The art and science of adaptation
I explore how human beings adapt — biologically, psychologically and culturally — to stress, ageing and change, and what allows us not merely to survive, but to thrive.
I read people for a living
My practice
One human being. One living system. Health disciplines divide themselves into schools. The body does not. Different lenses. I begin with the person.

Crossing Borders
What changed
you forever?
Crossing Borders is a podcast about the boundaries we cross, the wisdom we bring back, and what those journeys teach us about being alive.
Who
Swiss by accident, Persian by descent, Siberian by conviction.
Anthropology
Anthropology taught me to enter another person’s world without assuming mine was the right one.
Naturopathy
Naturopathy taught me to look beyond symptoms and ask what the body is trying to tell me.
My travels
My travels taught me that people can live the same human experience and understand it in completely different ways.
