From the world of boxing, fitness, and healthcare, Andrew Woods has had a dedicated decade to educating, instructing, and inspiring a community for wellbeing and happiness within. 

Andrew started his formal boxing training in the city of Watts, California at the Broadway Boxing Gym as an (ABA) American Boxing Association coach. He was educated in World History & Kinesiology at Cal Polytechnic University Pomona while honing his skills in the field.

“We as the human family have a responsibility to uplift & encourage one another while uprooting the many things that hinder us from achieving success. Our job is to help you continue your fight towards victory over life’s challenges. Our members come in all different physical shapes, ages, ethnicities & educational backgrounds; regardless of those differences we are all here to support & expound on the beauty you were already created in,” Andrew Woods mentions.

He featured as a guest at the ‘Finding Your Atom’ podcast series, co-hosted by Amrita Sen and Dinis Guarda. He takes them on an enlightening journey of finding self-care and betterment. Here are some of the excerpts from the interview.

Finding the core

Andrew highlights the essence of focussing on the ‘core’ that is the centre of any fitness program or regime. It is his utmost belief that realising the centre of every action is ‘self’. He insists that understanding that one’s body, mind, and spirit should be in harmony with the goals and tasks it is assigned with.

“It starts with the basic understanding of ‘What is it that I want, what is it that I treasure, what is it that I reward, and do I have the mental, physical, and spiritual conditioning to keep it?’. That’s the key to strengthening the core”, he emphasises.

The importance of recovery

The human body is programmed to heal itself, provided it is given sufficient time for the same. Andrews explains this with several examples during an hour-long session. He assures that it brings no harm to the velocity of life, and one never misses on to anything on coming to a transient period of recovery.

“If you find yourself hitting the hall, take the time out to rest. Recover. You’ll be surprised what your body can come up with by just not doing anything. It’s okay, doesn’t mean you’re missing out on anything. It doesn’t mean that you’re not doing anything. It’ doesn’t mean that you’re being lazy or procrastinating. It’s just I’m going to use wisdom this time. I’m just going to rest, relax my body. See what my body can come up with just by standing still”, Andrew stresses.

Balancing with ‘moderation’

Andrew has mastered the art of incorporating discipline, consistency, and self-control with fitness and healthcare. With a rough start at the beginning of his fitness journey, he has learnt that it is imperative to avoid extremes. Creating a balance between nutrition, work-out, and adequate rest is an inevitable step in achieving happiness, peace, and physical and mental wellbeing.

“It starts with the basics of having a foundation of what’s important for you and your life. Your health is number one. ‘Where do I start eating, thinking, and living healthy’, that’s the key. And that’s different, based upon every individual”, he insists.

Creating a relationship with the community

The hosts of the podcast and the guest himself were in consensus with the concept of getting involved in a community for wellbeing and happiness. Andrew explained that it is not only the personal level that a healthy lifestyle impacts in a positive way. It is responsible for the peace and betterment of society as a whole.

“I remind everyone, we’re here for one go, and that’s to get better. I don’t know if it’s to get better at being a better individual, a better wife, a better husband, a better family man, a better employee let’s figure out how we can get better as people. However, this journey that I’m going to take you on is a reminder that you’ll be going to have to fight in order to get there. So, if it’s joy, if it’s peace, if it’s a virtue such as self-control or discipline, we all need to support each other in regards to achieving that goal. So, let’s fight for this”.

The episode concluded on a very insightful note as Andrew enlightens “Are you taking care of yourself? Are you eating right? Are you thinking right? Are you loving right? Are you supporting right? Slow down to see where you hit. Don’t be in a rush. I try to encourage people to hone in on that. You got to slow down before you miss your stop. If you slow things down just a little bit, calm down, you’ll be surprised with the kind of revolution experience you’ve had. You’re not going to miss anything by just slowing down”.

