Sometimes, recognition arrives quietly. A simple message. An unexpected reach-out. A “we’d love to feature you” that makes you pause, reread, and smile in disbelief. I shared my profile with gratitude and curiosity and then came a moment I never imagined - being featured by the @thewomenpreneurind @ceoindiaweekly as one of the Top 100 Inspiring Women Entrepreneurs of India. Women who are creating impact, breaking glass ceilings, rewriting narratives, and inspiring change every single day. To be recognised for my work in health, wellness, fitness and sport - a space that is not just my profession but my purpose - it feels deeply personal. And to be featured alongside women I’ve long admired, women whose journeys many of us already know and respect, leaves me humbled beyond words. The awards were held in Bombay on the 6th of December. And while my heart was grateful for the invitation, my feet were somewhere else - running an ultra @thehellrace in the desert of Jaisalmer. Miles away, under a relentless sun, chasing a different kind of finish line. I couldn’t be there in person but in many ways, I was exactly where I was meant to be. Because this recognition isn’t just about a stage, a trophy, or a photograph. It’s about the journey. The early mornings. The risks taken. The doubts faced. The belief held onto when the path felt uncertain. It’s about choosing purpose over comfort, grit over glamour, and showing up over and over again, for the life you believe in. Being part of a platform like the Womenenpreneur India reminds me that when women rise with intention, they don’t just build businesses - they build movements, communities, and change. I stand here filled with awe, gratitude, and humiliy, reminded that when you stay true to your work and your why, the universe always finds a way to surprise you. Ending this year on such a high feels nothing short of a blessing. Grateful. Grounded. Inspired. And ready for everything that lies ahead.

To more last-minute trips, airport runs, board game fights, scrabble battles, negotiating dessert portions, “eat less carbs” lectures, and discussing which one of us is sleeping with which four-legged baby tonight. Life with you has never been boring. Thank you for being my constant in your own unique way. For always pushing me to do better - even if your version of motivation is casually saying “it’s only 42.2” before a marathon like I’m just stepping out for a walk around the block 🙈 You have this strange ability to make difficult things feel possible. To ground me without holding me back.
To let me be completely myself while still standing solidly beside me through everything. I’ve grown so much as a person with you around not because you tried to change me, but because you respected me enough to let me evolve into whoever I wanted to become. And honestly, I think that’s rare ❤️ Here’s to more spontaneous adventures, more shared sunsets in random parts of the world, more game nights, more laughter, more wine, more silly fights over chocolates and carbs, more dog cuddles, and more memories we’ll probably laugh about years later. Happy Birthday, Rish @ace__rishi 
Wishing you the absolute best in every way, always. Would still choose you. Every single time

Thank you for this honour @p.c.chandrajewellers @feverfmofficial I truly believe that courage doesn’t always look like big, bold step - it’s often in the quiet decision to keep going. This recognition belongs as much to the people who’ve supported and believed in me as it does to me and I’m deeply grateful.

Proof that the best breakfasts are the ones you run for. Kicked off @boyamalcha breakfast with @runwithreeti and it was everything- vibrant, indulgent, and so worth the effort. Great food, even better company, and the perfect end to a long run morning. @chef_augusto @chefaugustocabrera_official nailed it. Already planning a comeback.
