ABOUT THIS EPISODE
I had the privilege of speaking with Dr. Niranjan Seshadri, MD, JD — a rare blend of interventional cardiologist, healthcare entrepreneur, legal expert, and thought leader at the intersection of medicine, AI, and human empathy.
He's trained at the Cleveland Clinic and Harvard Medical School, with a JD from Georgetown and an LL.M. from UC Berkeley specialising in AI and Technology Law.
Dr. Seshadri is Co-Founder & CEO of HelixaHealth.ai and Nectara.ai. He is also co-author of the upcoming book “Lead with Empathy” alongside negotiation legend Chris Voss, and author of Himalayan Tsunami.
In this deep and thoughtful conversation, we explore:
• Why empathy is not a soft skill but a strategic advantage in leadership and healthcare
• Building AI platforms that put patients and human connection at the center
• The ethical and regulatory challenges of AI in medicine
• Lessons from medicine, law, entrepreneurship, and personal resilience
• What it truly means to lead with both intellect and heart in an age of rapid technological change
This episode is for anyone interested in the future of healthcare, conscious leadership, or the balance between cutting-edge technology and deep humanity.

Huge thanks to Dr Niranjan for an insightful and inspiring discussion.
