Sudha Suthanthiram

Sudha’s journey has spanned the globe—from the fast-paced world of New York City to the spiritual depths of India—transitioning from a technical career to a life of artistic exploration and service.

Her creation, A Sunlit Path, reflects her soul’s desire to unite diverse worlds—east and west, tradition and modernity, art and science—into a nurturing space for herself and others. With a deep commitment to holding a loving space for others, she offers:

  • Meditation, Yoga, Movement, and Theatre classes for both adults and children

  • Private Life Coaching sessions

After working as a network security engineer at Bell Labs, Sudha felt a profound calling for a more fulfilling life. She left her successful career and immersed herself in the world of performing arts in New York City, studying at The Stella Adler Studio and working as a model, dancer, and actor. Her transformative time in India deepened her understanding of dance, meditation, and holistic healing.

In 2008, she founded DiscoverSwasth, a non-profit dedicated to art and healing. Later, her journey led her back to India, where she expanded into theatre, art therapy, permaculture, and teaching yoga and movement in schools. From 2018, her Breathe with Sudha videos and holistic wellness coaching allowed her to share insights gained from her diverse experiences.

In 2022, A Sunlit Path was born, inspired by her love for Tamil spiritual traditions and her longing for a holistic life enriched by song, dance, prayer, and community.

Sudha’s diverse training includes:

Her technical background includes a Master’s in Electrical Engineering from Columbia University, and she spent six years contributing to top-secret research in Network Security at Bell Laboratories.
