Helping mid-career professionals regain clarity, confidence, and leadership presence

For over 25 years, I worked in senior corporate leadership roles, building businesses, leading diverse teams, and delivering results across Indian and global organizations.

What stayed with me most was not titles, designations, or milestones.

It was people.

Again and again, I saw capable, hardworking professionals who were successful on paper quietly struggling inside uncertain about their direction, carrying unspoken self-doubt, or feeling the pressure of expectations during role changes, promotions, or leadership transitions.

As a people leader, one of my natural strengths became supporting new joiners and emerging leaders—helping them gain role clarity, build confidence, and integrate effectively into demanding environments.

Over the years, I have mentored and guided more than 1,000 professionals navigating:

• early role transitions

• the shift from individual contributor to people leader

• settling into complex and high-pressure leadership roles

Alongside leading teams, I invested deeply in my own development. I trained as an ICF-accredited coach and engaged in Landmark programs, NLP, and mindfulness practices. These were not just credentials. They created a fundamental inner shift in how I lead, listen, and relate to people.

In 2024, I stepped out of full-time corporate leadership to focus entirely on coaching and mentoring mid-career professionals—people who are capable, experienced, and ready for their next level, yet seeking clarity, alignment, and confidence in how they move forward.

My approach: Coaching-led, mentorship-supported

At mid-career, the challenge is rarely a lack of capability.

More often, it is misalignment, comfort zones that no longer serve, or an incomplete inner shift into the next level of leadership.

My work begins at the being level—values, beliefs, identity, and clarity—and then moves into career direction, leadership presence, and confident action. Where useful, I integrate mentorship grounded in lived leadership experience, not theory.

Over the last year, I have partnered with 50+ clients across 300+ hours of coaching, supporting meaningful and sustained change in both career and life decisions.

Ways we can work together

Depending on the depth, pace, and focus that feels right for you:

1. Career & Leadership Clarity Pathway
   A focused 4-session engagement (75 minutes each) designed to move you from insight to clear, confident direction.

2. Coaching-led, mentorship-supported journey
   An 8- or 12-session engagement for deeper growth, leadership effectiveness, and life–career alignment.

3. Single deep-work session
   A one-off 75-minute session to work through a specific theme before deciding on a longer engagement.

If you are navigating a career or leadership transition and are seeking structured, thoughtful support, I would be glad to explore whether working together makes sense.
