birth of his new son, did he decide to turn things around for the better.
