GROWING PAST BLAME.

Sometimes, when things don’t go the way we want, we feel like it’s someone else’s fault. We blame our parents, teachers, friends, spouses, or anyone around us, even our background or upbringing. That’s normal. Blames are sometimes valid, and it feels easier to blame than to face pain, confusion, or disappointment. But at some point […]

SCENE OF ENCOUNTER.

There was this experience that taught me a lot in my journey as a consultant. A client came for visa renewal but didn’t have much balance in her account to make her application.

What’s Your Story?

Every artist, every teacher, every writer and mentor you admire today, every one of them, started with a choice. They decided to stop watching from the sidelines and to start creating. That moment, when they chose to begin, wasn’t always […]
