I live in Paradise Valley, Arizona, and our wellness company, The TouchPoint Solution, is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona. I am a “first generation”—my parents emigrated from India before I was born and raised me in Georgia. Childhood was awesome. My sister and I grew up poor, and my family worked in a hotel, but from my childhood perspective life was great—sometimes being naïve is your greatest asset. Since we lived in a hotel, I had the biggest pool of all my friends! I got to spend time as my mom’s helper—carrying towels and spraying air freshener. The days were long for my parents working 24/7, but they were working for something that was theirs. When I was in first grade, we moved into a real house!
