I'm Uma, I'm on a mission to wake people up to their innate well-being.

I’m a coach who helps people find real freedom from incessant worry, anxiety, panic attacks, depression and unhealthy habits. I love colourful sunsets, pistachio gelato, mangosteens, and way too much peppermint mocha creamer in my coffee.

I’ve always been curious about the human psyche. At my core, I am a seeker of truth which has led me to explore the nuances of being human. In my early twenties, I was studying psychology in college but outside of the classroom, I was intrigued with spirituality and personal growth. I also experienced feeling unworthy of love and belonging, uncomfortable in my sensitive, introverted skin, as well as bouts of anxiety, panic attacks, and OCD.

I remember immersing myself in books like A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson, The Untethered Soul by Michael Singer and A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle at Barnes & Noble, Union Square, NYC; And the works of amazing humans like Brené Brown and her TED talk on the power of vulnerability. I’ve explored self-help, silent meditation retreats, and energy healing. But none of these created a deep, lasting shift within me, until I stumbled upon this…

“You are the sky. Everything else is just the weather.”
– Pema Chödrön

We’re all fundamentally well.
Well-being is our natural, default state.

The most profound epiphany I had about life was when I stumbled upon a psychospiritual understanding of the human experience and how it makes navigating life much easier. I always felt something was missing in traditional psychology; the medical model of diagnoses and the idea that there is something ‘wrong’ with you which needs fixing didn’t resonate with me. What I uncovered was the missing link that gave me a depth of understanding in an experiential way, beyond mere textbook or conceptual knowledge.

The mainstream dialogue about mental health, although well-intentioned, is missing a fundamental understanding of how humans work! And this understanding changes everything. This is the future of psychology and mental well-being – however it’s not new. Rooted in ancient wisdom and eastern philosophy, it paves the way for real shifts in consciousness.

I envision a world in which human beings wake up to their true nature and know that everyone is inherently lovable, healthy and whole, and truly capable of change.
