I talk to Dr Ranj Sagoo, a GP, coach, and hypnotherapist from Birmingham in the UK. He's also an extremely talented artist. Ranj talks about wanting to help people, working in orthopaedics and general practice, and his journey into coaching and hypnotherapy. He goes above and beyond for his patients and is writing a book that helps people to beat their limiting beliefs.
