Sana Akhand
I help highly ambitious people get unstuck and create their dream life using the power of emotional intelligence, mindset work and authenticity.
Sana Akhand is a Speaker, Podcast Host, Writer, and the Founder of Friendship Club, on a mission to empower people to use emotional intelligence to build authentic connections with themselves & the world around them. She takes you on a transformational inner-work journey to heal life-long patterns to reclaim power over your life and choose a life of inner peace, joy and freedom.
Sana Akhand found herself married to the right man at the wrong time, in a job that gave her the status but not the satisfaction, and daily habits that left her feeling disconnected, lost and at war within her own mind. She built a picture perfect life that was built around external validation and societal norms.
In an effort to build an authentic life, she quit her 6-figure corporate job in NYC to travel the world, started her company Friendship Club to help New Yorkers connect human-first, and went on a deep inner-work journey when got her first solo apartment while married, a love story that went viral on the internet. Sana now lives across the country in LA leading a fulfilling life with peace, joy and freedom.
Sana grew up as a South Asian American and found it difficult to fit in either culture. She had to find ways to make her own rules to create her own happiness. Through her journey, Sana learned how to use the power of emotions to connect deeper with herself, find her true life purpose and create an aligned life and shift her relationships through empathy. Now she helps others break the chains of self doubt, limiting beliefs, and societal & cultural norms to become the creators of their dream life too.

Her first book will be released in 2023.
