Empowering Youth for Holistic Success
Hi.. Iam Mani Kandan and people fondly know me as Mani .. I come from a humble middle class family in southern part of India also known as Gods own country - Kerala.
After completing my formal schooling education I worked in various corporate jobs for about 20 Years in India as well as abroad in UK and US. During this tenure I grew from a fresher to a highly reputed position in a multinational and receiving several recognitions, various awards and accolades along the way.
While all was looking great and amazing in my life as I was making good money from job, had great health and married to a lovely wife and blessed with a child, parents and family was all fine, But I used to feel a void or a emptiness vacuum within me and realised something was missing in my life and started to search for it.
I used to think what is my purpose in this life and wonder will I be doing this same job for rest of my life …until sometime later I stumbled upon a mentor by accident. When I started to work on myself under his guidance I realised that what I was searching in my life was a strong reason for which I have to wake up everyday and make some meaningful change in this world for better.
From the mentorship journey and the learnings I had from several coaches, I went deep to my own life journey of 4 decades and had many realisations like the challenges and tough times I went through in life and particularly when I was an Youngster.
There where difficult situations I faced in mental and emotional health, wealth and particularly relationships. From a weak, timid and introverted shy boy to becoming a confident, charismatic and successful man was not an easy journey for me.
When I looked at youngsters around, I saw what was happening to them. I started to feel the pain when I see the next generation youth crumbling down in difficult situations in their studies as well as in life.
For issues such as their father / mother being strict towards them or their teacher being tough on them they feel that their life is hard. In situations such as a relationship breakup or not able to score good academic marks, I see them getting to bad habits such as drugs and sedatives and the digital addiction adding to the already serious problem.
It pains me to see them experience issues of Anxiety, Depression and Stress and then breaking down like ice flakes and then even going to the extent of ending their life without any idea of what do in those tough moments.
I understood that if iam here after solving all that I faced in my life its my duty to ensure that not another youngster goes through such pain and suffering. I realised that it’s my responsibility in life to help them to become strong and capable to handle any challenges in life and come out of it.
So I embarked on this path and after a time left my corporate world completely and decided to dedicate my life for the wellbeing of youngsters holistically.
As of today Iam able to help thousands of Youngsters through my coaching sessions, 1-1 mentoring and physical workshops in many colleges and universities.
I could also change lives through my Amazon best selling book “Be Emotionally Fit to lead a fulfilled life” which has received great reviews and testimonials from people at various walks of life.
In addition I have got opportunities to share stages with renowned influencers and change makers in the world at various forums.
But at the end of the day what matters to me most is the priceless feeling and a sense of satisfaction that today I could help another youngster see their life better and a chance to transform them with am impact not just in their academics and studies but also in their physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual wellbeing.
My journey continues and now its my vision to see every youth coming into my universe become fit holistically. Iam on a mission to help at least a million Youngsters in my life time to become successful and fit and through you if I can impact one life, help one youth and contribute for betterment of another future youngster.
Then lets hold hands to make a better society … Lets us make a difference to the next generation and leave the world better that what it was.
