What if your greatest heartbreak or lowest moment could become the launchpad for your deepest healing? In this deeply moving and spiritually charged episode, I sit down with my longtime friend and radiant soul, Ashok Thakur—cybersecurity CEO by day, spiritual teacher by soul.

From growing up with 8 siblings in a small Himalayan town, to surviving a near-death experience, to losing everything overnight after a painful divorce… Ashok has lived through every kind of breakdown—and emerged in full technicolor joy.

We dive into the heart of what it means to break free from generational and cultural karmas, how to face triggers with love, rewire your beliefs, raise conscious children, and step fully into the light—even if you've walked through the darkest shadows.

What you'll get out of this episode…

  • What happens when your carefully built life suddenly falls apart—and why it might be the best thing for your soul
  • The surprising spiritual lesson Ashok learned after facing his near-death experience
  • How to break free from patterns you didn’t choose, but inherited
  • The real reason joy might feel out of reach—and how to reframe your relationship to it
  • How to raise emotionally free kids (even if you weren’t raised that way yourself)
  • Why healing others might be the key to finally healing yourself
  • A powerful new way to respond to triggers—without losing your center
  • What it actually takes to rewrite your story after betrayal, loss, or heartbreak
  • Key Timestamps
