Shetty grew up in a family where you could become one of three thingsa doctor, a lawyer, or a failure. His family was convinced he had chosen option three: instead of attending his college graduation ceremony, he headed to India to become a monk, to meditate every day for four to eight hours, and devote his life to helping others. After three years, one of his teachers told him that he would have more impact on the world if he left the monk's path to share his experience and wisdom with others.

Heavily in debt, and with no recognizable skills on his resume, he moved back home in north London with his parents.

Shetty reconnected with old school friendsmany working for some of the world's largest corporationswho were experiencing tremendous stress, pressure, and unhappiness, and they invited Shetty to coach them on well-being, purpose, and mindfulness.