Andrew’s achievements also include training amateur fighters as a certified USA Boxing Coach and as a group fitness boxing instructor at the Equinox Fitness Clubs in South Bay, Newport Beach, Westwood, Downtown LA, and Century City. He is also a well-respected speaker & educator for the greater Los Angeles public schools, churches, recreation centres, and community colleges.

• Embark on an exploration with co-hosts Amrita Sen and Dinis Guarda, where every episode of Finding Your Atom commits to poke the dynamic boundaries of the most basic principles of humanity, and master the practice of discovering your own ‘Personal Atomic Identifier’.

• The podcast was conceived by the creators of the “Music For” YouTube Podcast series to create a sphere for self-reflection, unearthing the journey of finding sustained happiness and, ultimately, world peace.

•  New episodes are released every Friday on the Dinis Guarda YouTube channel, with serial entrepreneur Steven Husak, Hollywood designer Mark Zunino, and leadership coach Katie Lockwood being the first guests.

The podcast series “Finding Your Atom” is a brainchild concept of co-hosts Amrita Sen: creator, artist, designer, singer and producer; and Dinis Guarda: author and founder of citiesabc, openbusinesscouncil, fashionabc and LynKey after the success of their previous podcast series “Music For”.  ‘Finding Your Atom’ is centred with the primary idea of recognising unique identifiers, thereby creating a hook that motivates the audience towards path-breaking concepts of mindfulness, sustained happiness, and world peace. The podcast is available on the Amrita Sen Youtube Podcast and Dinis Guarda YouTube channels and distributed in all other major podcast directories.

Bringing the expertise of their unique guest at every fresh episode of the podcast, the presenters peel through the layers of success and reveal their constantly battling energies. With every enthralling episode, the podcast divulges the heroic journey of negating the cacophony of needless thoughts in life and redirecting oneself to finding the fundamental ‘particle’ of happiness and peace.


Amrita Sen And Dinis Guarda Create Mindfulness And Rediscover Self At “Finding Your Atom” Podcast

Amrita and Dinis, who had already created their own podcast space with “Music For”, together embarked on the journey of meditation and wellbeing with music. With their new podcast, they benchmark the principles and practices that are congruently responsible for making the world a healthier and happier place to thrive for our generations.

Being a reservoir of knowledge and deep thoughts, Amrita has had her share of experiences through an unruly path of turmoil. It is her firm belief that identifying yourself at the most basic of levels is half the battle won.

“Let’s shrink down. What are you good at, at the most atomic of levels? Once we think about that, it becomes very clear every person has a thing. There are about 7 billion people in the world. It seems less likely that even five of them are identical. It’s impossible. There are billions and billions of stars in the universe, they have their own unique formation identifiers. Then, why is it so hard to believe that every soul in the world, including mine or my mom’s (who is in heaven now), has a unique identifier? I want to challenge everybody: what is your atomic level identifier? What is really the essence where you have something to say? What is it that only you can say? We will have to shrink it to that level”, Amrita explains excitedly.

At the premiering episode of the podcast, Steven Husak, a successful entrepreneur, reveals his journey of exploration of his own ‘Atom’. He gradually unveils the challenges he faced in his business, evolving his strategies over time based on various parameters. He also shares his experiences during the journey and the ways in which he has embraced the digital frameshift in the entire industry.

“Neil Armstrong had some fears when he stepped on the moon, and we are not anything even close to that. That’s it, don’t be afraid to take chances, go with it. Even if nobody trusts you, go with your dream”, he reassuringly reveals in the end.

Dinis Guarda, co-host of the podcast shares, “Looking at the layers of the society, understanding the concept of finding one’s atom is extremely fundamental in comprehending the pace and direction of life, providing it with enough impetus and consequently projecting in the most relevant direction. This is what mindfulness is. This is what the practice of self-awareness and reflection is, as guided by the most pious meditation and yoga practices since centuries. For me, creativity and the love of my dear ones are ‘My Atom’. It drives me to accept and embrace challenges in various ways, and keeps me motivated enough to find ways through every situation”.

