Episode 77: Inner Billionaire Heartset: Communication As An Act of Service with Vadivu Govind
If you’re curious to learn how the five pathways of being, loving, serving, growing, and playing can lead to a more meaningful life and inspire those around you. This episode is for you!
Vadivu Govind is a vision and space holder evolving our understanding of wealth beyond the financial. “Inner wealth” reminds us all of the intangibles such as universal love, service and character growth that bring us true, collective wellbeing”. She is the Founding Director of Inner Wealth, a purpose-led consultancy that nurtures life-giving leadership, workplaces, education and changemaking.
Here are just a couple of takeaways from our conversation:
The Ripple Effect of Kindness: Vadivu shared that communication is an act of service, and by being mindful of our words and actions, we can positively impact others. Imagine the transformation in our workplaces and communities if we all committed to this practice! Let’s be the catalysts for change by embodying kindness and compassion in our daily interactions.
Creating Meaningful Connections: Vadivu highlights the importance of connection, not just with others, but with ourselves. She encourages us to check in with our own values and motivations, and to surround ourselves with individuals who embody the qualities we aspire to cultivate. By building a personal universe of "inner billionaires," we can support each other in our journeys toward growth and service. This connection is vital for fostering a fulfilling and human-centered culture in our workplaces.
As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts on this episode!
What does ‘inner wealth’ mean to you, and how are you currently nurturing it in your daily life?

Addendum: The three questions, “Did I give and receive love? Did I become all I can be? Did I leave the planet a little better?” were what Dr Elisabeth-Kubler Ross found people asked themselves to determine whether their life had been meaningful as reported in “Whistle While You Work” by Richard J. Leider and David A. Shapiro.
