In this episode of Founders Future, with host Jae Encarnacion, we sit down with Dada Nabhaniilananda, the visionary behind The Monk Dude, a revolutionary corporate wellness platform blending ancient meditation practices with modern business needs. Dada shares his deeply personal journey—from losing a brother to suicide to becoming a yoga monk on a mission to combat the mental health crisis in high-pressure industries. He breaks down The Monk Dude’s unique approach, which combines mantra chanting, storytelling, and music to help Silicon Valley executives and teams reduce stress, unlock creativity, and build resilience—backed by 40 years of teaching and testimonials from giants like Google and Meta.
Dada reveals his ambitious plans to scale The Monk Dude, including a soon-to-launch digital platform, corporate retreats, and a holistic lifestyle program. He discusses the misconceptions around mindfulness in business (hint: it’s not just about stress relief—it boosts innovation and teamwork) and his fundraising strategy to build a global community. Tune in for actionable insights on integrating ancient wisdom into modern workplaces and why Dada believes gratitude practices and human connection are the ultimate “secret weapons” for founders navigating today’s chaotic world.
