Heal at the Root-Cause
& Watch Your Life Change
Your exhaustion is real.
Your overwhelm is real.
Your burnout is real.
Don't ever feel guilty about needing breaks from a world that was never set up to protect your emotional health in the first place.
I believe life is always inviting us to grow
How my coaching works
- We begin to understand your mindset, unconscious patterns, dynamics, and limiting beliefs that may be inadvertently steering your life (the actual drivers of your life)
- We review frameworks, tools, and practices to regulate your emotions in the long run and in the moment of triggers (panic, stress, anxiety)
- We begin to meet the Higher You that has been with us all along, get to know their passions, truths, and purpose
- We ensure that with all these seeds of awareness and mindfulness that they are planted and cultivated in a healthy body with health promoting practices
- And then, from the inside, we begin to work towards the outside, to clean up relationships with coworkers, family, friends, etc.
Believe it or not, a lot of what we face as adults, is just our past repeating itself, that's why I use
- Inner Child Healing & Reparenting
- Parts Work (Building the Relationship with your Self)
- Imago Theory (Safe Conversations & Non Violent Communication)
- Synchronizing Your Body with Nature, Using Ayurveda, an Ancient Indian Medicinal System
- And practices to encourage your inspiration, essence, higher self to begin taking the lead on your precious life
CLIENT LOVE
Working with Rupa is very insightful, healing, transforming and making me feel at peace. I reached out to Rupa because I knew I had unfinished business with my inner child wound (don’t we all? Lol) that kept showing up as trigger in my relationship with people close to me. I knew I needed to go deeper to the root-cause and the healing process. My transformation: From being super defensive, to slowly calming down. From having some anger towards my past to being more accepting and letting go. Rupa’s approach is full of love – she is very understanding, very loving, very calming , which makes you open up easily. Thanks Rupa for bringing healing and peace into my life 💜”
Maura Makarim, Self-Love & Purpose Coach, March 2023
I am very thankful to have been introduced to Rupa. I was searching for a natural and holistic approach to dealing with the mental and physical burnout that often comes with having a busy remote work schedule. In working with Rupa, I was able to redefine a lifestyle that had me feeling more balanced across both mind and body. The diet plan in particular was very helpful in finding natural energy alternatives and pacifying food blends that decreased inflammation in both my stomach and face.
I also found that incorporating stillness and meditation into my routine in the very beginning of my day, set the tone for how I would let stress impact my decision making and productivity. Rupa is a passionate professional who guides with compassion and attentiveness to getting results. I would recommend Rupa for anyone looking at Ayurvedic treatment.”

CLIENT LOVE
Working with Rupa has been a magical rollercoaster ride. She held a very safe, brave, and compassionate space for me to unlearn, relearn, and rise from the ashes of despair in my romantic pursuit. She does her magic by going deep into your subconscious and limiting beliefs about love, starting from the self to then to other people.
Without Rupa’s help, I wouldn’t be in the place of self-love that I hold today, which I also inscribed as a tattoo in my left arm. Her impact will be life-long for me and I highly recommend her magic potion for anyone who’s looking to feel and attract love.”
Jourdan, Entrepreneur & Coach, Indonesia, August 2021
Working with Rupa was the single best thing I have experienced for my mental health. She challenged me to dig deeply into my patterns and beliefs, and encouraged me, constructively, to be a great version of myself. Friends and family have noted I sound much lighter and free overall, which I attribute to my sessions with Rupa.
It was like having a best friend with zero strings attached – a no-judgment, no-expectation, safe place for me to talk about my innermost desires and worries and make sense of them. I cannot say enough good things about Rupa and her coaching.
She is kind, caring, analytical, and smart. I think of her all of the time and would recommend her to anyone.”

Rupa’s dedication to bringing not just basic healthcare access, but also vitality and radiance to all is seen throughout both her corporate and ayurvedic life coaching career.
Rupa has spent over 15 years working as a healthcare consultant and medical device marketer, working in over 20 countries on efforts such as bringing hospital supplies to Haitian hospitals, new cardiovascular services in Ghana, to patient financing options in the Philippines.

