Where ideas grow at the pace of reflection
Philosophya is a space for exploring what it means to live well in an age of hurry — where health, ecology, and purpose are not separate pursuits but deeply connected ones. Through essays, projects, and conversations, it seeks to reimagine well-being as a practice of stewardship — of self, society, and soil.
👤 Meet Pragya Thakur
Pragya Thakur is a public health advocate, writer, and National Board–Certified Health and Wellness Coach. Her work lives at the intersection of regenerative agriculture, lifestyle medicine, and the deeper human work of meaning and transformation.
Before becoming a life coach, health and wellness coach, and public health advocate, Pragya spent over two decades in the media, marketing, and strategy fields. This experience refined her understanding of systems and storytelling. Today, she applies that lens to health equity and ecological regeneration, integrating science with wisdom traditions and personal narrative.
She is currently pursuing her Master of Public Health at Boston University, where her research explores the intersections of climate, environmental justice, equity in food and health systems, and community well-being.
The Philosophya Ethos
Philosophya invites a slower kind of knowing — one rooted in listening, care, and connection. It is guided by three quiet principles:
- Health is relational. What heals one must not harm another — human, animal, or earth.
- Change begins within. Our inner ecology shapes the outer one.
- The pace of nature is fast enough. Wholeness unfolds when we learn to move with its rhythm.
🔭 Where My Work Lives
Through Philosophya, Pragya writes essays, leads coaching conversations, and collaborates on public health projects that connect personal and planetary well-being.
Her current initiatives include the Clean Water Equity & Pollution Prevention Act — a policy proposal addressing pesticide runoff and microplastic pollution — and regenerative agriculture partnerships that model health from the soil up, and a plan to expand Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) in the state of Nevada, which ranks at the bottom of healthcare access.
She also contributes to Ethos Farm to Health, an organization advancing the integration of food, climate, and medicine through education and advocacy.
