"The most important thing that I learned is to be fully present in a conversation and to serve from a place of love and compassion"

I wanted to be a Life Coach and had been toying with the idea for some time. I have a space on Quora where I answer questions related to relationships, dating, and immigration, and it has over 2.5 million views. 

One day, I thought how nice would it be if I could work directly with the people along with answering their queries. I am a people's person and have been into teaching and training for many years. The success of a student inspires me to perform better and makes me so happy. I wanted to achieve the same in Life Coaching.

 I started to look for certifications in the field and finally decided to go with Mindvalley. The most important thing that I learned is to be fully present in a conversation and to serve from a place of love and compassion. I also learned so many useful techniques from the master coaches and also my peers which helped me a lot. 

Now, I want to reach out to people in my space and start my coaching career.
