About Raj
A founder who has lived the work.
I have experienced burnout more than once as a tech founder. After losing the company, I drew on my coaching background and my study with spiritual teachers around the world to reconnect with my values and rebuild a sense of self.
That experience shapes the conversations I lead about purpose, alignment and finding a way forward.
