Born in Brazil, Sah immigrated to the US at age 16. By his early 20s, he had found great success in the fashion industry as cofounder and creative director of an international fashion magazine, and yet he was overwhelmed by addiction, depression, and anxiety.

In 2013, Sah embarked on a journey to Nepal, India, Thailand, and Indonesia to study with great spiritual masters such as His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Lama Zopa Rinpoche, and Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo. Sah developed a revolutionary healing approach blending ancient Tantric Buddhism and modern contemplative psychotherapy, served with a twist of his trademark sass. He is also passionate about sharing his mission with the underserved, advocating for mental health and well-being in the LGBTQIA+ and POC communities.
