How much of the life we're living is the life we actually want? And how much of it is shaped by expectations we've picked up along the way?
I've spent a good part of my life following paths that made sense on paper. I studied film at NYU, worked at the United Nations, earned a master's degree in Germany, and built a successful web design business.
I've had some wonderful adventures along the way. But I've also found myself pursuing things because they seemed like the sensible thing to do, rather than stopping to ask what I really wanted.
The older I get, the more interested I become in questioning those invisible scripts and charting a course that’s totally mine.
I wonder what becomes possible when we give ourselves permission to think differently, follow our curiosity, and listen to our own inner guidance.
And I’d like to explore on this platform, what new possibilities emerge when we question what society tells us what success should look like, what we should want, and who we're supposed to be.
More than a decade ago, I began creating guided visualizations and hosting small meditation gatherings. I loved inviting people to close their eyes, follow their imagination, and discover what emerged.
Somewhere along the way, I stepped away from that work as other responsibilities took over. But my love for imagination, storytelling, and inner exploration never really left.
Today, I’m returning to it—creating guided visualizations experiences with nature imagery and imagination, alongside writing, affirmations, and reflective prompts. For me, Fly Free is both a creative outlet and a practice I’m learning to live myself.
It’s an invitation to slow down, get curious, and imagine life on your own terms. No pressure to reinvent yourself.
Just a little space to hear yourself again.
I was born in Mumbai, grew up in New Jersey and New York, and have lived on three continents.
I speak Hindi, Gujarati, and a bit of Spanish. I picked up a little German while living in Germany for five years.
I haven’t had alcohol since 2010. I’ve been a vegetarian since I was 14.
I’ve lived in North Carolina with my husband and our five cats for 15 years. And yes, five - mama and all her kittens!
I love watching movies that have to do with starting a business or following one’s path. And I love making short abstract poetic films for fun.
After burning out from web design, I started drawing birds. I sold several art prints and framed art at a curated art show in Raleigh.
I love nature, long slow mornings, watching the rain from my hammock, learning in non-traditional ways (YouTube Academy, Podcasts, and People), and following my curiosity wherever it takes me.

I'm the creator of Fly Free, where I explore life through writing, art, and guided visualizations.
I believe we're allowed to change our minds, begin again, and create lives that don't necessarily make sense to everyone else.
I invite you to start with The Introspective Space, my free Sunday newsletter.
It’s where I share personal stories, uplifting reflections, creative explorations, and inward-facing questions that invite us to pause and listen within.
My hope is that something you encounter here helps you feel a little more peaceful, hopeful, inspired, or connected to yourself. That’s my intention.
