Hey, I’m Saurabh. 👋 I’m the 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 & 𝐂𝐄𝐎 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐇𝐚𝐮𝐬, a bold new B2B events and storytelling brand built on one simple belief: 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬; 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦𝐬 𝐛𝐮𝐳𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲.

𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐨, 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭. Because coming out isn’t just telling people; it’s accepting what’s happening within you first. It takes guts - enormous guts.

And it takes even more courage when you are born and raised in a culture where these conversations aren’t encouraged…

and where no one has ever dared to come out, even though I’m sure there are many out there.

But before you even come out to anyone else, there’s a stage no one talks about:

𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟.
𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲. 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐲. 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐲.

You’re sitting with thoughts like:
“𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭?”
“𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘐 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘦?”
“𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘦?”

🥹 That realisation is weird.
🥹 It’s heavy.
🥹 And in that moment, it feels like the hardest thing in the world.

🫶 But the truth is that for many people, it only gets harder from there.

Maybe it was the openness of Sydney in 2021 that gave me the courage to finally do it. And that decision shaped my confidence in ways I never expected.

That confidence spilled into every part of my life.

I started a walking group.
I started a podcast.
I started coffee catch-ups.
And eventually I started building projects like LiveHaus and Impact Circle.

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮:
Coming out might feel like the biggest milestone but what comes after can be even tougher.

Being single after coming out has been rough in ways I never predicted. It started affecting my mental health quietly, over time.

And when you’ve never been in a relationship, it gets harder and harder to relate to people around you, especially when you’re at a similar age and everyone seems to be doing things you’re not doing.

❓It can make you feel behind.
❓Out of sync.
❓Like you’re watching life happen around you.

𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺 𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘨𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴; 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.

And while you do start understanding love in ways you’ve never seen before; it takes courage to keep your heart open without losing yourself.

So here’s my reminder today:

Before you meet anyone. Before you judge them. Before you assume they’re “all good”…

Ask a simple question:

R U OK?  

Because you never know what someone is carrying. And I can bet you, that one question can change lives.

If this resonates, message one close friend today and check in to see if they are really okay. Don’t wait for Sep to do that. 🧡

I didn’t start LiveHaus because I was waiting to get my Australian citizenship. I started it because I lost my job. Twice. Yesterday, someone asked me if LiveHaus was something I’d been waiting to launch after getting my citizenship.

Truth is that LiveHaus wasn’t part of the plan at all.
In June 2025, I lost my job.
I spent two months in a brutal job market.

Finally landed a role that felt perfectly aligned with my strengths.
Then I lost that job within a month.

At that point, I had two options:
1️⃣ Jump back into a job market that wasn’t exactly inspiring
2️⃣ Take a calculated risk and build something of my own

I chose option two.

Before LiveHaus even had a name (or a logo), a few people backed the idea purely on belief:
🍵 Sid Tatikonda (Antler)
Visakhan Vythilingam
Ricky Pearl (Pointer)
George & Adem (The B2B Playbook)

No pitch deck.
No event announced.
Just trust.

I opened a Notion doc and asked myself:
❓ What am I genuinely good at?
❓ What do I love doing?
❓ Where does my 6+ years in Australia and my network actually matter?

The answer was obvious:
🫡 6 years in sales
🫡 3 years deep in HR tech
🫡 Strong communities across Sales and People/HR
🫡 Sydney as home turf for community-building

I also knew I was in a rare position to take a risk:
🔥 Citizenship secured (no visa dependency)
🔥 Savings in the bank
🔥 No debt, no dependents
🔥 So I went all in.

I built a team of interns across design, web, socials, outreach, partnerships, photography, videography and yes, even a DJ because if we were going to do this, it had to be high-quality from day one.

Was it risky?
😑 Absolutely.
😑 New brand.
😑 Zero credibility.
😑 Launching events during the busiest season of the year.
😑 Clashing with Christmas parties.

But I wanted to prove something to myself more than anyone else.

