The notion of Inner Economics was birthed in 2006 after ten years of actively exploring the spiritual and material worlds. It was the result of a unique moment of inquiry when I asked one of my mentors Satish Kumar how to bridge my two passions in life, economics and spirituality. His response was simple: “Reclaim the essence of economics as management of the household and go within”.

From then on Inner Economics has taken a life of its own. It has bridged into Soulcraft, Mentoring, Workshops and Money Coaching, all of these as an initial steps into helping people create a healthier relationship to money, life and the material world. By doing so money can find its due place in the greater conext of life and people can step towards who they really are and what they came to do connecting to an experience of Embodied Sustainability that helps people tangibly connect to what sustains them in life.

Philosophy:   

    Embodied Sustainability: Growing an experience of sustainability from within.
  • Enoughness: There is enough, all the time.
  • Connection to Life: Everything we need to succeed is already here.