Music For podcast is available on Dinis Guarda YouTube Channel, Amrita Sen YouTube Channel and major podcast directories.

About Mark Zunino

Celebrated Los Angeles based designer Mark Zunino has come to define “Red Carpet Style” over the last decade. Initially an advertising major at California’s prestigious Pepperdine University, a chance interview with legendary film and television designer Nolan Miller led to an apprenticeship in 1985 and, ultimately, a full-fledged career in fashion design now spanning over 30 years.

Learning the art of the couture business from European trained pattern makers and tailors, Mark was able to refine his skills and eventually launch his own label in 1998. The experience he received from designing for such Hollywood legends as Elizabeth Taylor and Sophia Loren allowed him to retain the values of old Hollywood glamour in his designs and reinterpret them for some of today’s hottest celebrities. Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Demi Moore, Gwyneth Paltrow, Courtney Cox and Brooke Burke are just some of the world’s most beautiful women that have recently worn the Mark Zunino label. From the personally hand-drawn sketches to choosing the finest fabrics from around the world, a Mark Zunino gown is always the epitome of female elegance, glamour and individuality. Appointments in his private salon are hard to come by, as each design is custom made from start to finish with no detail left unnoticed.

In 2011 Mark launched his ready-to-wear line on QVC called “The Mark Of Style,” as well as his first bridal collection with New York’s Kleinfeld Bridal. With shapewear, handbags and fragrances on the horizon, Mark Zunino plans on making his vision of glamour available to every woman seeking to express their inner beauty. Mark’s goal is, and has always been, to make every woman feel as though she were walking the red carpet every day of their lives.

Filmmaker Kireet Khurana joins Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power in the seventh episode of the ‘Living with Sunny’ Youtube podcast series. The three experts discuss the most prevalent issues in wellness: homelessness in India, poverty, impactful filmmaking, and more. Living with Sunny’s episode 7 is out now on YouTube and chosen podcast destinations.

Kireet Khurana is an Indian animator. In his career of 12 years, he has made over 300 short films, documentary films, ad films and also directed India’s first live action-3D animation film “Toonpur Ka Superhero”. Over the years he has won 5 President’s National Awards and 3 International Awards including Japan and Austria. He shares his extensive knowledge as a director with the listeners.

Khurana feels that he has a calling to make meaningful films, regardless of how popular the topic may be. “67 million is the population of France. You have 70 million destitute people in India. And you’re telling me that there is no market for this film? What kind of market are we talking about? Who is going to stand up for them? I mean, there are 42 million sex workers who are, most of them are victims of human trafficking. I know that there is no market for it, but is it about the market? Or is it about having a heart?” says Khurana.

In the corporate responsibility area, Singh has made a plea for the corporations to:

“For every corporation in the world should take ownership of a social initiative, or more than one, or a partial social initiative. Something they’re passionate about and something they believe in. But take ownership of it, don’t write a cheque to a charity. Partner up with it but you own it. Because companies are the best at solving problems, why, because that’s why they were formed in the first place, to solve a problem. That would cause a sea change”.

Living with Sunny Episode 2 – The Much Needed Wellbeing Conversation


The ‘Living with Sunny’ YouTube podcast series is co-hosted by Sunny (Gurpreet) Singh and Thomas Power. As seekers of wellbeing, the two interview a range of figures from the worlds of business, medicine, academia, science, technology, and publishing, to explore individual wellbeing journeys and map out society’s progress towards a better, more harmonious world, across various industries.

About The Invisible Visible

THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE is a poignant ‘Impact’ documentary feature on the estimated 70 million homeless people in India. It draws attention towards these ‘invisibles’ and seeks to ‘visibilize’ them. The sordid stories of the homeless people humanize them and depict how poverty has been criminalised under an archaic, draconian law in India. The stories unfold through the lens of India’s leading crusaders – TARIQUE MOHAMMED, and his organisation members who have dedicated their lives to the homeless and destitute. The fight against injustice and violence is an ongoing one and THE INVISIBLE VISIBLE has some call to action.
