The word Samaya means “time” and at its heart, Her Samaya is about reclaiming time for ourselves. Time to create, to connect, to slow down, and to simply be.

About the Founders 👩🏻 👩🏻

Her Samaya was founded by Sushmitha and Ameera, two South-Asian immigrant women who longed for a space that felt like home while living in Toronto. What began as a small creative outlet has now grown into a thriving community one that continues to build belonging and celebrate South Asian culture in all its diversity.
