Welcome to this exciting episode of The Ultimate Coach podcast. My name is Ipek Williamson, and I'm your host on this episode.

In a world where it's all too common for people to live in quiet desperation. Sachin paves the way for creating the extra ordinary as the new normal. His unique approach focuses not on the content of thoughts but on changing one's relationship with thinking itself, with accomplishments ranging from overcoming mental illness without traditional therapy to creating sold out business retreats, and aiming for generational impact.

Such in it's an honor to have you with us your journey, and the impact you've created through your coaching and personal philosophy are incredibly inspiring. So thank you for being here with us.

Sachin Sharma: 00:02:11

Thank you so much for having me. And thanks for the generous introduction. This is what I dedicate my life to. And I was really excited to share more about it, especially after we spend some time together in Arizona. I'm really deeply moved by your commitment to the movement. And I really appreciate you having me as a guest.

Ipek Williamson: 00:02:29

Thank you so much. So of course, I'm very curious on your path to becoming the LAMRON coach. It's really fascinating. And I know what it is because I looked into it. But for the ones who are hearing it for the first time, would you please explain what is lamb Ron? And who is LAMRON coach?

Sachin Sharma: 00:02:51

Thank you. So LAMRON is the word normal spelled backwards. And it's, for my whole life, people have told me I'm a very unorthodox character. I'm very original. And I get a lot of it from my dad, if you ever meet my dad, you will explain a lot. So my mom used to say like, this is a normal one that isn't normal. And the way you do this isn't normal. And then my clients would say to me, and over time, it became something that I started realizing oh, like, everything I resonate with is usually the opposite of what's normally accepted or promoted us. So the landlord coach kind of came about as something I wanted to live into. And when I started using the term landlord on my friends, my clients, my family, everyone was like, yes, that is definitely you. And I got I didn't I didn't make up the term lamb Ron, it's from there's a rap group in Chicago, they started using it and it was a very, it was like a gang thing for them. I'm not affiliated with any gangs, I don't really want to be. So my way of using it is to, is to give like to flip something on its head, I'll have a very lamb run approach to mental health or growing a business, praying my animated series like I have a very lamb on approach to how I want to live. And that governs a lot of my choices. And in being a landlord coach means I might take a very unorthodox or seemingly opposite approach to solving a problem or creating something then people might otherwise expect. So yeah, like, I'm all about flipping paradigms. I don't. As far as I one of my favorite things to do is a lot of fun.

Ipek Williamson: 00:04:33

I love that. And it resonated with me so much because I remember myself when I was in high school, and I was questioning the word normal, what is normal, who decides what's normal? So your approach really is beautiful and very authentic. And not only that very way ahead of many people's perception gives visions. So I really appreciate that. So one thing that I'm really interested in curious about is the pivotal moment in your life that led you to embrace coaching, not just as a profession, but as a way of life. Can you share that with us? Yeah,

