Kia ora & Namaste,

I’m Roshni - and I love food, connection and holistic approaches to wellness. I educate, inspire and empower the people I work with using nutrition and holistic lifestyle changes as a roadmap for vibrant, thriving health and balance.

I am a foodie! I was born in Lancashire, England to a Kenyan Indian father and Indian mother. When I was 4 we moved to Waiuku, rural Tamaki Makaurau where my parents started a supermarket and bakery in an old dressmaking factory. Growing up amongst such a diverse spectrum of food and people, I got to visit market gardens, organic and biodynamic farms and bid on fresh produce at the Turners and Growers Fresh Produce auctions. My siblings and I worked alongside our dad baking pastries, breads and beautiful organic Sourdoughs in the bakery as well as stacking shelves with instant and packaged foods as well. They are foods that don’t nourish us but typify the majority of the foods that are readily available to us. My Grandma also lived with us so we really were immersed in deliciousness from a very early age. We spent a lot of time chopping, stirring, grinding Indian spice mixes and helping my Grandma cook the family meals. Cooking and sharing food is a massive part of my heritage and my love for preserving the foods of our ancestors to keep their food traditions alive is a huge inspiration for me.

My mission is to help others using nutrition, lifestyle changes, mindfulness and embodiment tools to overcome health and life challenges, experience more joy, purpose and to live more creatively in the world.

Like so many migrants, my journey is at the intersection of East and West. I am so passionate about traditional food preparation methods, indigenous models of health and the importance of celebrating the ancient wisdom held here in Aotearoa as well as in our own lineages.

I am a mother of two children and love to garden, cook, practise yoga, mountain bike, hike, ski and did I say eat? with my whanau and friends.
