Description

👩🏽‍🚀  Today we have the honour to talk to Sheta, who was born in India and has lived across 11 cities around the world. Sheta studied aerospace engineering but decided life isn't only about studying. She attained her Harvard  Business degree,  continued in consulting, worked at Nike, founded her own female health startup in India, and is now back to consulting again. Sheta is also a certified yoga instructor and is all about health and wellness.   


🥛  We'll talk about the best kept Indian secrets to live a long and prosperous intimate life, whether arranged marriages are underrated and what she learnt about female health and wellness from running her own female wellness business in India.  


💬  Sheta's favourite self-love quote: "No person is the same: not our brains, our bodies or what we bring to the table. Everyone's unique. You are special."  


✨  #JustLikeYou is a weekly episode where we interview different types of different third culture kids who are #JustLikeYou on sex, intimacy, and how to navigate your romantic and sexual lives. If you liked this video, please give us a like and follow our channel for more content.
