From Wall Street to Sephora with AAVRANI's Rooshy Roy
Episode notes
She had a Wharton MBA, a finance career at Goldman Sachs, and a clear path to “success.” But something deeper was calling.
In this episode of The SafeTea Podcast, Rooshy Roy, founder of Ayurvedic-inspired beauty brand AAVRANI, sits down with Akbar to unpack her journey of reclaiming identity, rejecting societal timelines, and building a business rooted in culture and purpose.
From growing up as the only Indian girl in her Michigan school to redefining beauty on her own terms, Rooshy shares how shame gave way to self-expression, and how rituals passed down from her mother became the blueprint for a global brand now carried at Sephora!
