Get-togethers for a more intentional life.

While building companies, I was surrounded by some of the smartest people on the planet, and I found myself in the midst of many profound conversations about business, politics, civilization building, and more, but not much depth about personal day-to-day life - what brings people genuine joy, how their romantic relationship is going, relationships with kids and parents, honest reflections on mental and physical health (going beyond biohacking and Oura/Whoop score measuring), and other life-shaping topics.

As a result, I started hosting events all over the world, gathering people from different walks of life to talk about our personal lives and learn from each other. Over time it grew into an informal passion project - Life Salons, named after social and intellectual gatherings in early modern France that played an integral role in the spreading of Enlightenment ideas and shaping the cultural development.

Recently, I took a break for a few years from Life Salons and everything else in life - building businesses, advising, social life, etc. I realized that even in these engaging conversations there was too much focus on external factors “influencing” our lives and little responsibility for our own inner world and how it is actually shaping everything around us. This time allowed me to look inwardly, take inventory and responsibility for who I am, and transform myself to create the life I actually desired.

As I started reengaging the world, I heard from many people who went through different forms of a similar process and, as a result, want to spend more time with like-minded people who started viewing this life through a different lens – seeking truth & clarity about self and the world. And now once again, I feel inspired and energized to host Life Salons - to create space for intimate conversations, share insights, discuss challenges, and help each other. This is a rebirth of Life Salon Collective and into something more formal, more impactful, ongoing, and long-lasting.

Teaming up with my partner, Paula, we have created a new refreshed format. In addition to insightful conversations and the wisdom of the group, we are bringing together many modalities based on the theme of each life salon to help you grow, align, and achieve your goals - meditation coaching, guided meditations, specialized sessions and workshops, tools to help you improve and manage your mental and emotional state, and more.

Our belief is that a in-depth understanding of self and the world around is the foundation for a happy life, as well as a fundamental building block of a new civilization that is emerging right in front of us.
