In this episode I interview Gurunam Atwal. Gurunam Kaur Atwal, also known as “Gaia" was born and raised in Eugene, Oregon, where she grew up immersed in the rich traditions of yoga, Ayurveda, and kirtan from the Sikh lineage. These early experiences laid the foundation for her deep connection to music and its sacred power to heal, inspire, and unite. Her journey has been a fusion of ancient spiritual practices and modern creativity, blending her roots in Kundalini yoga, North Indian dance, and devotional singing with her passion for the transformative potential of electronic music.
As a multidimensional artist and DJ, she explores music as a universal language, a pathway to self-expression, and a tool for collective healing. Her intention is to craft safe, expansive spaces where people can connect to their authentic selves, move energy, and co-create moments of presence and joy. Whether through live singing, spoken word, or eclectic soundscapes, she brings an experimental and intuitive approach to her sets, allowing the energy of the moment to guide the experience.
Beyond music, she is passionate about fostering conversations around wellness, spirituality, and living in harmony with the earth. It’s an honor to share this journey, weaving together traditions and innovations to inspire connection and transformation.
