Episode 3 - Ganan Kanagathurai’s From Corporate CEO to Co-Owner of Roti King!

Ganan Kanagathurai: From Corporate Boardrooms to Queues at Roti King ✨

On this episode of Life Mastery, I sit down with my friend Ganan Kanagathurai, who has had one of the most fascinating and unconventional career journeys I know.

At just 38, Ganan became CEO of Itsu, one of the UK’s most respected Asian-inspired food brands. Today, he’s the co-owner of Roti King — and if you know anything about the London food scene, you’ll know the name. Long queues, cult following, and a testament to what happens when you bet on passion over paychecks.

In this conversation, we dig deep into:

• His leap from high-flying corporate life in London and LA to the unpredictable world of restaurants.
  
  
• What those years at global giants taught him — and why they didn’t fulfil him.
  
  
• How a heart scare forced him to ask the hardest question: When is enough, enough?
  
  
• Why he believes real success is about people, not titles.
  
  
• And what it really takes to leave the security of the boardroom for the chaos of the kitchen.
  
  

This is an episode for anyone who’s wondering what ‘success’ really means, and what happens when you stop chasing status and start chasing what truly matters.If you enjoyed this episode and want to hear more, don’t forget to subscribe and follow me across all platforms:
