My work and  approach  


I am a Leadership Coach  Rooted In Indic Wisdom


I work with CXOs, founders, and high-level decision-makers to navigate transitions, strengthen clarity, and lead with authenticity—without the burnout or internal dissonance that often comes with success.

The depth of Indian wisdom meets the precision of modern coaching in my approach. Over a decade learning from rare Indic wisdom teachers, integrating timeless principles with contemporary leadership situations and strategies. My work blends deep self-awareness, cognitive mastery, and practical leadership tools to create real, lasting transformation—not just short-term success.

Why Yogic Wisdom ? What/Who Is A Yogi Coach?

Leadership isn’t just about making decisions right?—it’s about the state/quality of mind from which decisions arise.

Yogic Wisdom isn’t about rituals or philosophy—it’s about mastering the subtle dynamics of the mind, attention, and clarity.

✔ Why does an accomplished leader still feel dissatisfied?
✔ Why do external wins not translate to inner fulfillment?
✔ Why do some leaders command effortless presence while others burn out?

Yogic Wisdom responds to these by working at the root—reshaping how you think, decide, and lead.

This approach, was developed with my mentor, Raghu Ananthanarayanan, to guide high-level leaders beyond conventional strategies—toward effortless clarity, personal power, and aligned leadership.

This isn’t leadership coaching. This is mastering the self, which forms the foundation of every role and every engagement—leadership follows naturally.

Testimonials

I see you

I See You

I see you struggle
The demands from your roles & ties,
Each day feels like a race to rise,
Yet beneath it all, the silence cries.

I see you swing
The mind voices, anxieties, 
The Fears, and the freeze, 
Yet, a knowing that there is something beyond what the eye sees. 

I see you yearn
For meaningful fun, 
For the flow & satisfaction, 
Sadly, trapped between transaction & silent dissatisfaciton.

I see you clear
You are not your struggle, swings or fears, Your presence is full of light, bright, & clear,
Connect within, let the grace steer,
The leader you know you can be
— it is already here.

Before We Begin – Is This for You?

  1. A coaching journey like this involves creative stress. Expect profound shifts in how you think, lead, and live—not quick tips or motivation. This is not a replacement for therapy or counselling.
  2. Most of the times, results are qualitative & not quantitative. They are not shiny, flashy 'instagram'-able. Real outcomes are shifts in your inner grounding, mindset towards your vision & current situation, approach, effortless action despite circumstances.
  3. No results are created overnight; testimonials are results of their hard work; varies for each individual
  4. There is no growth without investing in learning; be ready to invest the required time, money, attention for your life.
  5. Its your life: The goal is self-sufficiency. This journey equips you with deep clarity and inner mastery, not reliance on a coach.

Karthik Viswanath

Head of Product - PG & Lending, GROWW | Ex Walmart, Flipkart, LinkedIn | Father, Husband


From struggling with self-doubt & anxiety, growing to the ranks of a CXO. Un-agitated by competition, politics, grooming new leaders, confidently connecting with founders, board & the org vision.

I realised that I was struggling with self-doubt & imposter syndrome. I reached out to Gowtham. The programs and sessions helped me get clearer and know more about myself. I have learnt to see the way I function without getting disturbed. This comes in handy at higher levels of management - in handling self-doubt, courage to make decisions. I have stopped micro-managing, my team now trusts me more, &  its fun grooming leaders under me. I don't get spooked by seeming competitors to my job. The connect, trust with my founders & the board has increased multi folds.

Bhakyaraj Kandasamy

Manager, KPMG, US | Father | Climate Action Enthusiast


I started at -10 (self-critical, procrastinating, not very sure within). After just 8 sessions, I am at 0 - feeling balanced within, neutral, taking 1 day at a time. The way forward to grow stronger and impact my professional life, personal relationships & remain harmonious as a person.

Amazing. Even though I did not know the exact details of how each session will unfold, I decided to go for the program. Today, after 8 sessions, I am so grateful to myself for taking that decision.


I look forward to everyday, to take more responsibilities at my profession, to enjoy time with family, to enjoy just being myself. My movement along the numbers from negative to positive is a  joyful experience and I believe has happened within a very short time frame. 

A little bit about me

I'm a husband of a loving wife, father of 2 amazing daughters, a small time farmer, a coach & an entrepreneur. 

The day I realised that I was being an angry, irritated person, my body is in pain, my relationship is pathetic, and my career has stagnated, I was deeply saddened. I did not know what I wanted, where to start & what to do. The only thing I knew was I was stressed & confused. 

Slowly I removed one cause after the other within me that was giving me stress & suffering. I practised to move away from stress, emotional turmoil, and mental clutter. Gradually, clarity came in - I was driven by a deep desire to be in a state of harmony amidst the multiple roles & relationships. I wanted a vibrant mind, a light body, fulfilling relationships, and work that reflects my true self, creating meaningful impact & success.  

Today, everything falls short to express my gratitude to teachers, mentors, gurus & community. Through learning & practicing aspects from Indic wisdom, I've discovered my path to clarity & deep satisfaction. A large part of my everyday life today is about practicing this path & enjoying the benefits of it which is exactly what I sought in every dimension of my life. Everyday life evolves, so does my practice.

As a consequence, in the past few years, I've grown very passionate about helping similar seekers. I’ve helped over 4500+ leaders get INNER FREEDOM from stress, emotional swings & mental noise and build a harmonious life with health  love & create meaningful professional impact & success using the path and techniques for personal power from the Indian wisdom ⚛️.

I would be happy to help you too. If you're curious, lets fix a clarity call to understand each other & see if/how we can take your journey forward.
