Have you ever had a moment that knocked the wind out of you, yet ultimately set you on a new, unforeseen path? At 25, life did just that—hitting me with a challenge that tested my limits. In that crucible of pain and reflection, I found my voice—a whisper of "thank you" amid the chaos, for the unseen strength we all possess.
That experience became my forge. Through the simple but profound acts of writing, absorbing the melodies of music, and delving into the teachings of Vedanta by Ms. Jaya Row, I sought solace. In December 2000, picking Tony Robbins’ book ‘Awaken the Giant Within’ was quite by chance during this period of seeking comfort through reading, making everything that followed feel almost preordained. This blend of serendipitous discoveries and deliberate reflection fueled my transformation. Healing didn’t occur overnight, but with each passing day, my resolve strengthened, weaving resilience into the very fabric of my being. I realized that the toughest moments can become the bedrock for our life’s work.
As a former Business and Talent leader within Fortune 500 companies, my professional journey has been both diverse and enriching.My global trek through the tech world and my life across continents have been nothing less than exhilarating. But more than just professional milestones, these chapters shaped the empathetic coach I am today. I’ve smiled, cried, succeeded, failed and rebounded —each experience helps me evolve into a more insightful and empathetic coach.
In 2012, as if the morning sun had pierced through a lingering fog, my true calling became unmistakably clear. Since then I have practiced as a Leadership Excellence Coach, specialising in Mindset Conditioning and Emotional Intelligence. I've been lucky enough to walk with leaders and teams as they too embark on their paths of self-discovery and growth.
My own metamorphosis continues. The learning journey is lifelong. My research in neuroscience, behavioral science, and social science keeps my mind buzzing with new ideas and understandings, bringing greater value through the support I offer to every individual and organization I partner with.
Creating inclusive spaces where diversity is celebrated isn't just my job—it's my passion. Because every story, including mine, is unique. And every transformation, a testament to human perseverance.
So, how about we connect and grow together? Your journey is unique, and your potential boundless. I'm here to listen, to guide, to explore with you. Let's celebrate each step, each leap, and even the stumbles, because that's where the real magic happens.
