I recently finished a six-week course focused on enhancing communication and professional positioning. Throughout the program, various tools were introduced to help reframe self-talk, foster genuine confidence, and manage anxiety. One of my key takeaways was learning how to network with executives and navigate unfamiliar environments. Overall, it was an insightful and well-structured program that provided me with practical tools for both everyday interactions and formal discussions. I left feeling more empowered, self-aware, and ready to communicate effectively in crucial situations.
Working with Mrinalini has been a transformational journey. Before I started the program, I was doing everything I could professionally but still dissatisfied and unclear on my next steps. The program and coaching helped me ground myself on my core values, what is important to me, set and work towards clear goals. I no longer second guess myself, learnt to build positive relationships with people at various levels in the organization, see myself as an equal in meetings and gatherings where I am usually the only woman of color. This has given me the confidence to speak up and share and own my ideas not worrying about how it would be received. I have learnt to navigate attending networking events and coming out with meaningful professional connections. Mrinalini was able to provide the tools through 1-1 coaching, role plays, and group meetings catered towards what I used to fear the most, speaking with senior leaders. I can now reach out and have meaningful conversations with senior leaders in the organization, learn from their insights and share my accomplishments and work. I have evolved as a person, learnt to set boundaries, show up as my authentic self at work and at home.I have had to navigate many career changes due to immigration and childcare responsibilities. Though I did well to stay in the workforce, I struggled to connect the dots and go after bigger roles. I am now able to clearly articulate my professional journey so far and position myself for senior leadership roles.When I started the program and coaching, I was concerned about losing these skills. But it has been like learning to ride a bike. We start with the balance wheels and once we’ve learned to ride the bike all we want to do is ride the bike through plains and valleys, enjoying the wind on our face and unafraid to fall and pick ourselves up again and again. It has given me the freedom to create a career, life of my choice and positively influence those around me.
I am an ambitious woman who had a successful career before marriage but found myself submerged in the South Asian family system, tradition and culture, losing my career and identity while serving my family. While taking care of my family was important, I completely lost sight of myself and became unfocused. Despite everything running smoothly at home, I faced a profound inner conflict, knowing that this life wasn't fulfilling my true self and dreams. For 15 years, I spiraled within family culture, unsure of how to break free and achieve my aspirations.Then, I encountered Dr. Mrinalini. My intuition urged me to connect with her, and that single call marked the beginning of my transformation. Initially, I believed she would only guide me through my career revival. However, Dr. Mrinalini's approach was holistic; she began by helping me understand myself, eradicating self-doubt and fear, addressing negative self-talk, healing my childhood trauma and made me realise WHO IAM. Through her guidance, I rediscovered my true self and what I genuinely wanted in life.Following this profound self-realization, Dr. Mrinalini assisted me in identifying the career path best suited to my renewed self-awareness and began guiding me through the process. The past six months of learning with her have been transformative; I am now a completely different person, driven and focused on achieving my goals. Dr. Mrinalini has been a phenomenal mentor, providing clarity amidst confusion and teaching exceptional workplace communication skills.She is an expert at helping individuals reach the next level, staying with her clients through every aspect of their journey, rather than moving on after a set time. I highly recommend Dr. Mrinalini for anyone seeking career development. She is truly an inspiring figure in my life.
My name is Abhijit and I am currently working as a Principal Product Manager in the Information technology sector. Since I transitioned from Engineering to Product Management quite late in my career, I was plagued by self doubt, imposter syndrome, and was slightly perturbed by the fact that my peers were doing better in the Product Management space.Thats when I approached Mrinalini who has been enabling south Asian women grow personally and professionally. She worked on my mindset by addressing a lot of burden that I have been carrying since my childhood. She enabled me to identify my belief system and my behavioral patterns and reasons behind it.This helped me gain confidence, brought lot of clarity in my thought process. I started approaching meetings and interviews with a owner mindset rather than a peer or sometimes a slave mindset.As a result of all of these efforts, I have been able to secure a new opportunity that has resulted in more than 100% salary increase. And this is just the beginning, I will carry all these learnings throughout my career and hence going up and beyond. So, thanks Mrinalini for guiding me, goading me, and pushing all the right buttons. I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for personal and professional growth
Mrinalini came to my life or I found her at the perfect time and space sequence. I was going through some challenging times at my work place and needed to make some decisions. I was at a point where “enough was enough.” With her help and guidance, we figured a way out. She guided and coached me on how to communicate my challenges and needs. I got results in a very short period of time probably 2 weeks after starting to work with her. She makes you really dive deep into your soul to understand yourself first. Once you better your relationship with self, everything else is just a domino effect. It gets better and better. Trust me, you won’t regret working with her in fact you must give it a try! :)
Dr.Mrinalini’s program is the best career program I have ever had in my life. Different from other general leadership or communication programs, her program is designated for each person’s need, and focuses on each of our specific career goal. Dr.Mrinalini is a an active listener who listens to our situations patiently and carefully, and provides thoughtful and timely solutions. She’s also a great motivator and has motivated me to step out of my comfort zone and stand for myself for multiple times. These exercises are memorable learning experiences and have a lifelong positive impact on me.I feel fortunate and grateful to have met her and joined her program.
