About This Episode

In this episode of The Innerverse of Business & Life, I sit down with Lily Sais—founder of Peace From Within, former school psychologist, and TikTok creator whose videos have touched the lives of millions.

Lily and I explore her deeply personal journey with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and panic attacks—and how those experiences ultimately opened a door to her creativity, healing, and purpose. She shares how the Three Principles changed everything, how she moved from white-knuckling through life to embracing her true nature, and how her desire to serve others sparked a business and community that continues to grow.

We talk about:

  • The moment that shifted her relationship with anxiety

  • What gave her the courage to start sharing publicly (even when it felt terrifying)

  • The surprising gift of going viral—and the backlash that came with it

  • Letting creativity lead the way (and why less effort can bring more clarity)

  • Navigating ADHD, business pressure, and visibility with grace

  • And how, at the heart of it all, fun and aliveness are still guiding her path

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, building a business, or just craving more freedom in your life—this conversation is full of insights, humanity, and hope.

Lily is the real deal. I’m so grateful to share her story with you.
