Nisha Sankaran, my guest today, entered the world at the beginning of the year and the end of the zodiac, and overtime she has come to love the point at which the poles meet, where beginning meets end, in the mystery of that hazy dawn. She is a fan of the liminal, connection, healing, creativity and self-empowerment and knows that every human is boundless potential coming from the Loving Power that made us all. Nisha has formal education in Business, Anthropology, Healthcare IT and has continued education with Vedic astrology courses, classes at the Jung center, poetry, travel, personal writing and the ups and downs of life.
