THE AUTHOR:

Gopi Kallayil is the author of“ Happy Human” & The Internet to the Inner – Net.  Happiness is a multi million-dollar industry, catering to our deep desire to live a joyful life and to a belief that, as human beings, we deserve to be happy.  Kallayil believes in reversing that equation. He holds that what we truly deserve is to be human, and that the key to happiness lies in being 100 percent who we are, reveling in our authentic selves, even if—maybe especially if—that means falling on our faces.

He received MBAs from the Indian Institute of Management and the Wharton School. An avid yoga practitioner, triathlete, global traveler, and Burning Man devotee. He sits on the board of the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation, has spoken at TEDx, The World Happiness Summit, and Wisdom 2.0.
