In this inspiring episode of Trailblazers & Titans, host Dr. Keith Haney sits down with Kaushik to explore the profound impact of pursuing a career driven by passion rather than money. Kaushik Guha shares the best piece of advice he has ever received: focus on doing what you love, and the money will follow. He reflects on the mentors who have shaped his path, including his father and a former boss, and recounts his journey from earning an MBA in finance and becoming a CPA to his current role at St. James School of Medicine.

Kaushik highlights the unique aspects of St. James, a family-owned institution that prioritizes people over profit. He discusses the organizational shifts that helped the school overcome financial challenges and adapt to market changes. Kaushik also addresses the external pressures medical schools face and how St. James differentiates itself by providing affordable and accessible medical education. The school serves as a beacon of upward socioeconomic mobility, offering scholarships to middle-class families and advocating for education as a right, not a privilege. With plans to expand their campus and form new partnerships, St. James School of Medicine is committed to improving the education system and creating opportunities for those who have none.
