Here’s what people say about us...
Rupa's passion to found MINDKSHETRA stems from the personal motivation of being a first-generation Australian of Indian descent and from being a parent raising two young Bicultural adults. She views parenting as a great privilege and an opportunity to influence young humans. Along the journey of being a parent, she found herself in a unique position of unlearning intergenerational conditioning that was bound to childhood insecurities and learning culturally sensitive parenting strategies that equip her to be a conscious parent. She is deeply committed to helping young adults build a robust sense of self and supporting parents in mindful, holistic parenting.
Her inspiration to create a wellness studio comes from growing up in a culture where a vocabulary for mental health is elusive, and the appetite to have conversations about mental health is mostly non-existent. However, on the other hand, it is a culture with rich art practices and holistic healing approaches.
Rupa noticed an opportunity to spread mental health awareness within multicultural communities using creative intelligence and engagement in cultural art practices. She believes that tuning into creativity is the key, and developing proactive wellness strategies is the antidote to normalising conversations about mental health. In recognition of her work, Rupa was featured in 2021's Top 50 Small Business Leaders by the inside small business magazine and was a finalist for Western Sydney Women in Performing Arts (2021).