Sachin Sharma: 00:05:24

Definitely. So nine years ago, in 2015, I started to redefine my life. The first thing I started with was, what's my definition of life? What does it mean to be alive? What does it mean to wake up every day? And do what are the things that you do? Like? What how do you define the things that you do? And that you don't be? Why how. And as I started defining these things, I started realizing, Oh, I just live a life of obligation. And that's not good enough for me. The My definition of life, there's no, like, quietly hoping something changes, like you win the lottery. And suddenly, you're okay. That would be my idea of slavery, or living in prison. And I did that for a long time. So like, my mental health was at its all time low in 2013. And I was in a very abusive relationship. And I was being drugged on a regular basis. And I was being abused physically, emotionally, sexually. I was going through the wringer. And yeah, you can, you might be able to hear that had a smile on my face, is because I live my life by iron that God has designed everything perfectly for me. So I started to define how has that been designed for me so that I can have an amazing life. And the reason I was in that place with that person was because I was living according to all of this obligation. I hadn't defined anything for myself. And so I was living by other people's definition of what it means to be alive to have a partner to be successful. What does all that mean? So, in 2015, I threw out all of the old definitions. And a big part of that was I used to have hundreds of relatives. And that is good and why I didn't feel like family was you share the same surname as someone or the same blood as someone, I felt like family meant to me loyalty, and not like a blind loyalty either, but some people who want you what's best for you. And I didn't have any of them around me, except for my parents and my brother. So I removed every everyone from my life, except for my parents and my brother. And that was the turning point where it took like a year to get there. I remember being scared of it, like, Oh, my God, am I really going to do that? am I actually going to say goodbye to the way I've been living since I was born. And it was terrifying. Some people even said to me, you can never you can't do that to family families, the only people who are ever going to be there for you, and all of this sort of stuff. And because I was so scared, it took me a year. And then at the end, and when I made the decision, and I press the reset button on my life, I quit the job I used to have, I stopped talking to everyone except for my parents and my brother and one or two friends. And me redefining my life was making a big commitment to leaving behind victimhood, and really walking into creating my life. And those weren't the words I was using back then it was just, I'm sick of this, I can't do any more, I need to go this way. That was when really things really started to change. My mom and dad, we didn't have like an an authentic relationship. I would wear the good solder mask when I was at home with them. And outside of the house, I'd have such and that was one of the first things to go. I say now the conversation where my mom and dad and I said hey, you guys are gonna die at some point relatively soon. I'm sorry, it doesn't sound very fun. And before you die, I want us to have a great relationship when you're dead, you might want to hold to me and we'll come we'll come to there. If we come to here, you can tell me off after you're dead. But while you're alive, I want to have a good time. And I don't want us to hide start in I really believe that secrets are what kills people is like the weight of secrets. I don't have the order and have like hidden things that no one knows about me all of my days on the internet. Cool. And that was duck, the shedding of an old me that didn't fit me and growing that new skin in that light I really wanted to live it. And that was like the beginning of all of this. During that time my brother asked me a really important question. He said if you didn't have to work, if you if money was to you didn't have to ever think about it. What would you be doing? And the question was so beyond me, he like I couldn't even I didn't even know what the hell he was talking about. It's like, Ah, so he said he asked me again. If you never had to think about money, what would you be doing? And my brother was not very delicate with me. So he may or may not I have slapped me on the head, when he asked me to wake me up. Yeah, I believe it was for my benefit. How often a minute, I just thought I love spending time with people, just hearing about them and helping them in whatever way I can was one thing. But the real thing that are wanting to do with my life, is be involved in creating stories. Stories saved my life. When I was younger, I was trying to kill myself. Every week, the only reason why I wasn't going through with it, in a serious way was because of an animated TV show that I kept watching and thought, maybe next week, they'll give us the answer to this question. I've been asking, oh, my God, wait, like 600 episodes didn't come on, let's go. It was something that was keeping me alive. And at the same time, it was embedded with lessons in commitment. Who do you need to be to unite your family? It was create yourself, you're not you're not a result of your past, there was so many really Divine Messages in there, that spoke to my soul. And I said to him, that's what I would be doing, if I didn't ever have to think about any of that stuff. And he said, Well, you know, that's possible for you. And he always like my brother's not a coach. And he's the best coach I've ever had. He has taken the strongest stand for me that anyone has ever taken same level that Steve took with me, when we had all signed together. It was incredible what I was able to see, just in being confronted with, Oh, that's my actual dream. This is how I actually live. They're very different people. So this was day year was a very pivotal year for me. And then I started looking in the direction of working on myself and took a coach training in 2016. And I coached 100 people for free in a six month period of time. And it changed everything. For me, I was 24 when I did that. And just instantly, I knew, Okay, this is something I'm going to be doing for a long time. And it was a conscious decision to commit to it. Instead of like, I'll try it out. It was no, I'm going to do 100 to make sure that this isn't something I pick up, try for a bit and then drop or want this to be like a sacred commitment that I take. Then, after coaching those 100 people, a bunch of them said to me, Hey, man, you got a gift for this, can I pay you or whatever. But the real takeaway I got was wow, like, we're all way more similar than we think. And also better he is, I don't know, like it's not really spoken about in general conversation. And so when I spent dedicated time with these people, I really saw the value in and then I started hiring my own coaches that I guess we'd get way more into and with that, that's like a short version of the answer.

