Sharing stories, experiences and ideas
I have been speaking at events for more than 30 years, sharing stories from my own journey and experiences.
It started when I was 19, when a local cooperative bank in India invited me to speak to women and inspire them to start their own businesses. Over the years, I had many opportunities to share stories and inspirational talks in India.
After moving to New Zealand, my first opportunity was to share my “Mumbai to Auckland” journey as an artist. It was very well received and opened the door to many more speaking opportunities.
Since then, I have spoken on a range of subjects including wellness in everyday life, entrepreneurship, creativity, culture and inspiration. I also bring a little of my homeland to New Zealand through my love and knowledge of wellness.
Every talk is tailored to the audience, with real stories, practical ideas and a warm, cheerful approach that makes people feel connected and inspired.
