    From Privilege to Purpose: Why Akhil Khurana Became Arjun Sakha Das

    What happens when everything you once believed about success begins to change? Born as Akhil Khurana, Arjun Sakha Das grew up surrounded by family, wealth and ambition in Delhi, India. But when his father's business collapsed, the life he had always known changed dramatically. What followed was an extraordinary journey through financial hardship, migration to Australia, spiritual discovery and ultimately a decision that would redefine his identity and purpose.In this episode of The Divesh Sareen Show, Divesh Sareen sits down with Arjun Sakha Das, a monk, spiritual teacher and mentor, to explore the experiences that transformed his life. Arjun shares a powerful analogy: "We polish the cage but forget to feed the bird."We spend so much time building careers, accumulating wealth, improving our appearance and chasing success. But are we forgetting to nourish what is within? In this conversation, we explore: • Growing up in a privileged family in Delhi and experiencing financial collapse • The lessons Arjun learned from his parents and grandparents • His early ambitions in modelling, dance and business • The Bhagavad Gita seminar that changed his understanding of life • Migrating to Australia and starting again • Working humble jobs while supporting his family • The decision to leave conventional career ambitions and become a monk • The transformation from Akhil Khurana to Arjun Sakha Das • Finding happiness beyond material achievements • Leadership, spirituality and service to others • Helping migrants, international students and people searching for belonging • What it really means to live a purposeful lifeThis is more than a conversation about spirituality. It is a story about identity, family, resilience, migration, transformation and the courage to question what success really means.Whether you are building a career, navigating change, searching for direction or simply questioning what matters most, there is something in Arjun's journey worth reflecting on.If this conversation resonates with you, please like, comment, subscribe and share it with someone who might benefit from hearing Arjun's story.

    Simon Katich - Beyond the Baggy Green: Leadership, Resilience & Life After Cricket

    What does a career at the highest level of cricket teach you about leadership, resilience, identity and life beyond the game? In this episode of The Divesh Sareen Show, Divesh Sareen sits down with former Australian Test cricketer Simon Katich for a conversation that goes beyond runs, records and the Baggy Green. Simon reflects on his journey to representing Australia, performing under pressure, navigating setbacks, leadership inside elite teams, transitioning from player to coach, and the lessons professional sport has taught him about life. The conversation also explores a side of Simon's story that many cricket fans may not know. Simon wrote the Foreword for Migrants Life - Volume 1, reflecting on his grandparents and their journey to Australia. Simon and Divesh discuss family legacy, migration, belonging, multicultural Australia and why preserving people's stories matters. Recorded on 6 June 2026, the conversation took place on the day of the official launch of Migrants Life - Volume 1 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), where more than 200 people gathered to celebrate 14 migrant stories. Together, Simon and Divesh also build Simon's Story Blueprint - capturing the defining moments, challenges, lessons and people that have shaped his journey. This is a conversation about cricket, but more importantly, it is about leadership, character, resilience, family and the legacy we leave behind. The Divesh Sareen Show

    Saroo Brierley: The Inspiration Behind LION | Finding Home Against All Odds

    What happens when a young boy becomes separated from his family, ends up thousands of kilometres from home, and decades later decides to find his way back? In this episode of The Divesh Sareen Show, I sit down with Saroo Brierley - author, speaker, and the inspiration behind the six-time Oscar-nominated film Lion. Saroo's extraordinary journey began when he became separated from his family in India as a young child. After surviving alone and eventually being adopted by a family in Australia, he grew up thousands of kilometres away from the home he barely remembered. Years later, armed with fragments of childhood memories and Google Earth, Saroo began an extraordinary search to find the family and place he had lost. Against all odds, he found his way home. But in this conversation, we go beyond the story seen in Lion. We explore identity, belonging, family, adoption, resilience, hope, purpose, and what home really means. Saroo also reflects on the experiences that shaped him, the emotions behind reconnecting with his past, and the lessons he has learnt from a journey that has inspired millions around the world. This is a conversation about much more than finding a place on a map. It is about understanding where we come from, discovering who we are, and holding onto hope even when the odds seem impossible. If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs to hear Saroo's extraordinary story. Guest: Saroo Brierley