Ipek Williamson: 00:12:38

Yes, we will definitely. But I'm going to ask you about obviously your work with Steve Hardison. But before getting to that, in 2018, you cured yourself of mental illness without using traditional therapy or anything like that. So tell us a little bit about that journey and the role your unique mindset played in this achievement?

Sachin Sharma: 00:13:05

Yeah, absolutely. Thank you for asking I something I'm super passionate about. So I used to wake up with like a knot in my throat in my chest in my stomach, you could say I was constantly nervous than I was. I don't know if you've experienced this. But if you speak with someone, and they're not in the conversation when they're speaking very fast, and then already responding to the questions you're asking. And it seems like this in two different places at the same time. I was in 12 different places at the same time. So I was like barely functioning in this conversation. And then I'd be like, in seven years ago, and three years in the future, like what happened earlier today, I'll be whatever I couldn't pay attention and be would have told me Oh, you got ADHD. I didn't even think it was a thing back then. But one, what was happening, like the symptoms I heard, he was a lot of, I can't be president, I can't be still. I'm really unhappy most of the time. And I just pretty much hopeless, like I'm not looking forward to anything. And I'm constantly looking for a way out. So I used to love smoking weed, marijuana. And I was I was not a very nice person to hang out with very negative. Kind of my sense of humor was a bit strange. I would find it funny to annoy people. And you know, I was doing the best I could back then with whatever I had. And I had a really hard time sleeping. I'd love to sleep but I'd find it really difficult to get to sleep. And I was constantly ruminating on the past ruminating on things like this, considering things that had happened over and over and over again and wondering constantly, what is wrong with me? And life is unfair, and God hates me. He this really this was a lot of my life growing up my mental life and you was the people around me just told me Oh, no, that's not normal. Like, this is life. That's why we drink haha. I didn't think it was good enough for me annoying the sense of like, I just thought that there was something else out there. So I went to therapy to see what is actually going on here. And the therapist did an assessment with me over like six to eight weeks and they said, Okay, sounds like you've got Complex PTSD is Sarah's IQ got borderline or bipolar, bipolar disorder, it sounds like you've got chronic anxiety, fatigue, depression, they just started throwing a bunch of this stuff out there saying this sounds like you got these things. And I said, Okay, that's cool. doesn't really mean much to me. What can I do about and they said, oh, like, we can get you a referral to join this group program. And then you can get medication, if we feel like it's simple, like that would help. I said, well, that cure it. And they said, well, we don't, we can't say that it will. And you can manage it, that that's what you say. And I said, Okay, well, the way I look at it is, if I didn't if at some point, I didn't have these things, and now I have them, I can go back to not having now just the way it made sense to me, I started looking in the direction of psychology, and it didn't feel very helpful at the time, I learned a lot, then they kept using the caveat. But there's still so much about the mind that we don't know. So it didn't seem like there was principles that never be applied to everyone. So kind of felt like I was lacking in Sunday. Then I went on to spirituality and religion and philosophy. So I started looking into the works of Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, Jesus, the Buddha, Krishna, a bunch of religious figures and in spiritual teachers. And I started noticing something that they were saying, which was, there's an illusion happening. And you're not who you think you are, you are so much greater than all of that. And I quote, now I call it having a personality addiction. So I had a personality addiction to this version of such and who I feel like he exists, then when I started looking in the direction of or what is this illusion, oh, da, personality is is just, it was made up. So if I said to you, 68.5 is the ideal room temperature, I just made that up. It doesn't mean it's false, doesn't mean it's true, just just something I said, maybe this is all of that too. And then I started looking into detachment and letting go. And what I've started to arrive at was all of this anxiety, or this negative feeling is based on assumptions. And is based on me being addicted to my past, I keep picking up the past and bringing it to here before I create. And as I practice dropping yet, a lot of this skill feeling went away, a lot of it. But then one big pivotal moment came when I spoke to one of my mentors. And he explained this scenario. So he spent 10 years in California prison. He was the head of the white two gang in prison. And it's a very violent story, but I won't go into it. And he said, there was only about the yield on the prison yard. And there was hundreds of the other races, and it's separated by race in California prison. And he said, because we had so few people on the yard with us, if something happened, we would be in trouble. So to keep our numbers up, we had what's called a no hands policy on the yard. Which means if you got a problem with another white guy, you either stab him or you drop it. So you stop having a problem or you kill each other which one and most of the time 99% of the time, they're not willing to kill each other over so they dropped it. And that's what happened. Like he said this to me, he's like, have a no hands policy with yourself and with your past and with the people that have hurt you. Like it wasn't encouraging me to kill but he's like, you're not going to kill. So just drop it. And this one piece of teaching really kicked me off the fence is stopped me from debating with myself. Am I going to try and get revenge? Am I gonna go and work on this stuff? Or so I just drop it. The dropping it was it was very difficult in the beginning. And the more I dropped it, the more I walked into that. Then coupled with what I was learning about religion, the more I just started falling away. It's like I was arguing with reality as arguing with God, like, oh, in your infinite divine wisdom. You don't know better than me in my pea sized brain. So you know, how dare you put these things in my path? These people are bad. They need to be punished. And, you know, my mentor just said let God handle and you carry on. These conversations didn't just okay, yeah, I'm done. It was an accumulation of everything. I really believe like if someone wants something and they really commit to it, they can have it and are wanting to be free. So I just kept choosing the freedom and lots of invitations to go back to the way I used to be. There's just like in the matrix, the movie, you take the blue pill or the red pill, the blue pill, you go back to normal, you carry on, you try and forget about, okay, the red pill, you get to see how far the rabbit hole goes. And I believe you got to take the red pill every single day. And that's kind of with the decision, I'm no go. Keep taking this red pill every day. And that's what led to the freedom.

