GBMy life transformed drastically! Dr Mrinalini is not your regular career coach. She doesn’t superficially assess strengths and weaknesses and choose some career for you. She is an amazing and unique transformational career coach. She transforms a woman to become an authentic, happy, and confident person. While in the Unshackled Career Woman program, Mrinalini helped me to go deep inside to find all the answers I wanted. She helped me clear the years of pain, guilt and resentment. For the first time, I had clarity on what I want and what I don’t. Now I feel very confident about making all decisions, big and small, as compared to my previous self who was scared of making simple decisions. I have become quite assertive and can say NO without batting an eyelid. I landed my dream job in just the 3rd week of working with Mrinalini. I didn't realize that it would be SO easy to attract my dream job once I was able to step and really see how worthy I am. She went above and beyond and prepared an amazing resume and prepped me for interview within 24 hours of applying. I confidently communicated my values, asserted what I was truly looking for during the interview and negotiated the maximum possible salary. I was a stay at home mom with two kids for many years before I enrolled in the program. And to be able to land exactly what I was looking for by leveraging my qualifications instead of going after a new certification or degree is a miracle. It is so amazing to know that it is not that difficult to be happy and do what we like. I now have a clear path of where I want to go. I am a better person today personally and professionally. Mrinalini helped me to shift my mindset and patiently worked with me to resolve the challenges I had and provided me with resources to be happy, confident and authentic self. Thank you Mrinalini!

GBMy experience with creative and compassionate coach, Dr. Mrinalini Garv!! 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.

GBBreaking free of the 'status quo' I started working with Mrinalini after listening to her on her online webinar. I have always had problems with self esteem and self-worth. I still do. They will not leave you suddenly, but you can always learn to deal with them. Mrinalini has been able to help me cope with a lot of my problems. It is relatively easier for me to shed the thoughts of inadequacy now, because of the methods I learnt from her. One thing I appreciate about Mrinalini is that she doesn’t feed your ego blindly to make you feel good about yourself or have a falsely inflated sense of self. There is logic and science behind everything she tells you or teaches you. I have also never seen her agree to anything I say just for the reason that I am her client and she wants me to have a positive opinion of her. I am a Medical Doctor trying to switch my career at the moment. Out of all the modules that I went through, the one with the interview tips was the most beneficial for me. My favorite part of working with her was that I never felt judged for sharing any of my thoughts or beliefs with her which is very important for me She has the right amount of empathy to understand where you are coming from and tries to give you an explanation or a method to deal. I also connected a lot with her own past experiences which helped me open up to her even more. She quickly understands the right direction to go to without wasting precious time on useless banter and figure out the root cause of all your problems.

GBPhenomenal Career Coach Mrinalini I am so happy to write this testimonial for Dr. Mrinalini. I have been in the high-tech industry for 22 years with a great track record behind me. When I first started working with her, I was feeling under appreciated and stuck, at work. This had been going on for a few months and I was in the middle of making a career move. During my 2+ months of working with Mrinalini, I had several major realizations - I matter; my opinions matter; I am as important as anyone else in the room. I play small to make other people feel good about themselves. Awareness is the first step! This has changed how I show up at work. I now communicate from a place of confidence. During tough conversations, I am able to hold my ground and continue to make progress without becoming aggressive or defensive. I have become conscious of the times when I’m playing small to make other people feel good. I have realized that I no longer need to do that. I look at the big picture. I have realized that I bring more value to the organization by asking the right questions and assigning the right tasks to the right people rather than doing them myself. I am clearly able to articulate my needs to my manager and to other organization leaders and get the support I need. She also provides valuable techniques for meeting facilitation. Her work goes far beyond career coaching. She goes deep into your formative years to understand what your limiting beliefs are and where they came from. The role I’m currently in, has a high-level of responsibility without direct authority. In order to thrive in a role like this, I need to inspire, influence, and get things done by many cross-functional teams. The work that I did with Mrinalini will serve as a strong foundation for this role as well as my future roles. I strongly recommend anyone who wants to up-level their career to work with Mrinalini. Mrinalini is an incredible coach!

GBSelf realization journey to transform life (work and home) 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.
