Discover the 7 steps to heal yourself and transform how you lead, live, and serve.

The World Doesn’t Need More Burned-Out Leaders.

It Needs Healed Ones.

Everywhere you look, organizations are striving for success, but behind the polished logos and quarterly goals, countless leaders are quietly breaking down.

They’ve lost touch with who they are.
They’re running on empty, leading from depletion instead of wholeness.
And it’s costing them—their peace, their relationships, and their purpose.

But what if leadership didn’t have to mean sacrifice?
What if healing yourself was the most powerful thing you could do for your company—and everyone it touches?

A Transformative Path to Wholeness and Purpose

Healing Leaders: 7 Steps to Recovery of Self isn’t just another leadership book—it’s a spiritual and emotional roadmap for reclaiming your humanity in a world that asks you to perform, produce, and pretend.

Written by Raj Sisodia, co-founder of the Conscious Capitalism movement, and Nilima Bhat, global leadership mentor and transformation catalyst, this guide invites you to lead from a place of self-awareness, compassion, and inner strength.

Through vulnerable storytelling, reflective practices, and practical tools, you’ll learn to:

Know Yourself – Remove the masks and rediscover your authentic identity.
Love Yourself – Embrace your shadows as part of your wholeness.
Be Yourself – Lead with presence, not perfection.
Be Yourself – Lead with presence, not perfection.
Express Yourself – Turn your purpose into powerful impact.
Complete Yourself – Integrate every part of who you are.
Heal Yourself – Transform your wounds into wisdom that uplifts others.

For Leaders

Who Are Ready to Evolve

Then this is your call to lead differently.

Healing doesn’t weaken leadership—it redefines it.

What Readers Are Saying

"Leadership is not dominance, it is a certain sacrifice. Leadership is not about ruling someone, it is about making someone’s life. Any leader who does not feel a sense of oneness and inclusiveness with the people around him cannot be a genuine leader. Today, thanks to technology, human beings are empowered like never before. So it is most important for everyone, particularly leaders whose decisions affect millions of lives, to embrace conscious and inclusive leadership. I am sure this book will go a long way in helping to create a Conscious Planet. Let us make it happen."

"Luminous...life-altering. “Healing Leaders: Seven Steps to Recovery of Self” is the best book on leadership development I have ever read in the field of management. Evolving holistically and growing in alignment with the most profound truths and positive powers of who you are is not just a box to check. It’s a lifelong task. The world-renowned Raj Sisodia and Nilima Bhat have gifted each of us—and the entire field of leadership development and continuous betterment—with powerful pathways and profound practices to help leaders turn hard setbacks, unhealed wounds, and chaotic turbulence into fertile forces for not only healing and resilience, but also for propelling one’s intrinsic gifts to lead. For me, reading this book was a wake-up call for depth. Everything else in leadership coaching and development now looks so superficial. This is a masterful volume for every leader, whether young or old, who wishes to be fully alive, building better businesses and better worlds."

David Cooperrider

Distinguished University Professor at Case Western Reserve University and author of The Business of Building a Better World, and Appreciative Inquiry: A Positive Revolution in Change

"Healing Leaders is an inspiring invitation to see leadership as an act of healing. Raj Sisodia and Nilima Bhat share seven transformative steps to help us lead with authenticity and love, showing how healing ourselves can heal the world. This book is an essential guide for leaders who long to make work a place of wholeness and profound human flourishing."

Chip Conley

New York Times bestselling author and founder of the Modern Elder Academy

"Healing Leaders is not just a book. It is a powerful manual for personal growth that also propels others around you on their own journeys. We are all wounded. We are all bleeding from a thousand psychological cuts. Most of us don't know how injured we are. It is only when you begin to heal yourself that you can truly help others. Sisodia and Bhat offer you a blueprint for curing yourself. What happened to you is important. The stories you tell yourself about what happened to you is much more important. Sisodia and Bhat help you tell better stories. Stories with immense curative powers."

Srikumar Rao

executive coach, TED speaker and creator of the pioneering course "Creativity and Personal Mastery"

"Leaders of all types, first and foremost of oneself, are at a pivotal point. A new modality is desperately required if we are to create a viable future. I believe Nilima and Raj have identified such a path that when implemented can lead oneself, one’s organization, and the world at large into a new paradigm.”

Stephen Badger

Former Chairman of Mars, Incorporated

"With wisdom, wit, and just the right amount of tough love, Raj and Nilima show that the only thing riskier than ignoring your wounds is letting them pick your next team-building exercise. Heal yourself, lead better, and maybe even stop yelling at your printer. Healing Leaders is your seven-step program to not just outward success, but to something far more important: inward sanity."