Ipek Williamson: 00:20:28

I saw love this story really such an It's very moving. Inspiring, you can change it any moment, you can choose the red pill, any moment and start then in there. And drop. Let it be let it go.

Sachin Sharma: 00:20:46

I used to think that you just born this way. And that's it like you just are you just exist and done. Your your fixed slab of metal, for example. In recent years, what I've developed an understanding of this, or words that I was using to fix my problems in plates. So the four words are is was ham are your four words, this was the best air mod I, I am an introvert. This is who I am. They are stupid. Now like these four things. Now we're casually using in conversation and the way we create the world. That's what I was, I was just fixing things in place with these words. And then wondering why I felt stuck. And has I've developed like, an awareness around these words my user is was or like, they're just indicating where, where and when I'm fixing things in place. And when do they serve me? Because I could fix something else, then that serves me instead. For example, like, I've heard that mother in laws are some some some species of human that just are difficult. They're just that way, you know, they're just terrible. Oh, my God. Yet, if I hung out, and I had done this, if I hung out with someone's mother in law, we'd be having a great time, we'd have a laugh and a joke about something I probably asked you what's your favorite food? Like? I'd find some way of connecting with you and having a good time. So she isn't she's not just difficult. And as the same for me like I wasn't, it's not just how I am. And then either developing an understanding of that's an addiction, and you can be different. Wow, like, the world just decide to look totally different. And as I never felt like I had a good skill for anything, except for spending time with people. I'm talking and like learning about people. And someone said to me when I was younger, you can't just talk and expect to be paid for it. It really messed with me because I thought well, what do people who run businesses? Do they talk to people? What do people or do like make movies? Do they talk to people? Interesting. It was just really like a lie. My mind was in the cooker. And when I came out of it, I was like, Huh, I wonder what this like natural skill will gift in wanting to spend time with people. I wonder where that's gonna take me. And fast forward nine years here we are.

