I thought WHY should women empowerment be the subject of conversation only in the Month of February-March. Women deserve the privileges they are offered more than just on a single day because they are worth it, every day of their life. Even today as I coach women through various segments of the society, at different phases and ages, I see somewhere there is an underlying fear of asserting themselves fully and stand for what they are and how they wish to project themselves in the world they live in; knowing well that they are worth it.

  No: The Most Powerful Word to Relearn which helps us prioritise and leads to more Success and Happiness We've been taught that it's good to say "Yes", to juggle a million things, to do and achieve as much as we can in as short a timeframe as possible!

It's that moment in our young lives when we suddenly realise we don't HAVE to do what we're told - and boy does it feel good! But it's inconve...

The Personal Excellence Program related to “Performance Coaching” is developed to help students to perform at the peak of their abilities, it involves drawing out their strengths, helping them to bypass personal barriers and limits in order to achieve their personal bests, and facilitating them to function more effectively through careful observation and feedback. Parents act as good guides and caretakers to their children providing them a safe and supportive environment. They attend to the external context making sure that what is needed is available, and that there are no unnecessary distractions or interferences from the outside. Here we mean basic needs are provided to ensure the child’s physical and mental health.   The next set of parents the child is exposed are the teachers in their lives.
