She built an empire on beauty — but behind the brand was a woman fighting battles no one could see.
In this episode, the PRI-TEA ladies sit down with Ms Sivarani, the powerhouse behind Rupini’s — one of Singapore’s most iconic beauty salons. From launching a threading parlour in the ’90s to raising a daughter she named her business after, Rani shares the heart behind the hustle.
Just as her daughter was about to leave for medical school in 2011, Rani received a breast cancer diagnosis that changed everything. She chose to take it in her stride, continuing to run a business and hold space for others — while learning to navigate healing on her own terms.
From legacy to loss, from eyeliner to inner strength — this episode dives into what it really means to show up for yourself while showing up for everyone else.
Because sometimes, the most beautiful transformations are the ones no one sees.