Ipek Williamson: 00:23:21

Wonderful. And you are doing amazingly. But of course. Now, I want to ask you how your path crossed with Steve Hardison.

Sachin Sharma: 00:23:32

Yeah. So I read about Stephen in the prosperous coach in 2016. That really like opened my eyes like, Oh, my God, he coaches however the hell he wants. And I was talking with someone about this earlier today, like, someone made up what the term coaching means. So why don't I just make up my own load? As long as I fall, and I feel like Steve Chandler, Steve autosen, rich lip, when they got that time, I really needed permission to just be my own coach. So that was the first time on how to buy a new kit calling in the ultra College Hall. Who the hell is this guy? That, um, you know, a bit of time went passed. And then I hired my first business coach, and he said, Watch TBO allottee NFL, I started looking in the direction of my personal declarations. Two years later, I lived in Mexico for that year. 2021 had the time, I just I remember sending Steve a message on Facebook. And I said, Hey, I got a question for you, bro. He said, Yeah, sure. So why do you choose to do monogamy with your wife? And he said, Well, that's a long answer. No, I'm not going to text you. But why don't you call me. That was cool. I called him and we spent 15 minutes on the phone. And after that conversation, I was no longer interested in polyamory, like having more than one one and a really He changed my life. Like I really flipped everything I thought about relationships and love on its head. And instantly as what was not a short thing, it wasn't a long thing, it was quick. And then I was annoyed with him, I ruined my fun. It was really important for me to reflect on it. So, you know, later on that year, I really thanked him as, Hey, by the way, man, we're going to be working together at some point, just so you know. He's like, alright, you might not want to do that. So you know, it might be tough for you. And as that I'm getting myself ready for it. And then the following year 2022. I met him at the ultimate experience. And we had a lot of interaction building up to that was a lot of fun. And after reading the book, man, like, it has had a big shift in Who do I think I are? Who is Steve saying the example for me to be? What is the example that he's saying, for me, I don't have to have his experiences to be able to create the way that he creates buy in my own way. And that was a real, like, eye opener for me. So then, I had my first be with my be with session with him at the end of 2020. True. And man, I was just like, it really cracked the lid off. A lot of the stuff that I've been telling myself is Steve makes things very simple. So we created something I could live into was being the Conor McGregor of coaching. Conor McGregor is like the face of the fighting world. I don't have to be the face of the coaching rod necessarily, but it's a way of being about that was a lot of fun. I just I picked it up and I ran with it. Dude, I had so much fun with that. I started calling myself there, Conor McGregor of coaching and is like really having fun with it. So that was $2.22. And then the following year, we had the NDI event. I had a lot of fun there. When we were in India. I said, Steve, this is it. I'm gonna work with you this year. And he said, Okay, I agree. And I said, I bet you hear that all the time, don't you? He didn't didn't say yes or no, he just smiled. As I call. I'm serious. Die. I don't mess around. When I say I want to do something. He said, Okay, great. I look forward to it. A month later, I realized like, I don't want this to just be a thing that's out there. Like I'm gonna do it. Ghana is one of the most dangerous guns in the world. I love that the gun a gun kills more people and dreams than anything else does. So I sent him a downpayment. And it was like, about 20 ish percent of what we'd agreed to do it in our agreement. When I sent him money, I was like, Oh, this is happening now. Okay. You know, a lot of people have said, becoming the person who can make the money to work with Steve is a big part of the growth that is necessary for actually being able to work with him. So that year, I just like I was living in my, my dream apartment in downtown London. And I loved it. I had so much fun living there. And my clients coming to see me. It was a somewhere of wanting to live for my whole life. It's called Shoreditch. In East London. It was so cool. When I got this. I felt like a grown up living there. And then, yeah, like that, yes, I had, then I booked my Airbnb. I booked the car, I booked the flights. And as it was becoming more and more of a reality, I was like, Oh, my God, I'm actually going to be doing it. And then I got there in October, we had a weekly coaching session every week. And in total, we had about 20 sessions. And it was, it was profound when I was, it's still paying off now. Like as in, it's still impacting me, we create one document, we created a way of seeing myself, the world and everyone around me in a really powerful way that supports where I'm going. Because dude, like I told you with the the animated series that my brother asked me, what would you be doing? I just thought that that was like, you know, people have dreams, you know, like, people have dreams. Wow. That was kind of my attitude towards some of this stuff. And I asked myself, well, what kind of coach would I be? If I was if I had that attitude to possibility? I'd I wouldn't hire me if I had that. No way would I, if I and that's what I said to Steve like, this is really important to me. I want to be this guy. I want to have this. I don't want it to be a dream. I want it to be my reality. And the way he got excited about it was so fun. He was like, Oh my God, that's so cool. You're gonna be making movies. And I sat there like, it hasn't happened yet. He's like, to me, it has an hour scene that I am. And now we're looking back like that was only in October. And we're in April now. And it's all like I met the producer. Things are happening. We're moving in the script. We're working on the script. It's all unfolding. And I'm not surprised. And I never thought I'd be able to say that without having to put On an act of arrogance, or like, Yeah, I'm the man, I'm not surprised. It's none of that is actually very simple. Like, if you had milk in the fridge, you wouldn't be surprised if you opened the door and got the milk out diets in your hand. That's how this field same we're making more money is same with my praying a relationship with my girlfriend was making my dreams come true cream the physique like the way I want to look, it's all the same thing. And that, to me has been an incredible shift to have that things don't need to feel far away or difficult or longing, that habit, it can just be as simple as I'm going to the fridge to get some milk.

