We are called to:
Belonging Statement
Our Mission
We challenge the idea that anxiety, burnout, and disconnection are personal failures, and work to make visible the systems that shape how we live, work, relate, and understand ourselves. We resist the reduction of inner life to performance, optimisation, or data, and argue instead for forms of life that allow depth, relationship, and meaning to endure.
At the heart of this work is a simple conviction: human beings are not problems to be managed. We are shaped by environments — social, technological, and cultural — that can either support or diminish our capacity to belong.
Why We Exist
We exist to understand how culture, technology, and social conditions shape how people think, feel, and relate. By examining the interplay between human behaviour, emotion, and meaning, we aim to make sense of experiences that are often treated as personal shortcomings rather than contextual realities.
Our goal is to share this understanding in ways that deepen self-recognition, widen perspective, and support more thoughtful, humane forms of living together.
How We Do It
Our work combines research, practice, and public engagement to understand how contemporary systems shape inner life, care, and belonging.
Non-Fiction
The Algorithmic State
The Algorithmic State (forthcoming) explores why rising anxiety, burnout, loneliness and social fragmentation are increasingly structural consequences of the economic, political and technological systems that organise modern life. Drawing on psychology, neuroscience, political economy and technology, it argues that power has progressively migrated from external institutions into the nervous system itself, reshaping attention, identity and behaviour through environments designed for optimisation, prediction and continuous engagement. Rather than asking how individuals can cope better, The Algorithmic State asks a more fundamental question: what kind of society would allow people to finally stand down?
Fiction
Borderless
Borderless (2026) is a literary novel about the seduction of reinvention. When Charlotte Hughes leaves London for India, she imagines she can escape the borders that have shaped her life—of nation, class, ambition and identity. Instead, she discovers that every crossing creates new boundaries, and every search for freedom carries its own forms of exile. Spanning Delhi, Bangalore, Goa and the Himalayan foothills, Borderless is an exploration of love, power, belonging and the uneasy freedoms of contemporary global life.
