My Childhood
I was a middle child with four siblings, always in love with life. With a creative and adventurous spirit, I pursued all sports and vocational programs that came my way. It was easy to follow these interests under the umbrella of my wealthy parents.
Like any other teenage girl, I had ridiculously romantic ideas about life and love. I found the love of my life at an early age and married him while I was still a teenager. My parents were not very happy – they had more expectations from me. Surprised by my steadfast decision, they married me off half-heartedly, doubting our future together.
My Married Life
Right after marriage, as life would have it, we lost huge money in our first two business ventures, making us struggle to make both ends meet. As destined, we were already a three-member family. Our son was born before our first anniversary. The next three years were full of financial struggle. There is this funny thing about financial struggle, it takes all your time and energy and you hardly think about love anymore. My husband moved to the capital for professional growth and continued for the next 7 years.
The turnaround in my life happened when I took accountability instead of hoping for things to get better on their own. I took a bank job as soon as my son got into a neighbouring play school. I worked there for a year and a half and then took a corporate job, did my post-graduation alongside a job. As the work timings were fixed, I joined after-office classes to clear my MBA exams while my son was being looked after by my mother-in-law, thankfully.
Achieved a lot on the academic and professional front, but the lonely girl inside me was still relying on others for her happiness which was always short-lived. I could not carry on with the fake shallow life, a complete corporate burnout case and finally, I opted for a sabbatical.
My Transformation Process
Real-life TRANSFORMATION happened when I had all the world’s time at my disposal. I spent long hours introspecting, meditating, gardening, reading, enjoying humanly things that were not that common to me with a corporate job. These were healing me without my understanding, while I thought they were the only options in my life.
I enjoyed slow meals, gossiped with family & extended family, had a couple’s time sipping tea in the balcony. Wow! That was all so new to me, not feeling guilty for being happy. Slowing down did its magic on me. It healed me!
My Real Passion
I FOUND MY PASSION. My passion to help people, discover their true potential. I helped them discover their own selves, which brought them happiness and eventually they could reach their true potential and perform their best in life. That brought immense happiness and contentment in my own life.
Along with learning from my mentors Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, Sudhanshu Ji, Sister Shivani, Tony Robbins, Robin Sharma, I pursued Life coaching certification from internationally acclaimed Coach Mr. Arfeen Khan. I was whole again and started helping others “professionally” instead of being the agony aunt for friends and family over all these years.
I started my own company named “Bbetter Solutions” to empower people financially and emotionally through various programs- trainings, staffing, consulting.
I found the secret to happiness. Life has never been this beautiful. I feel like a protector and being protected at the same time.
I complete myself and so do YOU.
