Over the past decade, I have devoted myself to a field that is both timeless and urgently modern — the Science of Happiness. While my professional journey in public service allowed me to lead complex systems and design impactful policies, I found myself increasingly drawn to the human side of success — the emotional wellbeing, mindset, and meaning behind it all. That curiosity led me to the emerging field of Positive Psychology — the scientific study of what makes life worth living.

As I delved deeper, I realized that happiness isn’t a feel-good luxury; it is a vital force that drives how we live, work, relate, and lead. I began to study the research of leading thinkers like Martin Seligman, Sonja Lyubomirsky, Barbara Fredrickson, and Tal Ben-Shahar. I immersed myself in neuroscience, behavioral economics, and mindfulness-based interventions. I engaged not just with Western frameworks but also drew from Indian philosophical traditions that have long emphasized inner joy, purpose, and self-awareness.

This deep inquiry culminated in the authorship of five books that bring happiness science out of the lab and into everyday life. Titles like A Happier You, Seeds of Happiness, Mindset for Success and Happiness, and A Masterclass in Happiness offer practical, evidence-based strategies for boosting daily wellbeing — from gratitude rituals and flow states to mindset rewiring and social connection. These are not abstract philosophies. They are tools — actionable, research-backed, and designed for real people living real lives.

My books have resonated with a wide audience — from civil service aspirants and corporate professionals to educators, administrators, and everyday readers navigating stress, uncertainty, and the quest for purpose. But writing was just the beginning. I wanted to take these insights to the frontlines — to classrooms, boardrooms, and training halls.

Today, my mission is to democratize the science of happiness — to make it simple, usable, and relevant for all. I conduct interactive workshops and keynote sessions across India, engaging with students in universities, professionals in corporations, and officers in government academies. Whether it’s a session at the Indian School of Business, the Management Development Institute, the National Police Academy, or the Lal Bahadur Shastri Academy of Administration, my approach remains the same: turn insights into transformation.

Each session is crafted with care — blending engaging storytelling, real-life anecdotes from my years in public service, humor, and hands-on practices like gratitude journaling, visualization, strength-based feedback, and cognitive reframing. Participants walk away not just with inspiration, but with tools — habits they can implement the next morning to start building a better life from the inside out.

I firmly believe happiness is not a soft skill — it’s a core skill. Research across the world shows that happier individuals are more productive at work, more creative in solving problems, more resilient in the face of setbacks, and even healthier physically. In teams, happiness enhances cooperation, trust, and innovation. In families, it improves relationships and communication. In leadership, it cultivates empathy, authenticity, and long-term impact. In governance, it anchors policies in human dignity.

And most importantly, in life, happiness brings us something we all seek — peace of mind, clarity of direction, and a sense of meaning that outlasts circumstances.

In a world obsessed with speed, achievement, and comparison, I help people pause — to reflect, reset, and realign with what truly matters. My specialization in the science of happiness is not just academic — it’s personal. It’s practical. It’s a toolkit for living a fuller, richer, more meaningful life.

Because in the end, success without joy is hollow. And happiness is not the destination — it’s the path.
