Wise & Happy Blog

Hi Reader, This week, I’m sharing something I don’t usually talk about. It’s raw, it’s touchy, and it kind of marks the end of a chapter in my professional life. My journey in marketing has been anything but smooth. People often assume I’ve just been winning in this field, but truthfully, it’s been more about failure, redirection, and unanswered prayers that later made sense. I get it, though. As a coach, people come to me to start a career in marketing or grow in their role. I’ve helped…

How are you Reader? If you’ve been following my journey for a while now, you probably know one of my fascinations is watching air crash investigations. My toxic trait? I tend to binge on Nat Geo’s Air Crash Investigation episodes right before a trip. 😅 I don’t know why I do it either – but I’ve always loved airplanes, traveling, and the investigative element just hits the sweet spot for me. One fine evening, I was watching the episode on the crash of Kenya Airways Flight 507. Let me give you…

Hey Reader, Whenever I write about my learnings, it’s mostly so I don’t forget. I don’t know about you, but I’ve always been a firm believer in writing things down so they stick. There’s something about putting thoughts into words – like every letter, every stroke rewrites and imprints it into your brain. Now that I’m a bit over a year into motherhood, I can honestly say I’ve learned more than I ever did in four years at university – and probably even more than that. There are so many angles…

How do you do, Reader?Last weekend, I was reflecting on my coaching work and assessing some of my recent programs. One client stood out – he came to me wanting to develop emotional intelligence so he could show up better for his fiancée. We worked together for over half a year, and one of the most beautiful outcomes? He got married. What a way to conclude our work together! Hello Naveeeen! Awww. :’) Super proud of this guy. The first time he called me telling me he wants to learn emotional…

Happy Monday, Reader! Hahaha — even before I could begin writing this, I couldn’t help but burst out laughing just recalling the things I wanted to share. Mark, my husband, has always been one of my mentors. But he’s not the kind who coaches you or tells you what to do. He shows you new, odd perspectives on life that make you go, “Wow. Damn. It’s that easy?!” I used to wish that when I shared my challenges, he’d give me advice or explain things the way I often do. But after almost a decade of…

Hello Reader, Hope your weekend went well. Mine’s better than the previous weeks’ of being sick. I wanted to share with you a personal story and hope that by doing so, you find your own story of redemption. Losing my mom to cancer left me angry and full of doubt toward doctors and hospitals. I started to distrust everything they said. I avoided hospitals whenever I could. One memory still stings: an X-ray attendant once kicked my mom for walking too slowly even though she could barely walk….
