Serial entrepreneur Miki Agrawal, renowned for her disruptive innovation and impactful ventures such as TUSHY and THINX, takes a bold step into the music industry with her debut album ‘It All Exists,’ out now under the moniker, Soul Gaze, with veteran musician Happie Hoffman. With a prolific career as a social entrepreneur, Agrawal has made a name for herself by challenging the status quo and changing cultural narratives. While she is widely recognized for her successful ventures and best-selling books, Agrawal is venturing into uncharted territory with her first foray into music, inspired by her recent divorce from her partner of 11 years. Out now on all digital platforms, ‘It All Exists’ showcases Agrawal's unique creative expression and features collaborations with Happie Hoffman and the fourth-generation professional musician, producer Gene Evaro Jr.
Agrawal's introduction to the music world came through her involvement with the creative community and her deep connection with the Daybreaker movement. Founded by her twin sister, Daybreaker organizes epic morning dance parties worldwide, where movement and dance serve as a spiritual practice to shift energy at the start of the day. Inspired by the power of dance as a healing tool, Agrawal saw music as the next edge for her creative expression.
Partnering with the talented Happie Hoffman and esteemed producer Gene Evaro Jr. (Ry X), Agrawal embarked on an experimental musical journey. Drawing from the personal experience of her transformative divorce, Agrawal channeled her emotions and outlook into the album, writing all of the lyrics and creating all of the initial melodies, and then working closely with Hoffman to enhance the musical compositions. The resulting album is a testament to Agrawal's unique perspective on love, relationships, and personal growth. Each of the eight tracks delves into different aspects of the human experience, capturing the messy, beautiful, hopeful, and challenging elements of love. Hoffman's angelic voice lends itself to the singing parts, while Agrawal delivers spoken word elements, resulting in a captivating blend of sound and expression.
In a unique twist, Soul Gaze has also released an alternate acoustic version of the album, reflecting the myriad emotional landscapes that accompany the human experience. From the exhilaration of love to the heartache of loss and the renewal that follows, Soul Gaze's dual versions of 'It All Exists' offer a profound exploration of the multifaceted nature of our emotions.

Reflecting on the album, Agrawal shares, "Music became a potent outlet for me during my transition out of my marriage. It allowed me to express my deepest yearnings, desires, frustrations, and realizations about love. Collaborating with Happie Hoffman and Gene Evaro Jr. was an incredible journey of trust and vulnerability. We explored the fusion of dance music and heartfelt lyrics to create an album that shifts energy and promotes healing."
‘It All Exists’ features a collection of heartfelt songs that delve into the diverse spectrum of human emotions and experiences. "Antarctica" captures the enchantment and liberation found in falling in love with the seventh continent, drawing inspiration from its pure natural elements. "Do Less Be More" expresses a deep yearning for presence, emphasizing the importance of being fully present in the moment. "Fire" ignites the burning fire within our hearts, even when faced with external coldness and closure. "The Queen" reminds us that our anger is as sacred as our joy, encouraging us to embrace and seek acceptance and love through all of our emotions. "Changed" invites acceptance of personal growth and transformation, recognizing that change is a natural part of love's journey. Each song on the album offers a unique perspective on love, weaving together a captivating narrative that resonates with listeners.

“I was so transported by your music and the intention behind it,” a listener told Miki. “It just made me realize that I had never really processed the separation with my husband in this way.

And everything that you said, everything that you put into your music just resonated inside of me, and it really completed something, a process, and I’m just so grateful for that.”
