INOne of the best career and life coaches Working with Dr. M was one of the best decisions of my life. Me and my life both have changed drastically after working with her. We started working when I was at my rock bottom of my life. I didn't feel good about myself- physically and mentally. I used to criticize my body a lot and was on antidepressants and a heavy smoker. While working with her, she help me identify the root causes of why I was living my life this way and taught me the tools to eliminate my self-limiting beliefs. I got off the antidepressants in just one day and haven't needed medication since. I feel more confident about myself and my body. I don't judge myself any longer for my shape and size. I feel self-assured and have started to really love myself. I came to realize that I am worthy of having whatever I desire. In the past I would keep myself busy like a hamster on a wheel with no clear goals in sight. Mrinalini taught me to take actions that align with my goals, which has brought more ease into my life. She helped me see and own up my true value and I have learned to show up in life with power, not a victim. Her techniques are spot on and have given me the quickest results I could have ever hoped for. The people around me are loving the confident, clear and powerful person I have become. I highly recommend her to everyone who want to live their life authentically and blissfully.

INThanks Mrinalini My name is Abhijit and I am currently working as a Principal Product Manager in the Information technology sector. Since I transitioned from Engineering to Product Management quite late in my career, I was plagued by self doubt, imposter syndrome, and was slightly perturbed by the fact that my peers were doing better in the Product Management space. Thats when I approached Mrinalini who has been enabling south Asian women grow personally and professionally. She worked on my mindset by addressing a lot of burden that I have been carrying since my childhood. She enabled me to identify my belief system and my behavioral patterns and reasons behind it. This helped me gain confidence, brought lot of clarity in my thought process. I started approaching meetings and interviews with a owner mindset rather than a peer or sometimes a slave mindset. As a result of all of these efforts, I have been able to secure a new opportunity that has resulted in more than 100% salary increase. And this is just the beginning, I will carry all these learnings throughout my career and hence going up and beyond. So, thanks Mrinalini for guiding me, goading me, and pushing all the right buttons. I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for personal and professional growth

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. She listens carefully and goes to the very essence of what you are trying to accomplish and focuses on the outcomes. Her ability to bring out the best in each of her students is truly remarkable. She helped me see things about myself that I was overlooking. Thank you, Mrinalini!! You have a great talent and skill at this.

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!

GB"My career is not a hobby and I am going to treat it such" Deciding to work with Mrinalini as my career coach is one of the best decisions I have made for myself. Before consulting Mrinalini, I was in a place in my career where I often felt lost, undervalued at work, frustrated and uncertain of my career growth. I felt like I have reached a dead end and their was no way ahead for career advancement. Having consulted coaches to grow in other areas of my life, I thought it was high time to accept that I needed expert help to grow in my career too and that it is okay to ask for help. That's when I crossed paths with Mrinalini and life is not the same anymore. The core transformation that I have experienced after working with Mrinalini is that she reintroduced me to my value as an expert in my profession which I had started taking for granted for a while and so did the people around me as the world mirrors what is inside of us. One by one she helped me crush my long standing limiting beliefs about myself that was blocking the career success that was possible and available for me. She showed me what a valuable and unique asset I am to my company or for that matter any company that I may choose to work with in future. She coached me to never forget what value I bring to the table with my expertise and to always advocate for myself and my expertise wherever I work and to not only take up space at work but to unapologetically demand space at decision making tables and gain visibility at work. Her interview training skills and salary negotiation strategies are exceptionally beneficial and well crafted. Mrinalini is a compassionate, logical and highly knowledgeable career coach who has the rare skill to help her clients look at the most difficult situations as opportunities to step up and shine in their career. Mrinalini coached me to always look for outcomes & to not forget to highlight them, here are some of the tangible outcomes that I gained while working with Mrinalini in last few months: 1) I became more assertive in the workplace, started speaking up confidently in meetings. I started taking up space. 2) Two amazing dream job opportunities came my way back to back. 3) I interviewed extremely confidently for the job as if I was having a conversation & assessing if the job & employer is really a good fit for me or not and I easily demonstrated my value and got the job offer. 4) During negotiation phase I negotiated 10K in addition to what was offered to me and later it sank in for me, if I hadn't negotiated, I could have easily left 10K on the table and would have lost 100K in 10 years. 5) I learned to look at the employer as my equal during the interview process. They need me as much as I want them. This changed my perspective on how I show up for interviews differently now. "My career is not a hobby and I am going to treat it such" is one of the many valuable life lessons that Mrinalini has instilled in me that will stay with me forever. Thank you so much, Mrinalini for everything that you did for me. I am forever grateful to you.
