About

FinerMinds was created in 2007, and was designed to be a hub of personal wellness information and enlightened ideas.

Over the past eight years, things have changed a little bit. So, I wanted to take you through the FinerMinds history and give you an idea of our background—and how far we’ve come.

Where did FinerMinds start?

FinerMinds had humble beginnings—but grew incredibly quickly. Created by Mindvalley’s founder, Vishen Lakhiani, FinerMinds has always been a place for people to share and absorb personal growth, spiritual and educational information.

Vishen initially created FinerMinds as his own blog to review and wax lyrical on other self-development programs and trainings. From this, it involved into a community, and Vishen started delivering content designed to help people connect with others, express themselves, and to generally explore the human condition.

Since then, FinerMinds has had a number of different editors, but one thing has remained the same—the commitment to fostering a thriving community of people who want to better themselves and the world around them.

What’s next for FinerMinds?


These days, I’m your FinerMinds editor (that’s me on the left), and I’m dedicated to bringing you the latest, greatest personal growth content this side of the internet.

On top of that, I’m really passionate about connecting with FinerMinds readers, and can often be found replying to comments and emails well past my bedtime! Helping people is my passion, and I feel blessed to have FinerMinds as a channel to change the world.

I have a lot of really exciting things planned for FinerMinds in the coming months, so stay tuned!

And so, this concludes our tour around the FinerMinds archives (for now), but if you’d like to contact me, please feel free to send me an email at editor@finerminds.com.
