Kanwal Jehan

​​Kanwal Jehan is the Founder of GrowthSpire, a wellness leadership company devoted to guiding mission-driven leaders in times of uncertainty. A native New Yorker and a world traveler, Kanwal has spent her life walking between worlds — as an adventurer, a wanderer, and a guide. Before founding her own company, she spent over a decade as an executive and community leader in New York’s fast-paced tech world, where she witnessed firsthand the weight of burnout, disconnection, and chronic stress. This became the foundation of her work today — blending leadership experience with embodied wisdom. In the last 10 years, her journey has taken her to sacred learning grounds in Bali, Thailand, Peru, and beyond, where she has immersed herself in learning mindfulness, nervous system regulation, somatic practices, yoga, and more. ​​Her roots trace back to her Pashtun, Afghan, and Pakistani ancestry — lineages steeped in resilience, connection, community, and legacy. She carries these values into every space she holds, creating containers where healing becomes not only personal, but also collective.
