It was passed down to her by two central pillars of her life — her mother and her mother-in-law. For generations, the women of their family understood how to use seasonal grains, edible gum (\u003ci\u003egond\u003c\/i\u003e), warming spices, and pure cow ghee to nourish the whole family across every stage of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Shaila has transformed this generational kitchen wisdom into a thriving village collective. As the leader of her local self-help group, she provides steady, dignified livelihoods to more than 10 women from her village.
