Aligned & Abundant

From Orphanage to Empowerment: Shabana Knight’s Journey of Healing, Health & Home | Aligned & Abundant Ep. 12

Season 1 Episode 12

In this heartfelt and inspiring episode of Aligned & Abundant, Christine Marcario welcomes a deeply soulful guest and close friend, Shabana Knight. Shabana is a transformational life coach and holistic wellness guide who blends over a decade of fitness experience with her passion for helping women align their mind, body, and soul.

An adoptee from India, Shabana shares her powerful origin story—being found with her brother at a train station as a toddler and adopted into a loving family in the U.S. She opens up about how that early trauma shaped her life, and how returning to India decades later helped her access a deeper level of healing and understanding. Her story is one of resilience, grace, and rediscovering her truth layer by layer.

Together, Christine and Shabana explore:

  • How suppressed childhood trauma can resurface and awaken healing
  • The life-changing impact of visiting her orphanage in India
  • Her experience at the Bloom retreat and how it sparked deeper connection and bravery
  • Her transition from daycare worker to personal trainer and life coach
  • How she now supports others through hormone-balancing homeopathic drops, life coaching, and decluttering homes and hearts
  • The importance of morning (and nighttime) rituals and aligning with the natural seasons of life
  • Embracing support as a form of self-love—and letting go of the “clean plate club” mentality
  • Why decluttering your physical space can unlock emotional clarity and flow

Shabana’s mission is to help women feel better in their health, heart, and home. She reminds us that healing isn’t linear, that support is essential, and that we are all capable of choosing joy and rising into the next version of ourselves—no matter where we began.
