Why the Work Became Personal
Qualifications explain part of a coach’s background. They do not fully explain why a person chooses this work, what they notice in a room or how their philosophy develops.
Dr Krishna’s own story grew from years of seeing capable, successful people struggle with the human cost of performance: pressure, identity, relationships, self-regulation and the gap between looking successful and feeling fulfilled.
That experience shaped a coaching philosophy centred on self-awareness, deliberate choice and sustainable performance rather than motivation alone.
