Turning pain into power or obstacles into opportunities is an art many new-age leaders or entrepreneurs lack, but the few who do it become pioneers and icons of their industries. When a leader becomes the light, who can brighten many lives around them, they illuminate a new path, where everyone shines. Lighting the way for others, Roshni Sharma-Fleming, the SHE-EO/FoundHer of StillFire Healing Inc., is on a mission: to provide wholistic education and healing that supports women 30+ in achieving optimal wellness. By integrating mind, body, and spirit, we teach and empower women with practical and wholistic tools to restore balance through self-care and self-love, and to live fully aligned with their Divine Feminine Essence. A multi-faceted personality, Roshni is an author, podcaster, founder, educator & healer. Her journey is one filled with wisdom, courage, grit, and a positive mindset.
From Breakdown to Breakthrough
When personal pain becomes a professional pursuit, it becomes a win-win situation. For Roshni, her journey reflects the same, having faced a life/death illness and navigating the healthcare system during COVID-19 were some of the most challenging experiences. However, she survived and it was these very challenges which inspired her to choose a new path. She vividly states, “Covid-19 illuminated my deepest priorities and responsibilities. It also amplified my knowledge as a healer. Personally, the pandemic was a blessing in disguise. I met more neighbours, I was outside in nature every day, and it really gave me a deep chance to dive into what I really wanted to do with my career. I think COVID was a pivotal point in many people’s lives. In 2021-2022, my battle with a life/death illness catalyzed my deep passion for women’s empowerment & wholistic wellness.”
Roshni’s struggles taught her ways to heal and achieve optimal wellness using wholistic modalities. Her struggles also demonstrated how self-advocacy and self-worth are key components to a woman’s well-being. Now, she teaches and empowers women to use wholistic and practical tools, so they too can achieve optimal wellness in mind, body, and spirit. From an academic standpoint, Roshni has a Master’s degree in Education, is a Certified Educator, and a Certified Usui Reiki Master. She uses her teaching talents to coach and empower women through courses and webinars and has co-authored two books in 2025, namely Celestial Wellness: An Astrological Guide to Women’s Wellness and Embrace & Empower: A Pathway to Self-Love.
Teaching: A Fulfilling Experience
Roshni loves teaching! One of the most fulfilling and successful projects was hosting monthly free webinars to share wholistic knowledge with other women. She partnered with other wholistic practitioners, shared her knowledge, and the guests appreciated the information and education. Roshni believes education is a key component in making choices for optimal well-being because there are a multitude of choices available to women today. One has to successfully choose and be guided as to what’s right for their body, mind, and spirit. This is where the most powerful transformations happen.
For Roshni, teaching has always been instrumental and her zone of genius. At teacher’s college, she was asked to present on modern teaching practices to other teaching candidates. Similarly, in elementary school, she practised Speech Arts. These experiences were seemingly low-key, enjoyable, but pivotal experiences. When she is approached to speak about her work in person or virtually, she embraces the opportunity to share her story and knowledge. She recognizes that her ability to connect with others with her voice is bringing humanity and wisdom to her company and to her clients in a highly digital world.
The Journey Begins with a Single Step
Challenges are a part and parcel of every journey, but it’s motivation that helps to overcome them. Roshni shares a quote by Martin Luther King Jr. – “You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step”. Challenges are also an invitation to take the first step in solving something personally and professionally. This is where growth happens!
Just imagine, if there are no challenges, how would one know what they are capable of? Of course, challenges aren’t easy, but they are crucial for personal and business success. Roshni states, “When one solves a problem, overcomes a challenge, there is a deep and soulful feeling, a satisfaction, a sense of achievement that keeps one motivated and going. This builds muscle for the next challenge and prepares leaders and entrepreneurs for their visionary journeys”. Additionally, sustaining her personal well-being helps in challenging times especially as a fempreneur. Hence, Roshni practices breathwork/stillness/meditation to harness her energy. When things get hectic, she can return to the safety of her self-care practices like breathwork, knowing everything will work out for her best and highest good.
