Meet transformational coach, Kusum as she shares her journey from engineer to travel blogger turned life coach and conscious leader.

We dive deep into the shift from masculine energy aka discipline to feminine devotion and why shadow work is essential for true inner freedom. Kusum unpacks how 95% of our thoughts stem from subconscious patterns, why universal advice only becomes powerful when it's embodied, and how women can release guilt when choosing themselves.

We explore parenting, the myth of balance, and how to raise emotionally attuned children who speak their truth. If you're navigating self-doubt, seeking soul-aligned success, or simply tired of trying to figure it all out alone—this episode is your permission slip to ask for help, move with integrity, and come home to who you truly are.
