What is your wellness philosophy?
My wellness philosophy is recharging daily with a good night's sleep of 8 hours and an iron-clad morning daily ritual of starting my day with 50 minutes of yoga & pranayama, followed by a 5-minute meditation. Once I have this out of the way, I am ready for my day.
Your success mantra?
Don't react to things. Be in control of your emotions.
A lesson you learned from making a mistake?
Hire slow, fire fast. Listen to your gut.
Any piece of advice for all the women out there?
Get a seat on the table. Be a decision-maker whether it is in your household, or in the business world. Be financially independent, as it leads to a greater freedom & better life choice.
What has been your biggest pride as a doyenne?
My biggest pride has been to have created 2 businesses from scratch. Also, to have the courage to run towards my fears. Courage is like a muscle, the more we push ourselves, the more we realize we have the infinite abilities within us.
