Did you know that getting an ADHD diagnosis takes from 6 months to 2 years? By the time it arrives you are exhausted, stressed and techniques to support your memory are hardly remembered. So are you doomed forever, before getting any help? Well, luckily, no. I quit my senior career in Tech, to help others in their ADHD journey earlier. But how? With a supplement. In the form of physical memory aids and 5-minute a day online trainings. The main thing is, it prevents stress from building up. I know because I use these memory aids myself every day.

But it was through her own lived experiences - navigating trauma, transition, and growth - she discovered that real healing begins when we learn to put ourselves first - not from selfishness, but from sacred necessity. ​Nourish Oils was born out of that journey, one ritual at a time. These blends are designed to restore calm, rebuild confidence, and reconnect women with the power they thought they’d lost. It is more than skincare. It’s soul-care, self-compassion, rooted in resilience. ​​​​​**🌟** Meet our panelist, Pankrit Jindal - [https://www.linkedin.com/in/pankrit-jindal/](https://www.linkedin.com/in/pankrit-jindal/) ​Data analyst turned founder of meal planning app, Bean, Pankrit is dedicated to freeing up headspace, time, and money for busy professionals and parents one meal at a time. ​Bean checks your pantry, suggests recipes, builds AI meal plans, and auto-generates your shopping list, so meal prep takes 10 minutes, not two hours. ​Enjoy 1 free month of AI-personalised meal planning via, Bean.
