Untether Your Life

Untether Your Life empowers listeners to own their own health and break free of "templates" for managing physical and mental wellness, along with traditional South Asian definitions of success.

Untether Your Life is part of The Shelly Story platform, which captures Nikhil and Shelly’s journey in a blog, book, and upcoming movie. For more info visit shellysood.com or untetheryourlife on social media.
