“Life is too short to live by someone else’s expectations of you!. The only regrets you have at the end of life are the chances you didn’t take. So live your dreams and make them come true. Life’s too short for procrastination.”

After being a part of the entertainment industry for close to 2 decades, Shabia had begun to be disillusioned by the industry, the culture and its people. The erratic schedule coupled with her desire to spend quality time with her daughter had started to weigh on her mind.
Lot of us have this habit of reading scraps of papers lying around, the stories behind classmate notes and the ingredients in the multitude of cosmetics we buy for us and our family. Shabia also had this habit and every time she read the things that actually went into the soaps, creams her concern grew. She was increasingly growing unhappy with the products she was using, especially for her daughter.
And one fine day on a cold January morning, a very simple recipe of a body scrub caught her attention. Armed with the knowledge that all the ingredients are available at her home, she set out to concoct it up. All done, and after bathing with it; She came out of the bathroom smiling. “I had an epiphany. That’s how Wild Earth was born”, grins Shabia.
