Introduction to Darsh and the Podcast Journey

00:00:00
Speaker
Hello, my beautiful people. Welcome to the She's Next Level podcast. I'm your girl, Darsh, and I'm so excited to finally, finally, finally, finally start sharing more of my life and my experiences with you guys.
00:00:14
Speaker
I have been on self-discovery journey for like the last nine, yeah, nine years, and I've had my spiritual awakening back in 2020, twenty twenty And ever since it's just been a continuous, like nonstop evolution, I've always had this desire to like keep expanding myself and like seeing what I'm capable of and just keep growing and growing. So I created this podcast to take you guys on this journey of life with me and to empower you along the way.
00:00:45
Speaker
So a quick backstory of my life thus far. I grew up in California and from a conservative South Asian household, my parents were super strict, which had led me to becoming a rebel and breaking all the fucking rules, which I still do to this day.
00:01:03
Speaker
um And at the age of 19, I moved out of my parents from California to New York City. Guys, without a game plan, without any family, like literally I was just so mesmerized by the city. And all I had was a desire to live my best life. Like I didn't know what I was going to I had no desire to go to college and i was just in love with the city.

Career Path and Business Ventures

00:01:25
Speaker
And while I was there, i actually ended up working in the nightlife industry And ever since then, i have tapped into several different businesses, um including network marketing, real estate, dropshipping, e-commerce, and also Stretchmark and Scar Tattooing, which is actually the business I've closed down recently to pursue podcasting and building my personal brand.
00:01:49
Speaker
And it's fucking scary, to be honest. Like, I'm still... going through the motions of that transition. And we can talk about that like in another episode. um I don't really want to dive deep into that right now.

Personal Healing and Growth

00:02:02
Speaker
So during COVID, I had fled down to Miami from New York and ended up living there for a couple of months until I realized that like I am lost. I don't know what I'm doing. Like I have no family. i have nothing. I felt like I was like struggling once again.
00:02:18
Speaker
and so I ended up moving back in with my parents and I have been here ever since. It's been about like a good four years or so, like three or four years. And I have had the most healing that I have had in this time than I've ever had in my entire journey, which every part of my journey is perfect. But like it's been like wild. I've officially like healed my relationship with my parents already.
00:02:43
Speaker
a lot more than it ever was before and I'm happy to talk about that in another episode. There's just been a lot of healing around self-image, which self-image is really just how you perceive yourself and how you feel like others perceive you.
00:02:58
Speaker
There's just been a lot of like work around that and I'm working on mastering that in like a whole new level. But ultimately, life has been a fun little roller

Empowerment and Life Philosophy

00:03:08
Speaker
coaster ride. And I can say that even though I didn't go to college and I lived my life very unconventionally and I plan to do so, I've learned so much about the game of life through like the experiences in my life. And I'm dedicated to really help women realize like how powerful they are in creating the life that they actually love.
00:03:29
Speaker
like actually loving your life and creating it the way that you want it to be and really thinking for themselves. I feel like there's just so much distraction out there in the world and that can, you know, defer us from creating the life that we actually want and feeling whole and fully feeling fulfilled and feeling happy.
00:03:49
Speaker
And I just wanna empower women to like really break free and step into their joy and their desires because that's honestly the key to life. And I'm realizing this more day by day from having to be on the other side of my lessons that I'm literally just done doing things out of obligation.
00:04:08
Speaker
and rather desire and i'm willing to stretch myself because there's just so much to experience in this life that we have access to so it's like why the fuck not claim it um so anyways that's my main intention for this podcast to really like make healing fun it doesn't have to be this like heavy like work type of thing i feel like that's how i've always preferred it and like i've always been like finding ways to like make things more better or like improving the way that things can just be integrated into your life to like really help, you know, healing and like,
00:04:47
Speaker
and just living your life in a more empowered way, just more fun, really deciding who you want to be and how you want to live your life. And it's very like specific to each person, you know, we're all different.
00:05:00
Speaker
We're all special. We're all unique. There's so much more that I want to like share and expand about my life and like my ideas and my perspective, because life really gets to be limitless for us. Like,
00:05:13
Speaker
i'm still like i still have my own aha moments and like mind blown about like how guided we are how loved we are and like how capable we are as i continue to evolve and grow myself and i really do feel like nothing is impossible like you literally get to have it all and create it all and like have a balanced beautiful life and like that's my main main intention for my life and I'm always going to do my best, right? Like nothing is perfect. I still have like my moments and stuff like that, but just like aiming to strive towards that is already like enough.

Reflections on New York and Future Plans

00:05:55
Speaker
I've been through so, so, so much that I can't even remember half of my life because I've had so many experiences while I lived in New York. New York was a big fucking teacher for me. I've learned so much since I was there. And I honestly love New York. Like, New York is always going to have a piece of my heart, um no matter where I live.
00:06:15
Speaker
ah But it's, it's been such a be honor to be able to you know, experience that for myself firsthand at such a young age and like really grow through life and all the challenges I've had and all the beautiful blessings I've had as well.
00:06:34
Speaker
So anyways, I don't want to make this episode like 20,000 hours long. This is simply an intro and a little bit of a story of who I am and what I'm here to do. I will be dropping an episode every Thursday and that's gonna be a fun little challenge for myself since I'm all in baby.
