Rasheda Khatun Khan is an independent wealth and wellness planner. Born in the UK to humble beginnings, Khan has worked her way up the ladder as a financial adviser in corporate banking, living and working in Dubai. In 2006 she was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma and told her changes of survival were slim.

Growing up, her family struggled with money and as she grew older and more successful financially, she would not have dreamed of spending on big lifestyle choices. However, after her brush with cancer, she realized there needed to be a balance between planning for the future and embracing today.
