Bio
Adi Shakti is the founder of SoulWork and a philanthropic leader guided by a clear lens: Freer Women. Safer Children. After training thousands of yoga teachers worldwide, Adi’s primary focus has evolved into her role as The Philanthropic Femme, serving as a high-level business mentor and philanthropic advisor to founders. She supports entrepreneurs in growing profitable, enduring businesses while weaving philanthropy, responsibility, and redistribution directly into their business models. Adi is the curator of Post-Traumatic Growth Through the SoulWork Lens, an anthology including the works of 50+ SoulWork leaders, which articulates that personal healing is not the destination of awakening, but its beginning. Self-healing matures into collective responsibility and lived devotion to one’s dharmic path.
She spent nearly a decade living in Costa Rica, supporting community-based initiatives and the Bribri people, and her current philanthropic focus is devoted to human trafficking survivor centers in Kolkata, India. Adi is also a long-standing supporter of Dr. Yogrishi’s school in India, grounding her work in disciplined spiritual study through the Akhanda teachings. Adi’s leadership represents a union of philanthropic responsibility, spiritual depth, and business mastery, supporting seekers in the journey from the soul to the work, and the recognition that our work in the world can only span as wide as our spiritual life runs deep.
