From his shift to a more intentional way of living, fueled by meditation and spiritual practices, to navigating go-to-market strategy and leading remote teams, Ricky offers tactical insights and heartfelt reflections. He shares lessons from securing major deals through optimism, the importance of spiritual and mental alignment at work, and why empathy is the key trait he’d advise his younger self to embrace.
