Learning From the School of Life with Shailja Dixit at Curio Digital Therapeutics Inc.

Education is foundational to success, and while a formal education is valuable to a lucrative professional journey, sometimes life experience is the best teacher.


On this episode, I’m joined by Shailja Dixit, CEO at Curio Digital Therapeutics Inc., to hear about the lessons her life experiences taught her, and how those lessons cultivated passions that she has since pursued in her personal and professional life.


The “school of life” imparted several valuable lessons to Shailja:


- Never stop viewing yourself as a student, and maintain a lifelong passion for learning.

- Tenacity is a valuable asset that will help you navigate life’s many hurdles and obstacles.

- In a world that often stacks the deck against women, having access to mental health resources is essential.

- Never hesitate to pursue your passions.


To Shailja, Indianness is a blend of grit, commitment to education and dedication to community.
