Hi, I’m Akshay.
My journey from achievement to fulfilment.
01
The Path of Ambition.
By 27, I rose from a humble upbringing in India to become the youngest Director at a global unicorn with 2,000+ employees. My journey included an MBA from IIM Calcutta, scaling Cars24 to unicorn status, and building a multimillion-dollar business for Booking.com.
Despite the success, I felt unfulfilled. I had achieved so much, yet something was missing.
02
The Pursuit of More.
Seeking meaning, I left behind the familiar. I explored startups, acting, storytelling, and creative passions across continents. But no matter how far I traveled or how much I created, the fulfilment I craved remained elusive.
It wasn’t until I turned inward that everything changed.
03
The Power of Stillness.
Through 4,500+ hours of Vipassana meditation and guidance from masters like Ajahn Brahm, Joseph Goldstein, and S.N. Goenka, I found the answers I’d been seeking—not out there, but within. I confronted the questions I had spent a lifetime avoiding:
Who am I beneath the titles? What truly matters? What does it mean to live fully?
Through this journey, I connected with my authentic self, discovered my mission, and unlocked fulfilment that doesn’t depend on achievements but on alignment with who I truly am.
04
Who am I today?
Based in India and the Netherlands, I divide my time between two continents, building meaningful connections and creating impact globally.
I’m a fitness enthusiast, writer, speaker, and seeker who believes in aligning the body, mind, and soul to live an extraordinary life.
If you’re here, I believe it’s for a reason. You’re not looking for quick fixes—you’re ready to explore, grow, and create a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.
If you’re ready to stop searching for fulfillment and start living it, I’m here to guide you. Let’s create the life you were meant to live.
Curious what really shaped me.
Professional.
