E030 — Balancing Self‑Care and Business Launch: Reema on Building The Hira Collective


Holistic‑wellness advocate Reema Rachel Khithani shares the decade‑long journey behind The Hira Collective, an ethically vetted marketplace that now features 27 practitioners and a thriving events calendar.

She explains how multiple false‑starts, workplace setbacks, and personal grief taught her to slow down, honour self‑care rituals, and let the business unfold “on its own timeline.”

Reema also unpacks the Collective’s rigorous 17 % acceptance rate, her morning gratitude‑and‑earthing routine, and the money‑mindset work that’s redefining how she funds growth.

Listeners will learn why trusting your path, building community before marketing, and protecting practitioner‑client integrity are cornerstones of sustainable success.

“I'm okay to be a villain in someone else's story as long as I'm staying true to my values and my why.”

Takeaways:

  • Timelines can stretch, and that’s okay. Reema paused two planned launches after workplace trauma, proving a healthy founder beats a hurried rollout.

  • Daily self‑care fuels longevity. Her 90‑minute morning stack, Five‑Minute Journal, meditation, tapping, prayer, incense, phone‑free nature walk, keeps her grounded and creative.

  • Ethical vetting is non‑negotiable. Only 17 % of 250+ practitioner applicants make it onto the platform, with continuous re‑evaluation to protect clients.

  • Community > conventional marketing. Word‑of‑mouth from happy practitioners now drives new applications—proof that depth beats virality.

  • Rewrite your money story. Courses like Money EQ help her shift from scarcity to partnership with money, funding growth from a place of respect.
