S3 Episode 26 | US Doctor Became a Bengali Maa: The Shishur Shebai Story feat. Dr. Harisson

Join Meghdut with Dr. Michelle Harrison, an American physician who founded Shishur Shebai, an inclusive home for girls in Calcutta.

She shares the incredible story of her "spiritual calling," why she decided to never leave India (and still sleeps on the floor with her girls), and the immense danger she faced fighting corruption and death threats in Behala.

Learn about her deep Bengali connection, her use of cutting-edge tech for disabled children, and her personal journey from New York to becoming a dedicated Bengali Maa (mother).
A powerful story of sacrifice, commitment, and love for Calcutta's most vulnerable children.
