My Family History
I was born in an Indian working class family, and my parents were both school teachers, now retired. My parents valued Education. I grew up with this Moto – Knowlege is Power.
I am very proud of my Indian heritage. I could speak a few different languages, eat different food, wear different clothes and enjoy the best of both worlds. However, I always felt I did not fit into the Indian society because I was not Indian enough and I did not belong in western society either.
My Journey
I grew up with very low self-esteem. When you have other children and school teachers laughing at you, calling you names like, stupid, dumb, useless and lazy it is very hard to feel good about yourself.
For some reason, I identified my self-worth based on how well I could read, write and spell, when I was an A+ student in Maths, Science and anything that did not require reading and writing. After finishing school, I took the simple road of Studying Accounting and Economics at University instead of what I wanted to do.
This self-doubt and self-limiting belief, I carried with me to my working life and my adult life to an extent where I identified myself as a broken person because of my Dyslexia. I let depression and negative emotions rule my life and stop me from living to my true potential and see my inner beauty and be my authentic self. It was not until I went on a solo trip ten years ago, where the penny dropped. I can act like a victim, or I can take responsibility for my life. From Solo travel, I started to discover my self and my business ” Traveling with Me, Myself and I” was born.