Then came a massive moment:
Highspot (via Joe Hindmarsh MBA) became our first-ever LiveHaus sponsor, backed by incredible partners like:
Stolen+Co (Steve Tolen)
Pointer (Ricky Pearl & Cameron Morgan)
Earlywork (🌞 Dan Brockwell)
The B2B Playbook and Chief Revenue School (Adem Manderovic & George Coudounaris)

That momentum didn’t just validate LiveHaus. It unlocked Season 2: bigger, sharper, and more ambitious.

If there’s one takeaway from this:
Sometimes the thing you’re most proud of doesn’t come from careful planning, it comes from being forced to choose courage over comfort.

Founders. Sales leaders. HR and tech operators. If you’re building something meaningful in Australia, Season 2 of LiveHaus is for you.

𝐓𝐰𝐨 𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐠𝐬. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲. 🇦🇺🇮🇳Today is a rare and meaningful coincidence. 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 𝐃𝐚𝐲 and 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚’𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐃𝐚𝐲 fall on the same date.

🫶 Five months ago, after six years of living in Sydney, I stood at the Sydney Town Hall and took the Australian citizenship oath. Not just as a formality but as a commitment.

💛 A commitment to the freedoms this country offers.
💛 To the liberties we sometimes take for granted.
💛 To the values that quietly make Australia one of the best places in the world to live.

Australia is special not because it’s perfect but because it strives to be fair, open, and human.

Today is also a moment to acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, who were here long before any of us, and whose history and culture remain foundational to this land.

Australia’s strength has also come from migration from people arriving with hope, effort, and the willingness to contribute. That’s what has made this country culturally rich, diverse, and globally respected.

I’ve seen this firsthand.
Through 100+ coffee catch-ups, 90+ community walks, and countless conversations, I’ve met hundreds of Australians from all backgrounds. I’ve also travelled across Europe.
I can say this with conviction: 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐭.

But friendliness should never be mistaken for weakness. And openness should never be taken for granted.

Recent events remind us that immigration cannot only be about opportunity; it must also be about responsibility.

Bringing your culture to Australia is something to be proud of. But accepting 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐬, 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐧-𝐧𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞.

You’re not asked to erase who you are. You are asked to honour where you’ve chosen to belong.

That’s why I believe the conversation around granting citizenship should go deeper: not just testing knowledge, but 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐬, 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐫, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐮𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. If someone chooses to live in Australia, integrating into the Australian way of life, values, and respect for others should be part of that commitment.

Today also marks 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚’𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐃𝐚𝐲, a celebration of democracy, constitution, and collective responsibility.

As an Indian-Australian, I feel grateful to belong to both stories and conscious of the duty that comes with that privilege.

Citizenship isn’t just a status.
It’s a responsibility we live every day.

Let’s have a respectful conversation today about belonging, responsibility, and what it truly means to call a country “home.”

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

✈️ Moving countries alone should count as a personality trait.  Because if you’ve ever moved away from where you grew up: new city, new country, new everything, 

…and figured it out on your own?

Don’t let anyone ever tell you you’re not brave.

When I landed in Australia…
I landed by myself.

No family waiting for me.
No friends.
No familiar faces.
No “friend of a friend” to save me.

And I still remember Day 1 in Sydney like it was yesterday.

It felt… odd.
Unreal.
Heavy.

My mind was full of doubt:

What have I done?
Was this the right decision?
Will I make new friends?
How do I even start building a life here?

It wasn’t just a new country.

It was a 180-degree culture shift from where I came from.

Different people.
Different lifestyles.
Different conversations.
Different everything.

⸻

Over time, I learned the “real moving countries” curriculum:

Making new friends as an adult.
Starting new projects from scratch.
Finding your people without a shortcut.
Building a routine with zero support.

Choosing a path in the unknown…
getting lost…
finding a new path…
then getting lost again.

But here’s what nobody tells you:

That’s not failure.
That’s growth.

Because when you build your life from zero, you discover a version of yourself you never met back home.

More resilient.
More independent.
More grounded.
More confident.