Rupa has coached over 70+ individuals and couples through both their personal and working relationships, as a vehicle for her clients’ own spiritual growth.
Rupa is especially passionate about coaching South East Asian individuals to learn the healthy relational, communication, and emotional processing tools that typically were overlooked and not taught to them during childhood, due to differences in generational priorities.
CLIENT LOVE
“Working with Rupa has truly been a life-changing experience, and I am so grateful to have gotten the opportunity to work with her! I’ve struggled with self-doubt, fear of failure, and managing boundaries my entire life, and I finally feel like I’ve not only started to understand the root causes of these issues but also feel Rupa is helping me build a realistic and active plan to address all of them. Rupa’s comforting style, her focus on accountability, as well as her ability to incorporate both physical and mental well-being into every session truly differentiate her from the rest. I would highly recommend working with her and can’t thank her enough for helping me lay the groundwork to being the best version of myself!”
Anonymous, Corporate Executive, Indian Descent, Sept 2021
Rupa is an amazing and a truly welcoming professional. She has the capacity to hold space for you to find out what remains unknown or forgotten within you. Rupa finds the right words to express exactly what you are thinking, as if she could read in between all the emotions and sensations unfolding within you. That has helped me to reframe many of my internal dialogues with more empowering statements.
With Rupa I am able to create a space that feels safe to explore, discover, observe, release and ultimately grow. With Rupa I feel welcomed, supported, and ready to build a more fulfilling life. A life that is truly aligned to my core values, and speaks from a place of authenticity and love.
Rupa also provides wonderful metaphors and explanations that help me deal with my fears, wounds, or misperceptions. With her I feel calm, centered, open, and ready to go deep into all sorts of emotions. It is like having a conversation with an incredibly wise woman.
Her attention to detail is unparalleled, and her capacity to listen is astonishing. She does that with all her senses. She is a real professional with a great gift for coaching. I am incredibly grateful to have come across Rupa in my life and in personal coaching experience”

Wait? What is Ayurveda?
Ayurveda is a system of holistic healing unlike any other, getting its roots from India, over 5000 years ago.
Ayurveda translates to the the study of life or the study of longevity. At its core, Ayurveda is a holistic tradition and philosophy of life.
Ayurveda believes everything in nature is made of the same 5 elemental building blocks and that each person has a unique combination of these elements.
Did you know? Based on your unique constitution of these 5 elements, you have a unique physiology, likes, dislikes, tendencies, habits, mental and emotional character, and vulnerabilities toward imbalance and disease. And there are unique routines, foods, and exercises that Ayurveda recommends you do to achieve balance.
Integrating Ayurveda into your life can help with feeling overall wellness as well as being proactive about your health as it relates to immunity, digestion, disease prevention, energy, vitality, beauty and sleep.
With simple swaps, additions, and eliminations in your routine, Ayurveda can make a lasting impact in your long term health.
As a certified and clinically trained Ayurvedic Practitioner, I will guide you on how to unlock the wisdom of Ayurveda for your unique body.
Why kick things off in December?
Just like a good day starts with a well-prepared night, a strong start to 2024 begins with intention and action in advance.

The Guiding Principles of this Program
- Inner World Coaching: Release and shift any old beliefs, identities, self-defeating mindsets, fears that may be protecting you but holding you back from the life you want to create
- Habit Psychology: Understand and use habit psychology and systems as explained by the experts, such as James Clear in Atomic Habits, or the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey
- Synching with Nature: Humans were meant to live in synch with nature (as we are nature ourselves). Reconnect with your inner nature & wisdom using the ancient healing Indian science of Ayurveda, a 5000 year old medicinal science that views the mind, body, soul, and nature as a synchronized system
- Community: (the most important if you ask me) We often are a function of the people we surround ourself with, and sometimes our habits and therefore our life reflects the mindsets, thoughts, and beliefs of the people we spend the most time with. To break out of these dynamics, we need to surround ourself with like-minded people working through the same blocks (we learn a lot by observing and seeing ourselves in others) who are on the same trajectory as you seek to be.
- Accountability: This is it. Invest in yourself like you really mean it. Be held accountable by me and others and ultimately to yourself. Learn to trust your own word and unleash the person you know you were always meant to be.
