Namaste From Ananya (NFA) is a space celebrating diversity. This is the guide and the permission I wished I had had to embrace often opposing qualities that we so often are told don’t mix: such as science & spirituality and being British & Indian. NFA is a celebration of all that we are and all that we want to be through intuitive actions and mindful inclusivity.

You can reach out to us on Instagram:
You’ve made the goal
You’re taking action towards it
Opportunities that you weren’t expecting are coming about
What do you do?
Do you block them?
Or is there a different way?
This episode explores how we might not be ready for what we truly need and why that’s a good thing.
This week’s episode applies to all of us in some shape or form
You’ve reached the goal and yet part of you doesn’t quite believe you’re worthy of it?
You’ve realised it wasn’t ever about the '“big, shiny” goal
You’ve realised it was about something small instead
Whether you’re a beginner or well-versed in using your intuition, it’s always insightful to hear how other people use theirs while travelling.
Right?
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt held back:
From trusting their intuition because it “doesn’t make sense!”
From taking action because they’re worried about external judgement
So you’re stuck in overthinking mode, worried about ALL the different possibilities
In this episode, I talk about:
The importance of trusting your intuitive nudges — even when it doesn’t make sense to you / other people!
Not letting other people’s throwaway comments define the actions you take
The nuances that come with navigating cultural conditioning and what you can do to cultivate your own intuition
My own experiences with how I navigated these exact situations and how I continue to do so
"I made a list of qualities I wanted in a partner & then let it go"
Welcome back! This episode is for anyone needing that reminder of the power of setting clear intentions for yourself!
Join me as I discuss:
What led me to write out a list of qualities I want in a partner
Share what that practically meant and the steps you can take too
The standards and boundaries I had to get clear on
How I actively let the list go….only to rediscover it later!
This episode is for you if you need reminding:
That it’s important to get clear on what you want and just how powerful it can be
That it’s okay to improve your boundaries and standards for yourself
On the importance of taking action that feels right for YOU, for the right reasons
I’m so excited to bring to you the very first interview of the podcast. I loved speaking with Simona, founder of HubDot.
We discuss:
The power of storytelling
Following the intuitive nudges when starting something
What happens when we lose touch with our intuition
How to reconnect back with our intuition
The power of embracing our authenticity
Being anti-racist as a founder and owning our voices
Periods of growth and evolution
The importance of continuously evolving and moving through different identities
If you’ve ever:
Thought: “I don’t have a story worth telling” - think again!
Felt defined by your labels: corporate or otherwise
Wanted to explore ways to “network” but in a way that feels good
This episode is for you!
As Simona mentioned: you can check out HubDot’s upcoming event on the 11th October 2022 at Kindred, Hammersmith & Fulham, London. You can buy tickets here.
I’d love to hear what resonated with you from our conversation!
