EP 294 - Rest. In. Peace. (An Uncomfortable Conversation We Need to Have)
Episode 294 of Paper Napkin Wisdom with Govindh Jayaraman leans into discomfort.

It’s a call to sit with hard truths, practice inclusion, and choose optimism even in grief. Leadership isn’t just about growth — it’s about how we face the conversations most avoid.