Ipek Williamson: 00:30:45

So beautiful. And good thing you started talking about your animated series, because my next question to you is about that. As far as I know, they are aimed at changing the way we treat mental illness. So what is the ultimate goal of that project? Can you tell us a little bit about it? Yeah,

Sachin Sharma: 00:31:09

Absolutely. Thanks for asking. So, as I told you a bit about my journey with mental health, I see that there's a lot of people looking for help, and their help that's out there at the moment is going to be helpful for some people. And what I want to give is going to be revolutionary to give you a different type of help. So I want this, creating a film studio, the film studio, like you have Marvel Studios, we have shift happens studios, then we're going to be bringing conscious content creators from all over the world who want to tell stories that can change the way people think. So in for example, with this series, embedding things in that that I've learned and shifts in my thinking that I've learned and shifts in other people's thinking now facilitated, to give people an actual tangible shift every time they watch an episode, every time they watch a movie that we make. And anything that comes out of shift happens, studios, is going to recalibrate someone's thought compass. So like you don't control your first thought, but you get to control your second thought about the first thought. So number one is are we controlling number two, that's related to number one that's in my control, Google, things like that. A lot of people will never go to see a therapist or a coach or a mentor. A lot of people will never find out about Steve or the book or anything like this. But if they can watch something, and it challenges their views on Oh, like, maybe my dad can't annoying me. What is my worry if it's true that my feelings don't come from outside of me? What if it's true that I'm creating this sense of unease that I that I don't want to have? What if that is all true, then? What can I do about it? Oh, I like I think I have the power to do anything I want. And I want to tell these stories and other loads to tell like there's some of them are like very far fetched wacky, crazy things. And some of them are a bit too close to home, they feel a bit too real, that it's scary. And it's very, like a lot of the art that I make is very dark. And it's not too, it's not a horror movie dark. It's human condition exploration, that's dark. That's scary. And you're like we're capable of some very terrible things. But we're also capable of beautiful things. And I want to explore the entire spectrum of it. So we've shift happens, we're creating a studio, where let's say someone in Germany says, Hey, such and I got this story I want to tell they can come to our studio, we got expert coaches in house to nurture that creative talent and make their story something that has personal development embedded into it, that when it's in the movie theater, or is on the streaming platform, people can one day and discover something about themselves in it. This is one of my gifts with coaching. Like, I'll take your favorite movie. And I'll make that your greatest tool for personal growth so that every time you watch it, it will strip away negative patterns of stolen thinking that you don't want and install great patterns of thinking that you want that will improve your athletic performance of business performance, or bring you closer to yourself, your family, your religion, your God. This is why I can do with existing movies, why I can do with things I create it that's what excites me a lot is I've already been doing this with things that exist out there. When I give my own to the world is Game On as soon as like, you know I can really do a lot with that. So the bigger vision for this is it's gonna long outlive me like I'm going to do my own thing and with the next generation shift happens will be the hub of conscious content creation that's really got a hard hitting message and will revolutionize the way we talk about treating mental illness.

