Big Dream In A Tiny House with Asha Mevlana

As a musician, Asha Mevlana is currently the lead violinist for the Trans Siberian Orchestra. Her favorite music memories include touring with Dee Snider (Twisted Sister) and Gnarls Barkley and performing at the Grammys. While she was living in Los Angeles, Asha performed regularly with the American Idol band, The Tonight Show, The Ellen Show and played with Mary J. Blige, Jay-Z, and Alanis Morrisette. Asha also built a 400 sq. ft. Tiny House and was featured on HGTV on the Tiny House Nation Show. Asha was also a very dear friend in high school, in my AP Bio class, and has always been a world class woman. She now lives in Arkansas with her dog Bali.

Asha talks about how she always played it safe in life until her breast cancer diagnosis at the young age of 24. This experience changed her life, and today she now lives out of her comfort zone and taking on fear with excitement and unabashed readiness. You are going to be so inspired by Asha’s wisdom and candid sharing.
