From Monk Mindset Founder

I did a lot of different things before I entered the monastery.

I helped companies raise lots of money as an investment banker, got important bills passed when I worked in politics, and got fancy degrees from Harvard and Oxford.

I relentlessly chased success and pleasure but it was destroying me and the people around me.

Then, I had an intense spiritual experience that changed everything.

Soon, I left it all to join a monastery, where I lived for over 7 years with only limited contact with the outside world.

I eventually discerned out of the monastery and started SENT Ventures, where I’ve been fortunate to help hundreds of busy founders and CEOs build routine, peace, and meaning into their careers and personal lives.

Through Monk Mindset, I’ve distilled lessons from the monastery and executive coaching to help busy professionals, parents, and students to gain peace and productivity.

I hope and pray these resources are helpful for your journey!
