Jay Shetty is a British Indian author, podcast host, and former monk. After graduating from Cass Business School in London, Shetty spent three years living as a monk in the Vedic tradition across India and Europe before returning to conventional life and building a large social media following, with videos amassing more than five billion views and a social following exceeding 30 million people. His 2020 book, Think Like a Monk, draws on his years in the ashram to translate monastic practices around mindfulness, purpose, and detachment from ego into practical exercises for a general audience. Shetty hosts the podcast On Purpose, which has ranked among the world's most listened-to health and wellness podcasts, featuring long-form conversations with public figures on personal growth and meaning.