Navigating Growth and Responsibility with Balance
Roshni refuses to abide by stereotypes; instead, she has set out her own path of balancing ambition with well-being, and most importantly, reflecting her ability to grow in the face of hardships. For her, balance is extremely important, and it is achievable by prioritizing what’s important during the workday. She reckons one can achieve everything, just not all at once. She actually doesn’t believe in high-pressure environments because they arrest the nervous system and can lead to a multitude of health problems. She looks at this from a broader perspective: “In every work environment or competitive industry, pressure does exist, but whether one responds or reacts to it determines the outcome, especially in well-being/health.” She adds, “If you and your business values are authentically aligned, you can make sound decisions coming from a place of balance, trust and priority and not just from pressure and stress. True leaders model this and it is where true success is cultivated. I am a perpetual learner. I am always curious to see what else I can learn, which serves my quest for knowledge and helps my company to thrive. I have designated micro-learning times during my work week.”
Anchored in Core Values and Healthy Lifestyle
Roshni defines her core values as Health, Integrity, Authenticity, Love, Balance, and Communication. She profoundly states, “Fear is prevalent in this world we live in; however, love is much more powerful.” Love for oneself, one’s business, and for others. Self-love is never selfish, and it builds a solid bridge to one’s most authentic self. If one feels balanced and healthy, their business will naturally thrive in their presence and attract aligned opportunities. Communication at work and in your personal life is a tool that can bridge solutions, bring welcome change, and also develop beautiful and supportive relationships and collaborations.
Health continues to be a passion project for Roshni. She lives by her values, especially in health. She is focused on making self-care and self-love choices personally and professionally, to make her feel grounded, happy and secure. For her, some days require a simple routine, like meditation to keep her in good spirits, and other days require a more rigorous routine, like dancing and tree-hugging (yes, she hugs trees!) to shake off any challenges that may arise. It’s all good at the end of the day because she knows, when she feels good, this frequency reverberates outwards to her business, to her family and to her community. Small ripples, big impact. Making changes in health and well-being can be overwhelming; however, taking just one small step towards something healthier will always have benefits in the long term.
Leadership That Inspires Beyond Measure
When Roshni fell sick, she learned that self-care and self-love were always an afterthought for her. She states, “Illness was a stark reminder that there is only one of me, and I need to make the best choices for my health and well-being. I couldn’t find another body at Home Depot! I needed to love myself more. This was a big lesson.”
As a leader, if someone can’t attend a meeting, if they aren’t well, or if they forget, Roshni is always compassionate and cognizant that there is a life happening outside of everyone’s job. Demonstrating these softer skills when handling a project always serves the highest good. It develops trust between teams and also creates a safe container for success/vulnerability. Roshni concludes by adding, “Another big lesson has been vulnerability. It is next to impossible to do everything on my own. When you are running a business, you have to get really real with what you are capable of and what your strengths and weaknesses are. This will support you when you need to hire someone to help you out with a task or a project. It is a well-known fact that vulnerability is a strength, which is contrary to what societal programming tells us.”
The Most Defining Influences
Roshni’s father has been her greatest influence. He always said to her, “Keep it simple”. He was a hardworking and kind human, a great chef, and a very loving man. He taught her to balance things out and also exemplified how powerful simplicity can be. He has a key driving force in Roshni’s life, and she embodies his essence each day. She is also influenced by many women in leadership roles, who, like herself, are heart-centered leaders with big visions doing amazing things in this world. When one combines these aspects, it affects change in a significant way. The rise of the feminine voice is desperately needed in this world to rebuild systems where humanity has been lost. A voice like this can reintroduce empathy, compassion, and love. A voice like this builds inclusive communities and new ways of being where everyone thrives.
Roshni is a passionate and purpose-driven leader who aims to bring change and aspires to teach women that they can lead better and healthier lives by prioritizing their self-care and self-love practices. Everything she chooses for her company is fueled by this aspiration. She wants to create a company that educates women to access their internal medicine, so they too can become models for health and well-being, and also help heal their Divine Feminine essence.
Roshni’s Equation with Success
Roshni defines what success means to her: “Success to me means a balanced business along with a balanced body, mind, and spirit. If I feel great, that energy ripples out in my professional and personal life. My family life is also very important to me, and if they are happy, everything else falls into place. In my business, if I have healthy professional relationships with my network and my colleagues, anything is possible. They have been extremely supportive of my work and my business, and I am deeply grateful to them. When my clients write testimonials about the guidance and transformation they have experienced with me, this is a huge reminder that StillFire Healing Inc. is serving a deep need in women’s health and well-being by providing education and empowerment. Health is Wealth!”
