It is not uncommon or abnormal for a woman to be overwhelmed by life situations, and to feel like a victim of circumstances. I can very well relate to this state of being and the emotions that come with it – helplessness, frustration, anxiety, fear and apprehension about the future, a sense of apathy sometimes, or listlessness and so on. Reasons could be any or all of the following:
Work very stressful and/or no longer motivating/challenges dealing with boss and/or co-workers; but unable to give up due to various reasons, most important financial commitments and constraints.
- Enjoy the work that you do, but unable to focus enough- balancing family and profession is proving to be quite an ordeal.
- Enjoy the work, but unsettled because it is leading to tensions at home – family/extended family not very understanding.
- Have given up career at some stage to cope with family requirements, but now struggling to discover/rediscover your identity
- Health has taken a beating, trying to get back on track, both in terms of career and personal life.
- Job/career impacted by COVID, and laid off, now don’t know which way to go. Feeling diffident and fearful about looking out or pursuing options.
- Ready to restart your career after a break, and have some ideas, but don’t know how to create a focused plan, where and how to start.
While all of these manifestations or symptoms may be common, what is still quite uncommon is to find an outlet, a sounding board, who can listen and help you deal with the situation, better still enable you to find answers. Answers that lie within you, but need a catalyst, need nourishment to burst forth, pretty much like a seed that germinates and puts out shoots when the soil is right and it also receives the right proportion of water and sunshine. Above all, to be able to create a pathway, a roadmap to what you consider an effective life situation.

SO, WHO AM I AND WHY AM I OFFERING THIS?
An HR professional, now a coach and OD facilitator working with individuals and organizations

I have learnt to yield to the universe and let it guide me.
I have explored deeply my perspectives, limiting beliefs, and futile sensitivities; found ways to deal with them, flip them around, overcome them. I have cultivated the ‘warrior mindset’. A mindset that I believe every woman like me is capable of cultivating… And the means to get there are what I would love to share with you – through the ‘Victim to Warrior Mindset’ program.