Ipek Williamson: 00:35:01

Wow this is really exciting. I'm so looking forward to witness and watch it flourish. It will be amazing. I can't wait.

Sachin Sharma: 00:35:14

Thank you. It's been a lot of fun already. And the thing about it when I said it's not surprising, when I spoke to the producer, and he was like, Dude, I want to be involved. How do we how do I get good? I think the old me, before I had worked with Steve would have been like, Oh, my God, oh, my God, who am I worthy? And instead of water that was just like, I'm not surprised you'd like to be involved. It feels like there's a lot of synergy here. And sure, like, tell me what do you think you can contribute? And it wasn't like a let me see if you're right for this kind of it was I already had a feeling we were going to do it. So just talk to me a bit about what you want to contribute. And he did. And we got a lot of ideas on the way. And it just felt very natural. It just felt like this was supposed to be what was happening. And we'll just get rid of it. And that's the thing that really excites me in a very relaxed way. Like, it doesn't feel like I'm having to push, it doesn't feel like there's tremendous amounts of effort involved. It is. I'm here for the unfolding of it. And I have this analogy like, we're in the cosmic kitchen. God is the chef. The Animated Series is the dish, and I am the spatula or the whisk, you know, the wooden spoon, I've got a part to play in here was not mine. That really like feels like I want to be the best wooden spoon I can be.

Ipek Williamson: 00:36:37

So beautiful. Well, now we come to the question that I asked everyone. So from the book, which one of the questions in the before you begin section of the book or on the back cover of the book you see is the one you need to focus on at this moment in time in your life? Yeah

Sachin Sharma: 00:37:01

I think it would I need to be to really be at peace with who I am. Is a question right now is that I'm going through a big transition in my business. So I really enjoyed while I prayed up to this point. And I've told you like what's coming next is looks very different to running multiple events every year, I'm on my coaching business. And where I'm only interested in quantum leaps I don't really like incremental growth does love massively for there's a lot that comes with that. Being really at peace with who I actually am. I was put here to tell these stories. I'm the story guy, apparently cool. Like, if I'm really at peace with that. I'm going to make these quantum leaps where the law of ease and does marinating on this question really, like settles me down to knowing that, hey, this, this is what we have. And now I'm I'm really practicing, not being beholden to food, not being beholden to validation, or money or anything really like I'll change my definitions of a lot of things so that it doesn't make sense to me to be beholden to these things. Something's got a hold on me. And that's when I'm really finding muscles at peace with who I am. And who I am is an extraordinary The more I look into, like, the way the path has been designed for me and where I'm headed, and the things that make sense to me to jump onto next, the more at peace will die become, the more of it, I start to own the world. It just kind of starts living through me. And then that's something that I never had before. I never had a sense of self certainty that life is living through me. I've got places that it's gonna take me three, and there's no pressure with that. It's not something I have to try and do. It's just that. So being at peace with who I really am is something extraordinary and pieces the most one of the most underrated things in the world. I used to think like no, if I'm too happy, I'm not gonna want to do anything. And it's not true. Like I'm not the most happiest I get a lot done and doesn't feel like I'm doing a lot which is great.

Ipek Williamson: 00:39:11

And how liberating is that? Isn't it? Sachin? It's liberating. It's so refreshing and you feel lighter. Really?

