On Expectations: Work, Family & Gen Z. Welcome Dr. Anurag Mehta on Ayushi Rawat Talk Show

Описание: Welcome to an enlightening episode on *ARTS Ayushi Rawat Talk Show*, where we dive deep into the interplay of family expectations, workplace dynamics, Gen Z drive, mindfulness and spiritual leadership—with our distinguished guest, Anurag Mehta (Industrial Psychologist, Executive Coach & Meditation Facilitator).

Why this conversation matters
We all carry expectations—at home, at work, and within ourselves. Often, they clash. Families expect support, contribution, presence; workplaces expect performance, adaptability, innovation. Gen Z brings its own values, its own lens. Meanwhile, mindfulness and spiritual leadership offer lenses to navigate this complex matrix. In this discussion, Anurag uncovers how these threads interweave, and how we can transform from reactive to conscious.

What we cover in this episode

Family vs Work expectations**: How the invisible demands in a joint family (or even independent living) impact our professional lives—and vice-versa. What happens when your family looks to you to be the “pillar”, while your office expects you to be the “performer”?
The Gen Z factor: How younger professionals entering the workforce bring new norms—higher self- awareness, desire for purpose, preference for flexible work, digital nativity—and how older generations can understand and align with this shift.
Mindfulness at work & home: Anurag’s research shows meditation, purposeful reflection and self-awareness impact emotional intelligence, decision-making and stress resilience. (See his work on “Impact of Meditation on Emotional Intelligence of Working Professionals” & “Spiritual Leadership and Organisational Well-Being”.)
Spiritual leadership in a corporate world: What does it mean to lead—or to live—with values, purpose and consciousness in environments driven by KPIs, deadlines and competition? How does bringing your full self (including spiritual wisdom) change how you handle expectations?

Practical take-aways for YOU: Actionable tips for professionals navigating these spheres—whether you’re managing family pressures while building a career, leading a Gen Z team, or seeking more meaning in your work.

Stories & research insights: Anurag brings real-world examples from his consulting, coaching and organisational research—especially in Indian contexts where culture, families and work overlap in unique ways.

Who should watch this:
• Working professionals (especially in India, but globally too) juggling family + career.
• Emerging leaders & Gen Z seeking to understand how expectations work around them.
• HR / L&D practitioners looking to integrate mindfulness, values and generational dynamics into training.
• Anyone interested in leadership beyond titles—where the “inner self” meets the “outer system”.

Key is this:
Expectations are not just external demands—they’re lenses through which we interpret reality. By understanding them consciously (via mindfulness) and aligning them with our deeper values (via spiritual leadership), we can move from feeling “pushed by expectations” to being “led by purpose”.

“Meditation is the most effortless thing to do. It is like watching yourself like a CCTV.” — Anurag Mehta
“When you carry the weight of family expectations into your workplace, you become a bridge between two worlds.” — paraphrased insight.
