About Farima
My journey started with a wake-up call
My work as a health and lifestyle speaker grew from a very personal wake-up call. When I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes with an A1C of 11.5, I began looking beyond individual foods and health rules and started paying attention to how my body was responding to the way I ate, moved, slept, handled stress, and lived each day. That journey led me to study Ayurveda, become a Diet & Lifestyle Consultant, and eventually create BluePlate. But the biggest lesson I learned was much simpler: our bodies are communicating with us all the time. Today, I teach people how to recognize those signals, understand their own patterns, connect the dots, and become active participants in their own health.
SIGNATURE TALK
The Missing Piece
Learning to Understand What Your Body Is Telling You
What if better health doesn't begin with another diet, another supplement, or another list of rules—but with learning to understand your own body?
In The Missing Piece, Farima shares the personal wake-up call that changed the way she thinks about health and reveals what happened when she stopped looking at food, sleep, stress, movement, and daily habits as separate problems.
Through personal experience and practical teaching, she helps audiences recognize the signals their bodies give them, understand their own patterns, and become more active participants in their health.

THE EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE MESSAGE
More than a health talk. A journey lived, studied and built upon.
Farima's message comes from the intersection of personal experience, formal study, years of teaching and the determination to turn what she learned into something that could help others.
11.5 → 6.5
Personal Transformation
After being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes with an A1C of 11.5, Farima began changing the way she ate and lived. Within approximately 90 days, her A1C had fallen to 6.5—an experience that became the starting point for a much deeper exploration of health and lifestyle.
Ayurveda
Diet & Lifestyle Consultant
Farima completed formal studies in Ayurveda and Panchakarma in Kerala, India, deepening her understanding of food, daily rhythm, lifestyle, and the relationship between the individual and their environment.
Author
6 Books & Years of Writing
Long before BluePlate, Farima was writing about life, personal growth, and the lessons we discover through experience. Teaching and making complicated ideas easier to understand have become central to her work.
Founder
Creator of BluePlate App
Farima turned what she learned into BluePlate, an AI-powered blood sugar coaching app that helps people recognize the daily patterns influencing their blood sugar and lifestyle.
“I don't teach health from a textbook alone. I teach what I've lived, what I've studied, and what I've learned to pay attention to.”
