The people behind the questions

Basim & Ramsha

A personal journey. A shared curiosity. A space for the conversations that change how we see — and how we live.

Basim and Ramsha, the interviewers behind Retreat Institute

It began with a question:
What if life could feel different?

In 2015, Basim and Ramsha were feeling stressed, unhealthy and exhausted. Their search for a different way of living led them to nutrition, the wisdom of nature and mindfulness — the personal journey at the heart of NutriRise.

That curiosity reaches beyond physical wellbeing. Through Retreat Institute, they invite deeper conversations about awareness, purpose, relationships and the practical choices that shape a life.

The intention is simple: give remarkable teachers room to share, let new perspectives unfold, and create space for your own revelations. Spiritual expansion becomes more meaningful when you can bring it into everyday life.

Ramsha

Ramsha’s experience of navigating wellbeing as a new mother helped shape the couple’s search for nourishment, balance and a deeper connection to themselves. Retreat Institute extends that curiosity into mindful living and the perspectives that help us grow.