Sachin Sharma: 00:39:23

Hundreds has stirred that wouldn't spooning thing again like I don't have to try and be more more more more I don't have to do all of those today. Isn't that exhausting? Resting in this is who I came here to be. God has designed this path for me. Okay great. Like I'll be the best wooden spoon I can be I'm here to make a contribute to making create amazing dishes like pancakes and, you know chicken or rice or whatever like, but that's not me like, it just gives me a great sense of peace and knowing that that's not mine, the stuff that comes out of me I don't own insane was I don't earn people I don't even this animated series like, it's gonna along outlive me the guy who made the anime that saved my life. Hunters get a sense from him, he's not attached to the world knowing his name sure his name's on here and he's proud of what he's done. So doesn't make him more than a wooden spoon. And I feel that there's a great sense of power in that I can really give my best to the world. If I know I'm not trying to be more than this. I'm just going to do the best wooden spoon stuff I can do.

Ipek Williamson: 00:40:38

Oh, wonderful. Thank you. So now we come to the three rapid fire questions for you. Yes, so the first question, what is the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning.

Sachin Sharma: 00:40:54

I like the three albums, music movement, and meditation. So I listen to some music, I'll move around, meditate on my document. By now I normally have, I'll recite my document, and I'll have a line of my document to focus on for the day. And I'll go through it periodically. But that's generally why I do the movement or is it could be messing around with my dogs. It could be stretching, it could be anything to music PA is I wake up to music is just one of my favorite things, then yeah, meditation doesn't always have to be sit down, close your eyes and be quiet sometimes is that I just think there's an active way of meditating on my document is you can speak out, you can speak one line or you can write it out. There's something about being with it. Unconsciously, that really helps me to create myself.

Ipek Williamson: 00:41:46

Beautiful. So second question is about this year, by the end of 2024. What would be one thing that you want to achieve by the end of the year?

Sachin Sharma: 00:42:01

This is like, what things do I have in the fridge that I would want to put on the table I hear there's a lot of cool stuff happening in my fridge right now. I think like having our, our series in publication, like being ready to pull on distribution channels, I'm having a lot of fun around like, I think the main thing would be, by the end of the year, I would have as I'm taking my landlord intensive to lots of different locations. So July, we'll be in New York, October or September, we'll be in England again. October, we'll be in California. Next year, I'm gonna do parts of Asia. Like I'm having a really fun time playing around with these things. So by the end of the year, I would like to have done everything I said I'm going to do and we're already in the process of that. So there's nothing that stands out to me is already happening. My answer is just you just have had fun doing it, which, which I don't see in a day, that's impossible for that to not be the case,

Ipek Williamson: 00:43:00

be eating all those things and just being in peace while doing that.

Sachin Sharma: 00:43:05

Yeah, there's more of what's happening now. Really, honestly, that to the health of my loved ones. That's all I wish for novelty.

Ipek Williamson: 00:43:15

And it's interesting that you mentioned your fridge because my third question is about one thing that you always have in your fridge. Something like Don't tell me milk or like, or eggs like something that is different or interesting.

Sachin Sharma: 00:43:33

So anyone who who that I met in Arizona this year, or last year, they will I cooked my famous such as famous chicken or a bunch of people. And that is usually in my fridge. It's marinated in some secret spices that no one knows. I may or may not give the recipe out one day. But that's nine days out of 10 you could find in my fridge aide to basically the same thing every day. Two of those chicken breasts, a steak, big bowl of salad like doesn't generally most of the time what you'll find in my fridge, and pineapple. Pineapple is like oh my god, man. This is one of my favorite things in the world. So chicken, pineapple and steak, you could definitely find it by fridge.

Ipek Williamson: 00:44:17

But yeah, I just like her love hearing from people and I do that same way if you text me, I might just call you because I prefer to call people that have random back and forth. And I rationalized in helping people create an extraordinary life if that's something that you want to look in the direction of dude will have the most fun doing that. And in the most unexpected ways possible your favorite movie will become your guiding north star that will bring you closer to all of the NLP live your dreams?
