Riya Baria ☀️ — Co-Founder

My journey started with being tired of living as per the norms, trying to fit in, failing miserably, and questioning if I had it in me to keep going. Soon I realised the problem wasn't with me, I had just accepted everything that was told to me innocently without being aware of what's right/ wrong for me. As a 15-year-old, you're hardly taught about thinking independently or living authentically. Especially in India, where the culture is deeply rooted in financial security. Everyone wants to secure good marks, then a good college, and then hopefully a good placement. These seemingly good checkpoints often derail us from uncovering our true nature, figuring out what we were born to do, or living anything closer to our potential. I was that confused & scared teenager who somehow managed to survive through the chaos of following the conventional route, refusing to believe that's how the rest of my life would look like- slow, dull & boring. It led me to go deeper into finding more meaning & purpose in life & change everything around me within months. After years of experimentation & sheer will to build a life that fulfills me, I've come to understand- it's all within me. All that happiness, abundance & security is within my control, & I won't have it through following others. I need to follow what's special/ unique about me. I need to get closer to what my soul yearns to bring to this world. To cut it short (I'll try doing that), I'm bullish on human potential, I want every single person who comes across my content to have enough belief in themselves to change the course of their lives. Who am I to help you with that? Professionally, I've had the chance to work and learn from some of the best people in their industry, like Shreya Pattar, Ankur Warikoo & Niharikaa Kaur Sodhi. Personally, I keep educating myself on topics like consciousness, creativity & community (i.e. service & money), which I think drive the force in every human to create a life full of impact. Life has been nothing short of a beautiful adventure that I keep looking forward to since this change, & my sincere hope is that you get to live the same way. You don't need to struggle/ work 16 hrs a day/ give up on your hobbies/ spend less time with your loved ones to live a good life. All you need to do is realise you're far more capable than what's being told to you and be rebellious enough to step towards YOUR INDIVIDUAL TRUTH every single day, & I'm going to help you achieve that with every fibre of my being.
