My conversation with Rachna was very, very meaningful. What stood out to me the most was that I genuinely felt heard and understood. She really sat with my situation, connected with me, and shared some of her own experiences, which made the conversation feel relatable and helped me connect with her perspective.
I was looking for someone who could simply listen to what I was going through, help me decode the situation, and look at it objectively - identifying the positives, the areas for improvement, and some of the gaps or factors I may not have considered. She set me on this path.
One of the things she emphasized was identifying the top four positives I’ve built through my work and experiences. That exercise helped me step back and recognize the strengths and accomplishments I’ve accumulated, rather than focusing only on the current situation.
She also gave me a bit of a reality check about how things could progress from here and helped me look at my circumstances from a different perspective. Overall, it was a very fruitful and grounding conversation. It helped me realize that I’m still in a positive position, that I have a lot of confidence and capability to build on, and that I still have plenty of room to explore different possibilities and shape my next steps.
