I wasn’t born in India, India was born in me.

Started in Connecticut, shaped in Georgia, and now thriving in California. Three different worlds shaped me, pushing me to always search for more. More growth. More meaning. More of what’s out there beyond what I can see.

I was raised by women. My two sisters, my mom, both of my grandmothers ,strong, emotional, intuitive, selfless women who taught me how to feel deeply but move wisely. They’re the reason my emotional IQ runs high. The reason I know how to sit in silence, listen, understand, and move through life with heart.

I spend a lot of time in my own head.
Thinking about the universe. About evolution. About why some things survive and others don’t. I’m fascinated by the idea that everything around us is constantly evolving, adapting to survive, getting stronger over time. I see it in nature. I see it in people. And I see it in myself.

Maybe that’s why I’ve always had a soft spot for animals. I’ve rescued three pets, and they remind me every day what resilience looks like, how to start over, how to trust again, how to keep growing into something better.

And while my mind drifts out into the cosmos, my feet stay grounded. Fitness taught me discipline. Nature taught me peace. Long walks became my therapy. Stoic quotes became my compass. And somewhere along the way, I realized something that changed everything:

I’m the hero of my own story.

It’s on me to build, to heal, to grow, and to keep going, using my own superpowers no matter what life throws my way. Protecting my peace became non-negotiable. Nobody’s competing for my time, just my solitude.

I’m also an undercover FOB at heart. I grew up on Bollywood movies and soundtracks that made me believe in real, loud, over-the-top love. And yeah, somewhere out there, I still believe in finding the right person who matches that same energy.

But if I don’t? I’ll still be good.
Still content. Still loving myself fully, knowing I’ve already become the person I was searching for.

And if there’s one thing about me, it’s that I’m ordering dessert first.
If there’s something wild on the menu I’ve never seen before, that’s my priority. Life’s short. The mango lassi is always a yes.

Through it all, I stay optimistic.
Just like the lotus that rises through the mud.
Just like the sunflower that stands tall and shines without trying.

Always finding the silver lining.
Always reminding myself, I know there’s more ahead.

Because no matter how far I’ve come, there’s always another level to elevate to. And I’m just warming up.
