  • I took a Sabbatical for Volunteering (taught children at Isha Home School), Travel (50+ countries and counting), Advanced Yoga & Meditation courses (Lived at Isha Yoga Center & Ashram), Mountaineering (Climbed up to Mount Everest Base Camp), and Silence (a 10 day silence journey). It continues to be the best gift I ever gave to myself for my self discovery, for exploring the seeds of my interests outside of work, and for exploring my life-leadership identity.
