The Samarpan Podcast with Rohan Joshi

We recently hosted comedian and writer Rohan Joshi at Samarpan Recovery & De-addiction Services in Mumbai for an honest and insightful conversation about mental health. The discussion was led by our clinical psychologist, Raksha Rajesh, and covered everything from therapy and grief to career choices, storytelling, and finding balance in life. Over the course of the episode, Rohan opens up about his personal journey - losing a parent, discovering therapy, working through nine years of self-discovery, leaving engineering to pursue comedy, and navigating life after AIB. Together, Rohan and Raksha explore topics like:

• How to find the right therapist and why it’s like building a relationship
• The importance of support systems during tough times
• Lessons from therapy and how it can help manage grief and anxiety
• What does success mean beyond professional milestones
• Humor as a coping mechanism for life’s challenges

This conversation is a reminder that mental health struggles are universal and that seeking support is a powerful first step toward healing.
We’re also excited to share that next month, actor Arjun Gupta will be joining us to talk about men’s mental health, experiences with clinical depression, and creator ethics and responsibilities.
