LOS ANGELES, Nov 2, (Agencies): Jay Shetty and Radhi Devlukia understand that a successful marriage demands effort. They are concurrently navigating their relationship alongside their increasingly public lives, managing various businesses, podcasts, and book projects.

Devlukia, aged 33, reflects on the strength of their marriage, saying, “I think one of the things that has helped is that it may have grown a bit, but it hasn’t changed. Our foundations, we try to keep the same. The connections that we have are based on the same things. We’ve built our relationship on a spiritual platform. That’s how we first connected.”

Devlukia, a wellness expert and upcoming cookbook author, initially met Shetty in 2013 when he was a practicing monk, well before his career as an author and the host of the popular podcast “On Purpose,” where he interviews celebrities. The couple tied the knot three years later. Shetty, now 36, describes their journey as a rapid learning experience on how to be good partners. After their wedding, they encountered a series of significant life changes.

Shetty explains, “For me, I would say that I think it’s when you’re accelerating as a couple in any field of your life, I think it forces you to accelerate your connection. What I mean by that is, in 2016, we got married, changed jobs, moved countries, and moved our home all within three months. And that’s a lot.”

He continues, “I think that pressured us to figure out how to operate together as a couple in a very intense period, as opposed to, often, you kind of wouldn’t get that intensity if you didn’t go through all of that together. So, I think big changes force big awareness.”

However, Shetty is quick to emphasize that he and Devlukia are not exempt from challenges and imperfections. They have had to put in the work to nurture their relationship, just like any other couple.

“Now, that doesn’t mean we’re perfect, or we’ve figured it out, or it’s like we don’t have challenges. We have all of those things,” he clarifies. “But I think we had to quickly have a heightened sense of self-awareness and communication in a way that maybe could have taken us 10 years. We had to do it within a couple of years because we were just going through so many stressful, uncomfortable things.”
