Hi, I'm Amrita Bharti, and I am glad you are here. A detailed note is shared below, but the three key things you should know are listed first: 1. I have gone through the whole "Is this it!?" phase after achieving my goals, and holding good jobs that offer a lot of value. I have felt empty and purpose-less, and navigated my way out of there through books and support from other people. It was a mix of working on my mental health, mental fitness, physical changes, intentional external changes to my surroundings, a myriad of internal shifts. If you are navigating a similar space now, let's talk. 2. I have had 4 seemingly unrelated roles. Career transitions have naturally found their way to me - and the bedrock has been 'transferable skillsets'. If you are navigating / contemplating a career transition, I am here for you. 3. The best time of my life (once I started working) has been my planned career break. It took me 4 years from the day I knew I needed a career break to actually taking it. You don't have to spend that much time depleted - if you are considering a break, let's talk. Detailed bio: I am a trained professional coach, on a mission to help employees lead happier work lives. I do this through a wide range of skills and frameworks I have acquired in my NYU coaching program, and hundreds of hours of live coaching education and experience. I am an ICF member, and currently working towards an ACC credential. Over the past decade or so, I have been on the search for my ikigai, although I found this word only about 5 years ago. And, on this decade-long journey, I have worn many professional hats. I have been an investment banker at Goldman Sachs, DGM Strategy for Godrej Consumers, and have been an integral part of core strategy teams at two well-funded technology startups, one in the AI space. I've worked briefly with Walmart, taken a planned career break, and I am currently working in the technology industry. I have lived in 10 cities so far, and my most recent adventure has brought me to New York City. I am a daughter, sister, spouse, and friend. I love reading books - physical printed books that I can hold and smell. I enjoy drawing, practicing yoga, hiking, going on long walks, and I'm absolutely crazy for chai. On the adventure vs. comfort spectrum, I sit in the middle zone, but closer to adventure. Thanks to my strong support system, I have had the privilege to complete my schooling from DPS Ranchi, engineering from BITS Pilani (Hyderabad), and MBA from IIM Ahmedabad. Each of these experiences has deeply shaped who I am today.
