Alok Appadurai is the founder and CEO of Uplift Millions, a 7-figure, global coaching company for impact-driven, service based entrepreneurs who want to change the world. I was drawn to Alok’s high-vibrating energy, which he exudes throughout his posts and videos.

In our conversation, I asked him to share his journey and how he got to where he is now, living the lifestyle of his dreams, after a pivotal moment five years ago in his professional and personal life.

“In 2016, I lost everything.

It was one of those moments in life, I was a half-time single dad, I had my little boy, and we shared a one-room studio, I had no car, I barely could keep a roof over our head.

(…)

The ego, the pride, all of that just got pummeled. There I was, I had been this rising star, in the social impact business space, I had given a TEDx talk, gotten all these public accolades, and all of that.

That first step was really SURRENDER. What am I holding on to? Where is my ego in the way?”

“When I lost everything, it was the best thing that ever happened to me. I didn’t know it at the time.

Now I look back and realize that what I have learned and the changes that I made in that time period when I had nothing was the most important changes that I could have made.”
