I am not who I thought I would be at 32. And that turns out to be the best thing that ever happened to me.
At 32, I made a decision that made no sense on paper. I went back to college. Not for a quick certification. For a full architecture degree. Because I needed to learn how to understand the spaces that make us feel human.
That decision cost me financial independence. It cost me the comfort of a salary, a title, a clear answer to "so what do you do?" It also gave me everything I am building today.
This is what my life looks like right now — honestly:
I am a full time architecture student, a brand founder, a poet, and a writer who is figuring out money, independence, and intentional living completely out loud.
I founded Muscaria — a handcrafted soap brand that I built from zero, as a student, with no income, by partnering with skilled women who bring the craft to life. It is small. It is real. It is mine.
I wrote 21 raw poems at the edge of a breakdown — a collection called Life at 32 Feels So Challenging: 21 Raw Poems from the Edge of Survival— available on Kindle and Pothi. It is the most honest thing I have ever made.
I am working on my first full length book. Something about money, rebuilding, and what nobody tells Indian women about financial independence.
And I run this space — Loved and Found — where I write about all of it. Architecture. Money. Slow living. Manifestation. The interior design of a life that almost fell apart.
What you will find here:
This is not a polished lifestyle blog. It is a real journal from someone in the middle of the journey — not looking back from the finish line.
I write about money because I am learning it in real time. I write about architecture because it teaches me how structure creates feeling. I write about slow living because I refuse to rush through a life I fought hard to build. I write about manifestation because I have lived proof that what you believe shapes what you build.
If you are also somewhere in the middle — rebuilding, starting over, starting late, figuring it out — you are in the right place.
