From Run Clubs to Rishtas: Why Wellness Is the New Networking

What if your next investor—or love story—was just a walk away? In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how run clubs have become the new Shaadi.com and LinkedIn for women like us.

We talk about how movement-based communities like walk clubs and run clubs are shifting how we connect, heal, and grow—especially for women of color juggling career, culture, and chronic conditions like diabetes.

From Panic to Power: Reframing High Blood Sugars with Self-Compassion

You are not a bad diabetic. You’re not broken. You’re not failing. You’re just missing the tools — and the tenderness — to navigate this journey on your own terms. In this empowering episode, I’m sharing how I went from spiraling every time my blood sugars spiked… to building daily rituals that bring me calm, confidence, and control.
