Receive Text UpdatesHealth & fit. have mattered to me since I was young. Growing up in an Indian household, diabetes and heart disease were common diagnoses, and I was determined not to become a statistic. Seven years ago, just days after learning my second child was on the way, I was diagnosed with a head tumor. In that moment, I chose to control what I could, my health.That choice gave me the strength and purpose to show up for myself most importantly, and for my family, my community, and others I hope to inspire
What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?I train with purpose and variety. Strength training is my foundation, mixed with kickboxing and conditioning to stay athletic and sharp. I start most days with morning cardio, meditate daily, and use the sauna and cold plunge a minimum of twice a week to recover and reset. Training hard, recovering smart, and staying mentally locked in is what keeps me energized.
What would you do with $20,000?would put whatevers left over after taxes into my kids 529 saving account. Maybe a good steak dinner on the coast if there is any left lol. Too many taxes in CA
