In this episode, the spotlight is on Miss Sara, CEO of Somadome, whose remarkable path from the legal world to the forefront of meditation technology is a testament to the power of listening to one’s inner calling. A Journey of Transformation Miss Sara’s career began in a vastly different arena—law. Before that, she immersed herself in rhetoric, philosophy, and religion, disciplines that explore the deeper questions of life. But despite the stability and prestige of her legal career, Sara felt a pull toward something more aligned with her values. That “something” came in the form of Somadome, a unique meditation space that blends ancient practices with modern technology. The name itself reflects its essence: “Soma” for the body, and “dome” for the sanctuary it provides. The idea struck her not in a boardroom, but in a dream—an almost mystical “download” that planted the seed for what would become a global wellness innovation. Somadome: A Modern Sanctuary In a world of constant notifications, noise, and demands, Somadome offers something rare: a distraction-free environment for stillness and connection. Free from dogma and judgment, it’s a place where people can experience guided meditation, light therapy, and binaural beats in a fully enclosed personal pod. Sara shares moving stories of users who found relief from anxiety, clarity in moments of confusion, and even emotional breakthroughs inside the Somadome. These testimonials fuel her team’s dedication, reinforcing the belief that creating spaces for inner work can change lives. Defining Happiness and Spirituality For Sara, happiness is grounded in gratitude—pausing to appreciate small joys like walking her dog or sharing a laugh with friends. Spirituality, on the other hand, is the recognition of our interconnectedness with all beings. This awareness, she believes, naturally fosters empathy, kindness, and a deeper sense of purpose. Balancing Business and Well-Being Leading an innovative wellness company comes with its share of challenges, from navigating legal hurdles to scaling production. Yet Sara’s approach prioritizes peace over conflict—sometimes stepping away from battles that would drain energy better spent on creation. At Somadome, employee well-being is more than a perk—it’s embedded in the culture. The team regularly uses the Somadome themselves, cultivating mindfulness not just as a product, but as a way of working.

A Vision for Global Well-Being From her own life choices to the mission of her company, Sara embodies the belief that innovation should serve the heart as much as the mind. The Somadome is already touching lives around the world, offering a personal retreat for mental health in offices, homes, and wellness centers. In closing, she reminds listeners of the importance of staying connected to one’s purpose, and Professor Nan AA emphasizes how stories like Sara’s can inspire future generations to create meaningful change.
