In your quote, you speak of how many of us are feeling removed from our Inner Self. Can you tell us more about what you mean by that and how it inspired you on your path? When I began working as a consultant in the field of Wellbeing, I often emphasized the importance of staying grounded and true to oneself. In a world that constantly pulls us in countless directions, it’s easy to lose our inner compass. Yet, what we need most is a clear and unwavering true north. There is immense power in intentionality—embracing each moment as a sacred opportunity to align with our higher selves and live with purpose. Throughout my journey, many people have shared with me their stories of navigating great change, searching for balance, and rediscovering themselves. As someone deeply engaged in the world of spirituality and meditation for decades, I’ve seen how these practices can profoundly transform lives. At the same time, I’ve observed how technology has become an inseparable part of our everyday experiences, from iPhones to Apple Watches. This intersection inspired me to explore how technology could shift from being perceived as an intrusion to becoming a valuable tool for fostering inner peace—a refuge from the relentless sensory overload of modern life. The journey in life represents many different evolutions of one’s Self. During these moments of life transition, having a safe inner space to recalibrate, restore, and reflect becomes invaluable. By harmonising ancient wisdom with advanced innovation, we strive to guide individuals toward equanimity and the realization of their highest potential. SacredSpace.ai embodies the next chapter of this vision—a venture rooted in the belief that thoughtfully integrated technology can become a powerful catalyst for spiritual growth. We’re particularly interested, as we know our readers will be, by your deep connection to the UAE. Why do you think there’s such a harmony or symbiosis between your work and the ethos of this region? The UAE’s unparalleled commitment to innovation makes it the ideal home for SacredSpace.ai to flourish. Its leadership, governance, and vision set a global standard, and I am honoured to contribute to this extraordinary legacy. Our logo is inspired by the iconic Sheikh Zayed Museum’s falcon-wing structure, symbolizing our roots in Abu Dhabi.
