Meet Juhina Farooki

Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Juhina Farooki. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Alright, so we’re so thrilled to have Juhina with us today – welcome and maybe we can jump right into it with a question about one of your qualities that we most admire. How did you develop your work ethic? Where do you think you get it from?

I developed my work ethic from watching my hardworking parents, who juggled multiple jobs to provide for our family and instilled in me the value of perseverance and determination. From a young age, I had to carry my own weight with little to no support, which taught me resilience and the importance of self-reliance. My dreams of becoming a successful entrepreneur continue to fuel my drive, even as I navigated the demanding journey of completing my undergraduate and master’s degrees, along with an internship—all while raising three children. Through every challenge, my motivation has remained clear: to build a comfortable and successful life for my family and to set a powerful example of work ethic and ambition for my kids. True work ethic requires strength, resilience, and a commitment to your vision, no matter the obstacles.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

What excites me most about this new chapter as a wellness business owner is the opportunity to create a sacred, intentional space where people can truly reconnect with themselves—mind, body, and spirit. Embarking on this journey feels like stepping into my purpose: to help others heal deeply, release what no longer serves them, and rewire their subconscious mind for success and empowered manifestation. Aura Holistic & Metaphysical Wellness is more than just a business—it’s a movement rooted in resilience, transformation, and soulful alignment. Our mission is to guide individuals on their path to inner peace, clarity, and abundance through integrative practices like Reiki, sound healing, functional wellness, and holistic therapies.

We’re thrilled to invite our community to two upcoming events that embody our vision. On August 2, we’re hosting a Wellness Retreat from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, designed to reset your energy and align you for the new season. This immersive day will include a sound bath, foot detox, drama therapy, soul healing with cacao, fitness & yoga, and a nutrition session—with food, drinks, and swag bags included!

Also, don’t miss our Book Club & Manifestation Workshop on July 19 from 4:00–5:30 PM, where we’ll dive into Manifest by Roxie Nafousi. This inspiring session includes snacks, beverages, and guided manifestation exercises that will help you unlock your potential and take actionable steps toward your dream life.

We’re here to help you transform, rise, and manifest a life that feels deeply aligned and full of purpose.

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?

The most impactful qualities and skills are my ability to build networks and relationships, having empathy, and having strong work ethic. My biggest advice is do not give up even when it gets difficult or you do not see light at the end of the tunnel. Push through and keep going. If you need a day off take it. Take time for self care!

What has been your biggest area of growth or improvement in the past 12 months?

Over the past 12 months, my biggest area of growth has been stepping into leadership with confidence and clarity—both personally and professionally. Transitioning from working within structured environments to becoming a business owner has pushed me to expand in every direction: from mastering operations and marketing to trusting my intuition and leading from the heart. I’ve become more resilient, learned to navigate uncertainty with grace, and developed a deeper sense of purpose. Most importantly, I’ve grown in my ability to balance being a present mother and a passionate entrepreneur, proving to myself that I can create the life I’ve always envisioned—one rooted in healing, alignment, and impact.
