I'm Utsav. I'm a human who lives in San Francisco. I care deeply about living with authenticity, aliveness, and wonder. I steward this precious life, a company dedicated to helping humans live in cognizance of our shared interconnection and wholeness. this precious life's first offering is avocado, an ai guide that facilitates deeper connection with oneself and others.

I have been shaped by teachers, practices, and lineages of immeasurable richness and depth. they include Sleepawake (Cat Tweedie and Jeff Lieberman), Tibetan Buddhism (Dustin DiPerna), Lumina Process (Alexander Love), Emotional Surfing (Brian Basham), and many, many more.

a past partner, Shobha, wrote about our relationship for the New York Times' Modern Love column. it offers a window into relating with me: I Still Don't Know Why I Said Yes.

if you feel resonance with what I share here or would like to contribute a letter for the site, I encourage you to reach out at utsav [at] this site's domain. I'd be eager to connect with you on all things related to emotional and relational work, technology grounded in human values, authenticity, embodied presence, self-discovery, meditation, and more.
