In early 2021, we moved to the Hudson Valley as new parents to stay safe and isolated. I had two babies (human and business) and big plans for Garam Goddess while on maternity leave — often feeling frustrated that I couldn’t “get as much done.” (So many lessons learned during this time.)
I did my first farmers market in 2022, and it felt huge! It wasn’t just about making a delicious recipe anymore — I had to learn to sell, create a compelling table display, figure out a POS system, and schlep my tent, table, and gear to the market.
Every market, store, and person who stopped to taste Garam Goddess ever since has become part of a new community — one that welcomed my little kitchen experiments and gave them a home. Along the way, I learned what it really means to build a brand, design packaging that tells a story, and share the nostalgic flavors of India in every bottle.
Through it all, the core hasn’t changed — bold, flavorful, and unapologetically fiery. Being a mom has only made me more resilient, creative, and focused on what matters.!
