A bit about me
I’m a blend of East and West—born in India, but California has been my home for years. If you met me, you’d probably notice that I’m a great listener, someone who can guide you toward an empowered, healthier, and more balanced life.
But I didn’t arrive here overnight; it’s been a journey filled with struggles, realizations, and growth. This path led me to a state where I now believe that "Aging is Golden."
BodyTalk Energy Medicine and mindfulness have been the keys to connecting the dots for me. In my personal life, I love to hike, read, and travel. Friends often reach out to me, not just for healing but for advice on travel, life, and beyond.
I invite you to break free, empower yourself, and meet a friend along the way!

My Journey
Career Trasitions
My professional journey has been full of shifts and turns.
Initially, I pursued a BS in Medical Science with dreams of becoming a doctor. When that didn’t materialize, I pivoted and earned an MS in English Literature, eventually becoming a professor. Teaching, however, wasn’t my final destination.
When I moved to California, Silicon Valley’s allure drew me in, and I completed an MS in Engineering. This opened the door to a fulfilling career in tech while I was also raising my twins.
Throughout these transitions, I became deeply aware of the high-stakes stress that Silicon Valley exerts on its professionals. I’ve felt the toll, but I also know how you can survive and thrive here. My own experiences have ignited a passion for helping women professionals and entrepreneurs find their path amidst the chaos.
Health Issues and Solutions
Like many, I faced my own health battles.
What started as back pain evolved into Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and even surgery couldn’t provide lasting relief. Then came the panic attacks, particularly while flying, which began to disrupt both my personal and professional life.
Later, a Glaucoma diagnosis led to more surgeries, which, while preventing further damage, challenged my brain’s adaptation to these changes.
Despite the care I received from Western medicine, I felt an inner nudge to find something more holistic. This urge became unavoidable when I suffered from debilitating sciatica pain. Surgery seemed like the only solution, but I trusted my instincts and began exploring alternatives. Over the course of six months, I discovered that the emotional and mental roots of my pain had to be addressed. This personal healing experience led me to BodyTalk—it wasn’t just a modality I learned; I lived it.
Discovering Body Talk
My introduction to BodyTalk came from a chance meeting with a visitor from London. Something clicked as she spoke, and I knew I had found the modality that would truly heal me. After my first session with a local practitioner, I was hooked. I dove deep into the practice, completing all core BodyTalk courses. Now, after 10 years as a practitioner, I’m still in awe of how expansive BodyTalk is and the global community I’ve connected with.
Building Mindfulness in the Corporate World
As my passion for BodyTalk grew, so did my interest in mindfulness. I realized how much my work could benefit from a regular meditation practice.
My company offered Mindfulness Classes, and I eventually became certified to teach them. I started leading classes at work and found this role incredibly rewarding.
In 2017, I founded my own business focused on teaching mindfulness, offering BodyTalk sessions, and connecting with conscious leaders across industries.
