Takin’ My Time: the Power of a Pause

In a world consumed by speed, distractions, and pressure, hip hop humanitarian Nimo Patel invites us to slow down and embrace the beauty and power found in a pause. Through a stunningly playful music video created in collaboration with musician Daniel Nahmod and filmmaker Ellie Walton, the singers reminds us that ‘taking my time’ is not about idleness, but a mindful choice to savor life’s moments, nurture relationships, and align with purpose. Nimo himself is no stranger to the power found in taking a pause. With his early adulthood spanning MTV rap stardom, high-paced Wall Street life, and founding an animation startup, a gnawing sense of emptiness led him to return to his ancestral roots, which found him meditating in the mountains of North India and surfacing a path of service through the performing arts with children in the slums and communities around the globe. His journey is a testament to a life transformed by listening to inner whispers and flowing in the spirit of humanity. Enjoy this latest music video that captures the colorful spirit of takin’ our time.
