Coaching Teens & Creating Change

Picture the energy of Microsoft, the precision of Bank of America, the intellect of the Indian School of Business, and the innovation of the University of Washington. That’s the world I come from.
As a coach trained on the International Coaching Federation practices, I’m committed to the highest standards of ethics.
Drawing wisdom from the Indian epics, I’ve always been passionate about empowering the young generation and I see coaching as a powerful technique that can immensely benefit teens, youths, and their parents.

1. Who can benefit from your coaching programs?

My coaching is designed for teenagers, young adults, and their parents who want to build confidence, improve decision-making, and develop essential life skills.

2. How long does a typical coaching program last?

A standard program runs for 6–8 weeks, though some teens notice meaningful insights and progress as early as the first few sessions.

3. What areas do you focus on during coaching?

I focus on personal effectiveness, problem-solving, leadership, time management, goal setting, and helping teens overcome mindset barriers.

4. Are the coaching sessions online or in person?

Most sessions are conducted online for flexibility and accessibility, but in-person sessions may also be arranged depending on location and availability.

5. How do parents stay involved in the process?

Parents receive updates on overall progress (without breaking confidentiality) so they feel confident that their child is supported while still allowing teens their safe, private space to grow.

6. What makes your coaching approach different?
I combine real-world corporate experience, international coaching standards, and wisdom from Indian epics to create a unique, holistic approach that resonates with both teens and parents.
