fter dedicating years to her role as an assistant manager at an NGO in Pune, Anita, a 52-year-old with a master's in social service, decided it was time to prioritize her own desires. In 2020, she left her job with the intention of joining her son in Canada, but the pandemic disrupted her plans.

For Anita, the platform became a source of energy and companionship, providing a space to learn, connect, and share. One class that stood out for her was Dr. Divya S.'s, which she found psychologically enriching.
