About the author

Shabeena Mirza

Shabeena Mirza is a lifelong learner, writer, traveler, and keen observer of life’s quiet, transformative moments.

With a deep passion for physics, she’s always been fascinated by the unseen forces—scientific and emotional—that shape our lives. But her greatest lessons have come not from classrooms, but from lived experiences: long layovers, detours across continents, shifting careers, and profound emotional turning points.

Her journey—spanning both corporate corridors and solitary travels—has taught her to embrace the messy, nonlinear process of growth. Through her writing, Shabeena offers comfort to those who feel lost, behind, or quietly overwhelmed.

Her message is simple yet powerful: even from zero, a meaningful rise can begin.