You learn to sit with solitude without calling it loneliness.
You learn to start again without needing validation.
You learn to back yourself; even when no one else can see the vision yet.

So if you’ve moved away and built your life from scratch…

I see you.

Packing up your whole life and starting fresh in the unknown?

That’s one of the bravest things a person can do.

Respect. Always. ❤️

I know some of my friends can relate well to what I am saying here: Sara, Mohit, Utkarsh and many more.

This isn’t another “sales event”.

It’s:
 ✅ high-energy room
 ✅ practical GTM playbooks
 ✅ elite people
 ✅ great food + drinks
 ✅ DJ energy
 ✅ content you’ll actually share after

𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐲. 𝐔𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦. 🥺 That’s the energy we felt at SalesHaus Season 1. When we were outreaching last season, we thought we were just inviting people to a networking night.

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐫:
✅ passion
✅ eagerness to learn

𝐒𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐞’𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐇𝐚𝐮𝐬:
A quarterly room where Australia’s sales + GTM people can come together to:
🔥 share what’s trending
🔥 learn from real operators (not theory)
🔥 build high-trust relationships
🔥 and experience a modern B2B event setting that feels fresh, fun, and valuable

If LiveHaus can contribute to creating that space, then we’ve achieved what we set out to build.

🔥 And now we’re taking SalesHaus Season 2 to Sydney AND Melbourne.

If I could bet on only 3 skills to win in 2026, it’s these: 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠. Because let’s be real: In 2026, it won’t matter only what you know. 

It will matter who knows you, what they remember about you, and what they say about you when you’re not in the room.
1) 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠
Your brand should speak for you: even when you’re not in the meeting.
It’s your reputation, positioning, and signal in a noisy market.

2) 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠
Great storytellers don’t “sell”.
They move people.
They make their work feel meaningful.
They turn ideas into belief.

3) 𝐍𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠
It’s no longer optional.
Opportunities move through people; not job boards.

And here’s the magic:
𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 3 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐮𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞.

That’s exactly what we’re building with LiveHaus: a room where ambitious operators, founders, creators, and leaders come together to:
✅ sharpen their brand
✅ learn how to communicate with power
✅ build genuine connections that lead to real outcomes

𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 6+ 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐨 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫. I moved here to build a life.

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬:
You can have a great job, a busy schedule, even a strong network and still feel lonely.

Because belonging doesn’t come from being “around people”.
Belonging comes from being seen.

𝐈 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐲 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐲𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐲: trying to fit in, trying to find my people, and quietly learning how to start over in a new country.

𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠:
👉 The fastest way to build connection isn’t small talk. It’s stories.

The real ones.
The messy ones.
The ones people usually hide behind “I’m all good.”

And honestly, that’s also why R U OK? matters so much to me.

Because a lot of the time, people aren’t okay.
They’re just getting better at pretending.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐈 𝐝𝐨 𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐟𝐟:
☕ coffees
🚶‍♂️ walks
🏃 runs
👥 meetups
🎤 LiveHaus events
🎤 Impact Circle events 

Not because I’m “busy”.
But because connection is medicine and you never know what someone is silently carrying.

That’s also why I’m genuinely excited about an event happening in Sydney:

🔥 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐢𝐫 🔥
A night of raw human storytelling built around themes like:
blind faith, beginnings, finding belonging, twists of fate, becoming invincible.

If you’ve ever…
🫶 felt disconnected even while surrounded by people
🫶 needed perspective
🫶 wanted to feel inspired again
🫶 or just wanted to be in a room that feels human…

…this is your sign.

📍 Sydney CBD
🗓 Tue 17 Feb | 6-9pm
📌 Mezzanine House

If you want to come, I’ll put the ticket links in the Comments section below.  

And if you’re more of a “connection in motion” person:

🌊 I’m also organising a Coogee to Bondi walk this Sunday. Happy to add you to the WhatsApp group if you’re keen. 

Let’s keep building rooms (and walks) where people feel seen. ❤️
