As I opened WhatsApp, a notification caught my attention. I got sucked into responding to a message…My idea vanished like a cloud in the sky, there one minute and gone the next. My focus was lost. What was the message? Who was it to be sent to? Stolen from me.

In crisis communications, coaching, or in life, here is me reminding myself to always have the courage to speak out. To ask questions and do what’s right in my own quiet way. Sometimes it will create drama. Sometimes it will help avoid it. Ask the hard questions.

Letting go of my not-enough-ness, by asking the question “What is ‘enough’ for me? This dance between ‘being seen’ and ‘seeing myself’ is what helps re-balance, reenergise, realign, and sometimes completely reset.

The writing is on the wall… everybody wants to write a book, not that many want to read one

I am happy to share that I passed my Professional Coach Certification (PCC) exam. As per the ICF Fact Sheet - March 2025, there were 25,656 PCC coaches worldwide. 932 of them are from India. Given that I joined the PCC club in June, am guessing that is now around the 1000 mark.
