What does it mean to measure your success by joy? Are we addicted to the stress of life? Can we actually experience more joy by prioritizing it each day? These are all questions Seema and Dinesh dive into during their conversation with Loka Pandya, also known as, “Chief Joy Officer”. Loka’s mission is to spread joy and inspire people to live a more joyful life by taking a structured approach to joy. Through his own healing experience, he found the profound impact of joy in his life and cultivating it daily through proper strategies. He’s sharing his findings and practical tips on how you can do the same in your own life. 

About Loka:

At the age of 13, Loka Pandya faced a life-altering personal tragedy. In response, he channeled his energy into work, becoming an entrepreneur at just 17 by co-founding his first specialty retail business. By his early twenties, Loka had built a multi-million-dollar hotel hospitality company, which he later sold. However, despite his outward success, he often found himself overwhelmed, anxious, and burned out.

It was during his lowest point that Loka realized something was missing. This led him on a profound journey to discover not only the meaning of life but the key to genuine fulfillment and lasting joy. Over two decades of research into Western and Eastern healing practices, Loka developed a formula for joy—one that transformed his life and his approach to business.

Today, Loka is sharing his powerful insights with others, helping entrepreneurs find success in both their professional and personal lives. His work focuses on cultivating joy and mental well-being as key components of sustainable success. In addition to his speaking engagements and joy workshops, he focuses on raising investors for lucrative glamping, hotels, technology, and wellness startups, applying the principles of joy and fulfillment to every venture.

When he's not sharing his joy formula, Loka can be found delivering bursts of joy throughout the streets of Dallas—passing out bubbles from his Delorean Time Machine, Batmobile, or Firetruck. His passion for giving back extends globally, as he fundraises for Orphan Sponsorship International in India, Bulgaria, and Sri Lanka, where 100% of the proceeds go directly to the children. Loka loves traveling, spending time with the joy of his life, his wife Millie, and yes, he loves to dance! He is also currently working on his first book.
