WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival is one of the most well-respected and high-quality events of its kind in the world. Getting a nomination in this prestigious film festival is an achievement in itself!

STEP 1: MAKE MOVIE
In 2020 we took a chance and said lights, camera, action!

STEP 2: SUIT UP
Now in 2022 it's show time, so let's get set to pawty!!

STEP 3: WIN AWARD
We're stoked to announce that 'The Tails of Boo-Boo & Cuddly Poo' was bestowed the 'Honorable Jury Mention' Award at the '12th Dada Saheb Phalke Film Festival-22' which just took place in New Delhi NCR, India.

A massive congratulations to all the unsung heroes who contributed to make this movie into a movement!

In the summer of 2020 I read a post about 'how to take full advantage of the time when you are single' and I realised that although I knew what I wished from a partner, I had never really asked myself 'what are the gifts that I would bring to the relationship'.

It then dawned on me that for a long time (a decade in the making) I had been sabotaging myself by playing the role of a tormented artist who drowned his sorrows at the bottom of a bottle as he lamented about his unrequited love. I realised that I was destroying my self esteem by limiting my belief, drawing comparision, making assumptions, making excuses, being afraid and having people around me who didn't support my dreams.

I needed to stop searching for 'the one' and start working on investing in myself. I needed to stop complaining. I needed to stop being desperate.

It was finally time for a change in lifestyle; And now, two summers later, I feel the need to share a bit about my continuing journey of self discovery and also express my gratitude to the professionals that helped me get here, because frankly it's overdue.

Thank you for always listening and never judging and for enhancing my empathy and reducing my aggression;

Thank you .shukla.coaching for never giving up on me and for pushing me to make wiser choices about what I put into my body;

Thank you for paving the way for me to build my strength and stamina.

Today, although I have a long way to go with my mental, physical, spiritual and definitely emotional health (because I often behave like a petulant child since it comes with the profession wherein we play make belief), I have the clarity of mind to know that as my self worth grows, it acts as a magnet to attract the right kind of people in my life and when I'm ready, I will meet 'the one'!
