Welcome home, precious human.
It’s time to get free.
I’m Meera (she/her)
…a Queer Woman of Color committed to the liberation of every. single. person. living in a marginalized body.
As marginalized people, long before we have a chance to know who we are, this world teaches us who we are allowed to be.
And whether you rebel, comply, or try to work around this reality - all these calisthenics erode your trust in yourself.
Imagine a day-to-day in which every decision you make is based in a firm, unwavering sense of self. Where you show up on your own terms, instead of constantly echolocating off the demands of the world around you. Imagine knowing how to show up for and as yourself even in circumstances where you’re not invited or promised emotional safety.
My work helps chronically over-functioning ( hiii, I see you, my “service-oriented” friend ) people with marginalized, intersecting and multi-dimensional identities reclaim your sense of self, agency, identity and power, so you can learn to navigate an unjust world as your truest self.
Let’s get you free, love.

My Self-Liberation Framework
My self-liberation framework is the foundation upon which all my work is built. In this public talk, I’ll invite you to understand your own internalized oppression in a new way, and explain how you can locate your own internal power even as you’re navigating the realities of an oppressive and unjust world.

Art Prints
My art-and-word prints are focused on the very same things my coaching is; permission, meaning and insight. I create them intuitively, in the hope that the piece you need is the one that finds you.
A little about me:
I’m a queer woman of color, soul mate to a white, transgender man, the daughter of South Indian immigrants, and the tipping point in a lineage of intergenerational trauma. For decades, I struggled to integrate the many facets of who I am - learning, instead, to “switch off” and “switch on” different parts of myself to navigate varied spaces. But even as the people around me viewed me as an adaptable, capable leader and person, I felt myself growing fractured, and slowly disappearing. Trying to belong everywhere meant that I ultimately belonged…nowhere. Something had to change, and that something was me.
That’s the personal foundation that my work is built upon - but my story isn’t yours. I’m a professional, ICF-accredited and Certified Wayfinder coach with a single purpose - to support marginalized and intersectional people in radically self-defining who you are for yourself, even as you navigate the complex realities of how you experience oppression.
Whether it’s within the entirety of your life, your leadership roles, or somewhere in between - I’m here to help you fully unearth your voice and come to a richer understanding of all the parts of you - so you can stop trying to justify your worth, and start trusting and following your own deepest nature without reservation, shame, or the need for external validation.

A little about my principles:
Anti-oppression. Pro-liberation.
Not just for show.
The white wellness and coaching industries are notoriously toxic for people of color, queer people, those with intersectional identities, disabilities or thick bodies, and anyone else that doesn’t fit into cis, white, heteronormative spaces, or wishes to disrupt them. In those spaces, so intent on “love and light” at the expense of justice, our voices are routinely silenced, diminished, tokenized, disqualified and placed on the outskirts of conversation. That’s why all my work and business practices center anti-oppression practices and accountability, irrespective of the identity of the person working with me. In my world, marginalized voices are sacred and centered.
