This week's guest on Inner Monologue is founder of MA I, Shanti Pavati. Born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, Shanti is a second generation Norwegian. Her ongoing summer trips to Norway sparked her wanderlust for travel. Along with her inspiration abroad, her participation in the transformational festival scene inspired her to create MAI. What is MA I? MA I is a personal philosophy, a tool for self-awareness, transcendence and our connection to the divine feminine.
