We often think of success as a straight line—top grades, a high-powered career, and constant achievement. But what happens when your soul calls you in a completely different direction? In this episode, I sit down with Andrew Keaveney, a Stanford graduate who left the traditional path of corporate success to study at the Art of Living International Center in Bangalore, India. Now the Director of Digital Media at the Art of Living Retreat Center in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Andrew combines his creative talents with deep spiritual teachings to help high achievers find balance.

We explore the Sahaj Samadhi meditation method, the power of Sanskrit as a language of consciousness, and why we need to normalize "energy management" just as much as time management. Andrew also shares accessible breathwork techniques to combat fatigue and anxiety.

What you’ll learn:

• The "Happiness Lane": Why life is multidimensional and how to nurture your inner joy alongside your career.
• Instant Calm: A guided walkthrough of Alternate Nostril Breathing to reset your nervous system in minutes.
• The Myth of the Busy Mind: How to overcome the belief that you "can't" meditate because your brain is too loud.
• Dry January & Beyond: How to use the new year as a launchpad for wellness, including tips on mocktails and community support.
