THE CHANDE PROJECT

We didn’t start The Chande Project with a brand plan or a polished vision. It began with some honest conversations about the kind of life we wanted to live, and the kind of space we wished existed for others.

Shiv had been working as a doctor for years—supporting people’s health while quietly unravelling inside. The pressure, the pace, the emotional weight… it was all a lot. What started as a calling began to feel like survival. So he stepped back and started investing in something deeper: learning how to slow down, regulate, reconnect. Hundreds of hours of yoga, breathwork, coaching, philosophy. Not as a checklist—but as a way back to himself.

Rajiv left a career in investment banking—a world of precision, pressure, and performance—and was in a different kind of wilderness. He wanted something real. He went travelling and became curious about how to create a life that felt honest and human, filled with meaningful connection. 

We ran a retreat together in 2024, unsure of what we were doing but knowing we had to try. It was raw and imperfect—and full of magic. We saw people soften. Come alive. Drop their masks. Laugh like kids. Connect like they hadn’t in years.

And we realised… this is it.
This is the work.

The Chande Project isn’t just about wellness. It’s about remembering how to be human—with all the contradictions that come with that. It’s science and soul, laughter and stillness, depth and play.

We don’t have all the answers.
But we know how to create a space where something real can happen. Something clients have described as 'life-changing.'

That’s enough to keep us going.