My experience with creative and compassionate coach, Dr. Mrinalini Garv, has been an extremely positive, supportive and encouraging. Mrinalini’s tenor is sincere; her inquiry and feedback are constructive, customized, and metered with empathy and care. ...I was able to realize what value I bring to the table, boosted my confidence and taught me how to advocate for myself and helped me to get a chair at the decision table. She has great techniques for promotion and salary negotiation. I was very fortunate to have the incredible opportunity to work with Mrinalini closely as my coach. She listens carefully and goes to the very essence of what you are trying to accomplish and focuses on the outcomes. Her ability to bring out the best in each of her students is truly remarkable. She helped me see things about myself that I was overlooking. Thank you, Mrinalini!! You have a great talent and skill at this.
A journey of learning and self discovery (I didn't knew what my core values were, or my beliefs, my strengths). The program boosted my confidence, and it taught me how to negotiate salary as well. I got almost 70% salary raise in my current job. Thank you Mrinalini for all the guidance!
Deciding to work with Mrinalini as my career coach is one of the best decisions I have made for myself. Before consulting Mrinalini, I was in a place in my career where I often felt lost, undervalued at work, frustrated and uncertain of my career growth. I felt like I have reached a dead end and their was no way ahead for career advancement. Having consulted coaches to grow in other areas of my life, I thought it was high time to accept that I needed expert help to grow in my career too and that it is okay to ask for help. That's when I crossed paths with Mrinalini and life is not the same anymore. The core transformation that I have experienced after working with Mrinalini is that she reintroduced me to my value as an expert in my profession which I had started taking for granted for a while and so did the people around me as the world mirrors what is inside of us. One by one she helped me crush my long standing limiting beliefs about myself that was blocking the career success that was possible and available for me. She showed me what a valuable and unique asset I am to my company or for that matter any company that I may choose to work with in future. She coached me to never forget what value I bring to the table with my expertise and to always advocate for myself and my expertise wherever I work and to not only take up space at work but to unapologetically demand space at decision making tables and gain visibility at work. Her interview training skills and salary negotiation strategies are exceptionally beneficial and well crafted. Mrinalini is a compassionate, logical and highly knowledgeable career coach who has the rare skill to help her clients look at the most difficult situations as opportunities to step up and shine in their career. Mrinalini coached me to always look for outcomes & to not forget to highlight them, here are some of the tangible outcomes that I gained while working with Mrinalini in last few months:1) I became more assertive in the workplace, started speaking up confidently in meetings. I started taking up space.2) Two amazing dream job opportunities came my way back to back.3) I interviewed extremely confidently for the job as if I was having a conversation & assessing if the job & employer is really a good fit for me or not and I easily demonstrated my value and got the job offer.4) During negotiation phase I negotiated 10K in addition to what was offered to me and later it sank in for me, if I hadn't negotiated, I could have easily left 10K on the table and would have lost 100K in 10 years. 5) I learned to look at the employer as my equal during the interview process. They need me as much as I want them. This changed my perspective on how I show up for interviews differently now. "My career is not a hobby and I am going to treat it such" is one of the many valuable life lessons that Mrinalini has instilled in me that will stay with me forever. Thank you so much, Mrinalini for everything that you did for me. I am forever grateful to you.
In my career, I felt invisible, not valued. I wanted to have it all but was not able to give justice to all with peace (work and home). After having initial call with Mrinalini, I decided to take a leap of faith and join Mrunalini's coaching. It was a self realization journey that has changed me into a fearless individual who knows and demands their worth. She helped me find my calling, my dream. As Mrunalini says, 'Dreams are dreams until you take action to make them reality'.This experience gave me the courage to have high stake conversations at work. I was able to negotiate a significant salary raise under Mrunalini's guidance. The techniques she teaches transforms your life. Her guidance is not limited to work related issues unlike others in the professional coaching field.The techniques, she taught me, I practice them everyday. All the practical tools and techniques for specific work/otherwise situations, all the teaching material is very practical and valuable.It has helped me become a better leader in work and on social front while for my family I am a better mom, daughter, sister, mentor and wife.In future when I will be at crossroads in work life or personal life, I know I will be reaching out to Mrunalini. I am grateful for the journey and coaching with Mrunalini and my class of courageous women taking charge of all aspects of their life.
