Founder
Hi, I'm Bhavika Patel.
I've spent my career helping people understand complicated healthcare policy, government systems, and public programs.
Again and again, I met thoughtful people who wanted to make a difference but weren't sure where to begin.
Shakti Prabhav grew from a simple belief:
When people understand how systems work, they're better equipped to participate, advocate, and create lasting change.
Advocacy doesn't belong only to experts.
It belongs to everyone.
