Namrata thought of herself as an average corporate woman with a loving partner & family, no children (by choice) and a travel bug but with no real story to tell, till one day, she and her husband were caught and injured in one of the worst earthquakes Taiwan had ever seen. How did they come out of it alive?
Did a fight-or-flight body response actually kick in when it was supposed to?
Which thoughts helped her stay motivated to survive?
Did the fact that she nearly died, change anything about how she thinks about life's purpose, day to day life or choosing to not have children?
She answers all of this in our episode and more! Through vivid storytelling and raw emotion, Nam recounts the immediate aftermath of the quake – the fear, the confusion, and the desperate fight for survival in her memoir 'Shaken not broken: within and without'.
