She is an international speaker and sustainability thought leader whose journey of personal transformation inspires audiences around the world.
Academically trained in advanced degrees in India as well as the USA, from a life of adventure where she spent her life in the wild spaces in India, pursuing research on endangered species' ecology, life led Trisha through many challenges, and in mid-life, she found herself single, overweight, over-qualified and under-experienced for almost any job on the market, with two young boys she would shield with her life, from anything.
When she was found "unsuitable" for a job even as a short-order cook, Trisha closed the door on the pursuit of a job, and put herself to work as a real estate professional. Her paradoxical background, in wildlife and environment, and in operations management, almost made her the perfect fit for a career in real estate. She never looked back.
Trisha raised herself, from being a licensee in an area where demographically she did not find recognition easily, to becoming a broker, respected and followed, in her field. Trisha became her own best coach and mentor, disciplining herself through a rigorous schedule of work and exercise, and in less than a year, yielded a woman whom her closest friends failed to recognize.
As she rose, the will remained strong, within Trisha, to share her journey, to empower others. Her first journey of empowerment was to become an instructor in the international Les Mills' Body Combat format. At that time, overweight and with knees that did not want to co-operate with her, she persevered with sheer will power, to pursue and become a trainer. When the local gym told her quite emphatically, that they would never hire her to teach, Trisha faced this setback with her inner strength. The monolith that she had climbed single-mindedly for an entire year, unceremoniously dislodged her onto the ground. She stood up, and looked for the door she could open, since that one was closed to her.
A researcher and true learner at heart, she found her new path in the discipline and art of Shotokan karate. A former dancer and classical singer, "practice" and "rewaaz" was not unfamiliar to her. In a little more than 10 years, she earned her Black Belt in Shotokan Karate. Throughout this journey, her pursuit of karate helped her balance and shape her career in the demanding field of a real estate broker and instructor. Her inner drive became the catalyst for profound change—physically, mentally, and spiritually—fueling her rise into a confident, purpose-driven businesswoman and global influencer.
Today, Trisha blends her powerful personal story with deep expertise in sustainability, global real estate, and personal growth to ignite transformation in others. Her dynamic presentations offer more than inspiration—they provide a roadmap for turning adversity into empowerment and aligning success with purpose. Trisha Roy is living proof that change is possible at any stage of life, and she is dedicated to helping others find their own path to clarity, confidence, and impact.
Trisha began giving back, almost from the day she began her career in real estate, persevering in volunteering, in her association, in her community, even when at times her gift was unwelcome, and her words overlooked, and she felt invisible.
In time, her work spoke for itself. In time, her words found resonance. In time, others found that her words could influence and empower them.
Today, Trisha considers herself a "work in progress", and she hopes the day she feels otherwise, is the day she closes her eyes forever. She practices karate everyday, still studying under the instruction of her Sensei.
