Let’s Talk Soulnal

From the moment I stepped into Sparq Spaces, ( I was given a tour by her co-work partner Dev who himself was a vibe of his own ) I knew I had found the place to bring my podcast vision to life. Nestled right in the heart of Sukhumvit, this hidden gem was everything I didn’t even know I was looking for - creative, grounded, and flowing with the kind of energy that feels like home.In this episode, I sit down with Kirty, the warm, visionary force behind Sparq Spaces - a multi-functional, full-service content studio designed with intention and heart. Though we only just met, it felt like an instant vibe with my running curiosity of wanting to know more. Kirty's journey spans over 15 years in photography, graphic design, and brand-building - from newborn shoots to cinematic weddings and now, this dynamic creative studio.What began as her dream to have a dedicated space for her work evolved into something much bigger, a haven for content creators, brands, photographers, and dreamers alike. From cyclorama walls and green screens to dressing rooms and gritty textured sets, Sparq Spaces offers a professional setup that’s still personal and deeply soulful.In our conversation, we explore:The inspiration behind creating Sparq SpacesHer personal story from 9-to-5 burnout to creative entrepreneurWhat it means to build something that didn’t exist in BangkokWhy emotional presence matters more than the perfect photoKirty doesn’t just provide a space, she offers an experience. And if you know me, you know that energy matters, and this place? It holds a vibe I couldn’t walk away from. I visited 8 - 12 locations before this, but the moment I stepped into Sparq, I knew this was it.So if you're a content creator, a brand builder, or someone looking for a space that breathes creativity, tune in. This one is full of heart, hustle, and humble beginnings.

A Father’s Day Tribute to the One I Lost and the One Who Stepped In.I didn’t plan to share this story which i do at the end and probably it was meant to be with how desperate my search of GOD was and wanting to be SAFE. But some truths ask to be spoken not because they’re dramatic, but because they’re real. Years ago, I watched my father take his last breath. We couldn’t even finish screaming the word “doctor.” Just like that… he was gone. And in that raw moment of loss, I turned to my brother, hugged him tight, and whispered, “ I need you to be my father hereon and to step into his space. I need to feel safe. ” That was the day I understood something sacred: That fatherhood isn’t only about the man who raised you… It’s also about the presence that holds you when you’re most unheld.Fast forward to my 50th birthday - a milestone I had long dreamed of.I had countdowns, visions, and childlike excitement. I wanted to mark it with purpose and presence. But just before that big day, a coaching session cracked something wide open.It ended with this: “You are nobody.”I’ve heard that in spiritual circles before. I’ve said “I am not the body” in Satsangs. But that day, those words didn’t feel peaceful. They felt hollow.Because deep down, a part of me still wanted to be somebody. To be good. To be loved. To be enough.In Singapore, my family, all of them lovingly gifted me an iPad. While choosing it at Marina Bay Sands, I was invited into a short class at apple. And like the youngest sibling I am, I agreed... still used to going along with what’s expected. But in that moment, surrounded by tech and strangers and birthday messages, I was suddenly back in a classroom I couldn’t understand. Back to the little girl who felt slow, confused, less-than. It triggered a migraine. But it also unlocked a memory. A part of my story that needed light. Afterwards, moments alone after the big celebration... I sat in silence and tears on my pillow realised, “This is what happens. The now wakes up the then.”That stayed with me. Like a quiet truth wrapped in compassion. Since then, I’ve stopped asking “Why me?”And started saying “Show me.”This episode of Release with Soulnal - recorded in April was always meant to come out now.In June. For Father’s Day. Because this is more than a podcast. It’s a tribute. To the man who raised me. To the brother who held me. To the soul I’ve become through both grief and grace. I’ve learned that surrender doesn’t make you smaller.It opens the door to something greater - presence.When I finally let go of needing to be somebody, I remembered who I truly am. In Paris, I stood before the MonaLisa painting in awe and danced in the streets. Not as a wife. Not as a mother. Not as a coach. But just as me. Curious. Present. Free. And maybe that’s what healing really is. Not becoming someone new. But remembering the someone you’ve always been. From “Why me?” to “Show me,”This episode is my release — a remembrance that we’re not here to be somebody in the world’s eyes, but to remember who we are in the soul’s light.Ps. I misspoke "Muslims are not allowed in the mosque" instead of non muslim . My bad.Also correction... it was a 2nd degree burn leaning towards 3rd degree.Also promised to share the talk I was invited to regarding LIGHT LANGUAGE : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vtP7Kjhcib0&list=PLdLLd4ptki5VpGujvEcy6HTDeQZH8d_ld&index=7&t=20s

This week on Real-Ease with Soulnal, I’m in conversation with someone who might just be the human version of “tab overload” and I mean that in the best way.Manish Sethii - high school entrepreneur, glass-rescuing changemaker, mindful meditator, occasional event guy, and the unofficial IB student whisperer - joins me for a chat that covers everything from why he started so early to how he’s still figuring it all out.We dive into self-healing, pranic healing and meditation, trusting too quickly (yes, even tech), business coaching, life coaching, and the beauty of not always knowing the end goal but showing up anyway. Oh, and why your Apple screen time report might be your biggest frenemy.He’s wise beyond his years, humble about his hustle, and the kind of person you want your kids to hang around (or at least intern with). He’s not trying to impress though, he’s trying to impact. A conversation with Manish Sethii on self-work, service, and staying real. Tune in and see why I’ve genuinely looked up to this young man over the past year and why you might too.

Welcome to this episode of Real Ease with Soulnal, where I share my Journey.People always ask, “How did you become a healer?” Well, let’s rewind.Born in Singapore, raised in Okinawa—where I went to an American school (not British, despite what my nervous brain blurted out in this episode). Life was all fun and games—literally. Then came Singapore’s school system, where fun went to die. Let’s just say… the adjustment did not go smoothly.In my Indian (Sindhi) family, resilience wasn’t just encouraged—it was mandatory. Two older sisters, and an older brother, and somehow, I got labeled the black sheep. But looking back? I wasn’t a black sheep. I was a lion who refused to be herded. They say the youngest is a brat, I feel I came to heal the generational trauma of this family, lol.Then came marriage. Arranged, of course. I told my dad, “I don’t think I’m marriage material.” He blinked. Twice. But touchwood, my mother-in-law turned out to be more than just amazing—so amazing she makes me my morning tea and is an absolute angel. (Mom, I hope you’re listening.)And then… life threw its hardest punch. My mother passed. My daughter had just left for university, my son was next, and suddenly, I felt completely untethered. The grief was so bad, even my migraines, the 60 Panadols with codeine just to function kind of bad. My husband tried everything—trips to Greece, Istanbul… nada. If there had been a “Buy One, Get One Free” deal on escaping life, I’d have taken it.Then, a friend told me to read The Journey by Brandon Bays. (I already had it on Kindle, buried under a hundred other “I’ll read this someday” books.) But this time, I actually read it. And just like that, my healing began. No more meds. No more sickness. Just a deep realization that I wasn’t broken—I was becoming.And the universe? It was guiding me the whole time. Like when I saw an image of Avatar Meher Baba on a white cloth at my mother’s funeral—something I didn’t even understand back then. (More on that later.)Here’s the thing: healing isn’t about fixing what’s broken. It’s about remembering who you were before the world told you who to be.And that’s what I help others do.So stick around. Because these stories? They’re not just mine. They’re ours.And if you don’t get what i've shared — just vibe with the episode and see where it takes you
