I help conscious, creative entrepreneurs — founders and CEOs — bring your deepest, most profound vision for your business, and our world, to life. We infuse the world of your business with those qualities — integrity and wholeness, generosity, kindness, prosperity and creative freedom — that shape the world in which you want to live.
From books and other published materials, to beautifully designed programs, to intimate mentoring partnerships, I offer diverse pathways to clarify your most radiant vision for your business and bring it to life, drawing on your own genius and all the multidimensional potentials you and your business possess.
Together, we create a field of heightened power, potentiality and freedom for you to grow your business your way — in harmony with your vision and values, in partnership with your soul, and in service to the Sacred.
I am a business artist, mentor and soul alchemist; your collaborative creative partner, who serves your genius & that of your business so both can flourish.
I work with you to craft the world of your business so that it nurtures and protects its gifts and yours. This allows you and your business to become beacons of inspiration, radiant prosperity, joy and freedom. With the soul of your business, you create a world that nourishes each person whom your business is here to serve.
Whether enrolling in a self-study program or entering into a private mentoring partnership with me, each part of the pathway is lit by your vision and values, your most profound desires for yourself and your world, and by your soul’s purposes and the purposes of your business.
As you and your business grow into the organic pattern of your being, you will experience the depth and breadth of your own wisdom, power, beauty and creative radiance. You’ll build a world, in your business, that’s designed to fully support you and your gifts.
I offer multidimensional skills and wisdom gleaned from decades of experience with thousands of clients — many of whom work with me for years because they find such deep value in our collaboration.
A bit about what led me here…
I was born in Bombay — an island metropolis where immense wealth and devastating poverty co-exist in an uneasy negotiation. It’s a city of vibrant neighborhoods, encircled by an increasingly polluted harbour that opens into the Indian Ocean. A city of contradictions — the financial hub of an ancient culture that’s emerged from a colonial past to chant the friable mantras of capitalism and consumerism.
I now live on a very different island, off the misty west coast of British Columbia, in Canada.
Still surrounded by the sea, looking out to a horizon ringed by snow-capped blue mountains. Eagles and giant cedar trees shelter my home. My beloved sons and their families live nearby.
Both the home of my birth and the home of my heart have informed my life’s work, and anchored my commitment to help shape a world of peace and truth, freedom, love, and prosperity for all beings.
Other things you might want to know about me
My published work includes several digital multimedia programs, my award-winning book, To Be Soul, Do Soul, my best-selling book, The World of Your Business Playbook, a novel, two collections of poetry, as well as essays, fiction and poetry.
I am inspired by my life-long explorations in and contributions to the fields of feminist entrepreneurship, the relational field, multi-dimensional consciousness, subtle energy and generative co-creation. And by cross-cultural pollination, music, Nature, the arts, love in all its multitude of forms, and conversations that meander through wildly varied terrains.
I love writing, reading, poetry, the ever-changing seascapes and temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest. I love exploring different cultures, cuisines, world views; connecting with people whose lives & experiences offer unique perspectives on the art of being human, on the art of being. I’m eternally curious — an adventurer and pioneer in inner realms, a lifelong learner. I savour the spacious quiet of early mornings, and music ranging from Leonard Cohen to Bach to the mournful beauty of fado.
I love books. I was that kid who read all the time — in bed, under the covers, with a flashlight. Walking down the street, lost in story. My library at home includes collections of poetry, memoirs, essays, deep ecology, embodied spirituality, reference books, fairy tales and myths from around the world. Books on the craft of writing, creativity, improvisation, play, music and movement, and experiential anatomy.
Above all, I love stories, and the art of storytelling — the making and building of creative culture through the stories we shape. We build our world, our lives and our businesses, one story at a time. We can choose to step out of those stories that bind and bedevil us, and step into ones that embody our widest horizons.
My credentials, influences, and sources of inspiration
- I hold a BSc in Psychology and BA and MFA degrees in Creative Writing.
- I have taught Creative Writing in university programs and at writing workshops and conferences.
- I have pioneered, created, and taught dozens of transformational programs as well as teacher trainings in energy alchemy and practical mysticism, soul development, creative manifestation, and soul-infused entrepreneurship.
- I founded a teaching and research facility for spiritual seekers of every faith and perspective.
- I’ve been Writer-in-Residence for CBC Radio, Canada’s national broadcaster.

- My spiritual roots are deeply embedded in my Indian birthplace and culture. Ultimately, though, the body of work I’ve developed over the past 50+ years, and the clients and students who have so generously invited me into their lives and businesses, have been my greatest teachers. Through inner explorations, research, and the privilege of working with thousands of clients and students, I’ve pioneered a methodology for creative transformation & soul business alchemy that serves a global community of freedom seekers.
My life’s work is crafting and teaching practical ways to bring our most radiant visions down to earth, and to offer them to the world as powerful agents of the Sacred in our own communities.
I’d be honored to work with you.
I champion and mentor practical visionaries — those storymakers who are actively engaged in creating a world that nurtures and supports all life, and in sharing their art, their love, and their genius in service to the Sacred.
If this is you, I look forward to welcoming you into the world of my business.
