Derek Haswell is the co-founder of the award-winning meditation app, Happier , where he spent the better part of a decade producing content with some of the world’s best meditation teachers & scientists — including the Dalai Lama.

He now spends his time as an executive coach — helping leaders drive more impact while becoming more aligned. In this conversation, we explore the difference between the waking up path and healing.

I was excited to explore this topic with Derek because many people, myself included, have experienced the limitations of pursuing either meditation or healing work in isolation.

His perspective on integrating both approaches while staying grounded in joy and authenticity is refreshing and practical.
