Welcome to Root & Rise — a space where stories, growth, and real-life lessons meet to inspire your journey.
I’m Surbhi Kaur. I work full-time in IT, and whenever I get the chance, I write. I love sharing stories that help people navigate setbacks and discover their own strength. My perspective comes from my own journey — a life-changing accident that could have taken everything, but instead became the spark for the purpose I carry today.
My new book Leadership Game Plan for Your Life is now available — a guide for anyone ready to lead themselves with clarity and courage.
