Happy Dussehra & Vijayadashmi!

Happy Dussehra & Vijayadashmi!
 
As Navratri comes to an end, we honor the divine feminine energy that gives us strength and resilience, celebrate good over evil, and reflect on the courage it takes to walk your own path. 
 
As a first-generation Indian American daughter of immigrants, I didn’t always follow the “traditional” milestones that were expected of me. Choosing to leave behind a stable career path for a creative one came with doubts, pressures, and resistance. 
 
But like the stories we honor today, every battle led to a new lesson, every challenge was fuel for growth and every step taken with authenticity was a victory of its own to create something meaningful.
 
Here’s to trusting yourself, embracing your power, and to continuing the journey of turning your vision into reality.
 
Festival season doesn’t look or feel like the way it used to anymore, but I’d like to think the little me here is proud of all we’ve overcome.
