24: Nilima - A Bumpy Road to Becoming a Soaring Butterfly

The Indian American Experience Podcast

Nilima, who calls herself an ex-people-pleaser, identifies herself now as a Brown Butterfly. She grew up in Maryland in the 70s as 'the brown girl' in her school and experienced the unsavory implications of that. Fast forward several decades, Nilima has made it her mission empowering women like her. She's a certified Health & Wellness coach who thrives when she's running her ‘Reset’ retreats or online virtual stage where she provides transformative coaching experiences, fostering personal growth and enhancing communication skills.
It’s one of the most inspirational episodes yet, as Nilima eloquently urges us to live life to its fullest, not holding back our gifts and our aspirations. Having lived up to that ideal herself, she inspires confidence in her words.
Nilima also shares her thoughts and feelings about being the steward of her Indian American heritage and shares how she hopes to add to the cultural education of her grandchildren as well.
