Quick Shanti

Deep thoughts, short episodes. You’re welcome.

What It Is

Quick Shanti is one of my creative outlets—a side project where I explore anything that sparks curiosity or inspiration. From philosophy to cool thinkers to modern reflections, it’s all about sharing ideas that might stir the mind, soul, or, ideally, both.

The project includes two key elements: the Quick Shanti podcast, featuring bite-sized reflections for people who want meaning without the self-help jargon, and Shanti Meditations, a series of guided practices on YouTube and Insight Timer.

Quick Shanti

The Podcast

Quick Shanti’s podcast offers bite-sized reflections to listeners, combining timeless wisdom with modern insight. I personally research, script, host, and produce each episode. My goal is to create thoughtful content designed to inspire, not preach. These episodes give listeners space to reflect, internalize, and make each insight their own.

Shanti Meditations

The YouTube Channel

The Shanti Meditations YouTube channel expands on the Quick Shanti podcast with a library of guided meditations and contemplations that resonate with a growing audience of 750 subscribers and 31,703 views.

I craft every script and record each meditation with intentionality. Topics range from stress relief to gratitude and energy resets.
