#40 Sana Akhand is a keynote speaker on Freedom and Love and a Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur. Sana had a “perfect” life before she hit 30. Married and successful in her career, she had it all, yet she still felt unfilled. She found herself burnt out and living a life based on external validation. Sana eventually realized that success does not depend on our careers but is defined by the meaningful connections we make.
Sana rediscovered her relationship with her husband by living separately from him in NYC. She gained independence and found deeper intimacy and connections with her husband by doing so. Today, she helps women do the same.
Sana is now the CEO of the Shakti Society, a collective of entrepreneurs, authors, influencers, and change-makers ready to become thought leaders. Sana seeks freedom and has dedicated her life to preaching it to others. Sana is an incredible mentor who is full of wisdom. She gives us so much advice, life experience, do’ and don’ts, personal stories, and more. Tune in to gain the confidence to live your life with freedom.
