Ep412: Rising from Rock Bottom to Life Force with Crisis and Transformation Coach for Lasting Success Anish Patel

Anish Patel began his career in the bustling 9-to-5 world of London, quickly rising through the ranks yet feeling deeply unfulfilled by age 25. Driven by a need for more, he set off for South America, where he spent the next seven years navigating dramatic highs and lows—going from financial rock bottom to building a seven-figure video advertising company. However, with rapid success came a steep price. Severe burnout and depression spurred Anish’s journey toward finding life’s deeper meaning. This search took him through intense phases of heavy partying and substance use, as well as a creative exploration of art, poetry, and acting. These experiences ultimately led him to self-development and healing practices that would change his life’s course. Over the years, Anish dove deeply into somatic experiencing, energy work, attachment therapy, and masculine-feminine polarity, among other modalities. Through these studies, he discovered a profound truth: the power of presence—the art of allowing life’s energy to flow freely to unlock one’s greatest potential. Today, with a system of 10 principles rooted in container work, energy work, and over 12 years of experience in relationships and business, Anish Patel helps clients achieve lasting, authentic success. His mission is to guide others to unleash their true power and live with purpose.   More of Anish: Website: www.anishcpatel.com LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/anishcpatel/ Instagram: @anishcpatel Check out Reset Point: www.amazon.com/Reset-Point-Lifeforce-Principles-Outliers/
