From being a competent Instructional Designer and Trainer at NIIT Ltd., I took a 14-year hiatus to engage fully with my boys. Those years were filled with joy—volunteering at school events, crafting, reading bedtime stories, and hosting kiddie parties. I loved growing alongside them! As my boys became teenagers, I immersed myself in their world, supporting them at PTMs (life is challenging for young cricketers, you see), accompanying them to matches, and having open conversations during long drives.
Experiencing their successes and failures helped me understand them deeply. That’s when I realized my true calling: to support young people in becoming self-aware, responsible, and empathetic individuals.
Once my boys completed primary education, I began my second innings as a pre-primary teacher at Blossoms International School in Hyderabad. The love and respect I received from the school community reignited my passion and led me to explore human psychology. I pursued Master’s degrees in Education and Psychology, adding to my earlier Master’s in Economics, and trained under my brilliant mentor, Dr. Ali Khwaja, to become a counseling psychologist. My journey has been immensely fulfilling, thanks to the guidance of incredible mentors along the way.
