VAYYU®

✨ 👉 Wednesday Wisdom: The Beautiful Madness of Entrepreneurship VAYYU® & Impact The VAYYU Foundation® as I sit here on this flight following my dreams 🌍 What gets you out of bed in the morning? 👈👈👈 What drives you to push forward, even when logic (and maybe a few sane people) tell you to stop? 🛑 Because let’s be real—you don’t have to be crazy (Paagal hai) to start a business or a foundation… but it definitely speeds up the process 🚅 Every day, you step into the ring, take life on—full 12 rounds, no shortcuts, no breathers. Logic says, "Stay down." But instead, you wipe the sweat off, grin, and ask, is that all you’ve got?🥊 And that’s when the magic happens ✨✨✨🌅🌆 Dr Rakish Rana Marc Rowley Sanjib Sahota Atul Lakhani Derick M. The impossible unfolds. The right people appear. Beauty sneaks up on you when you least expect it. Doors you never knew existed suddenly open. It’s not for the faint of heart. But for those who embrace the madness, push through the chaos, and keep showing up? It’s the most beautiful life. So tell me—what keeps you going? #WhatDrivesYou #KeepGoing #PurposeDriven

💙Authentic Purpose: Are You Brave Enough to be the unapologetic YOU? I am thrilled to announce my appearance on the FLOW community PODCAST with Camilo Torres where I had the incredible opportunity to share my journey through the fashion world and beyond at Soho House & Co This episode is, without a doubt, is the most vulnerable and meaningful 35 minutes I've ever shared personally. I dare you to listen to the the full episode if you really want to get to know me and see who I actually was and who I have become!⚡️ My path began in the competitive fashion industry, where I clawed my way to the top, driven by ego and a false identity. This relentless pursuit led to significant achievements but also left me feeling disconnected from my true self. It was only by stripping back these layers and embracing vulnerability that I found my authentic purpose. On the podcast, I delved into the story of founding VAYYU® my organic and ethical luxury brand. Vayyu was born out of a desire to create fashion that respects both people and the planet and initiated your journey to seek beyond the veil. Building this brand was not just a business endeavor but a personal transformation towards authenticity, spirituality sustainability. The journey didn't stop there. Realizing the broader impact I could make, I established The VAYYU Foundation® to support environmental and social causes. This foundation became a testament to the belief that I can change the status quo about underserved communities in conservation, to be a force for good, leading to the creation of two significant projects: UOCEAN® 2050 and UEARTH® 2050 UOCEAN focuses on ocean conservation, while UEARTH is dedicated to reforestation and holistic wellness. My conversation with Camilo on the FLOW podcast was a real milestone market in my life. Camilo's special way of making you feel comfortable, energy that encourages openness, allowed me to speak with vulnerability and honesty about my journey. It was an experience that not only brought clarity to my own path but also emphasized the power of being true to oneself.
