Welcome to the Ask Sadhviji podcast! In this special live episode, recorded at the beautiful Sivananda Ashram Yoga Retreat Bahamas during Sadhviji’s April 2026 retreat, we begin a powerful new series: Redefining Success.
From childhood, many of us are taught that success means achieving the right grades, landing the right job, earning more money, building the perfect family, and checking all the expected boxes. Yet despite accomplishing so much, countless people still find themselves asking:
“Why am I not happy?”
In this opening session, Sadhviji explores the difference between external achievement and true fulfillment. Drawing on wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita, her own spiritual journey, and decades of teaching around the world, she invites us to question the definitions of success we inherited and discover a deeper, more meaningful path.
What if success is not about becoming more, accumulating more, or proving more?
What if true success is measured by the quality of our inner life, our connection to purpose, and our ability to remain grounded, peaceful, and present amidst life’s inevitable ups and downs?
This talk is an invitation to look beyond society’s scoreboard and reconnect with what truly matters.
In this episode, Sadhviji explores:
• Why external achievement often fails to bring lasting happiness
• The hidden ways we tie our worth to performance and accomplishment
• How childhood conditioning shapes our definition of success
• The difference between material success and spiritual fulfillment
• Why happiness, peace, and purpose are not destinations but foundations
• How to discover your unique dharma and live a life of deeper meaning
Join us for the first conversation in this transformative series as we explore what it means to live a truly successful life—not only in the eyes of the world, but in the deepest truth of our own hearts.
