Why Leaders Get Addicted to the Podium: Ego, Identity, and Reward Loops
I have coached leaders who can negotiate billion-rupee deals, handle crises with a straight face, and command rooms full of sceptics. Then, in the next breath, they confess something quietly human: “If I am not the one speaking, I feel irrelevant.” That sentence is not about strategy. It is about wiring. The podium is not…

How to Develop Tri-Intelligence Leadership: A Practical 30-Day Training Plan
India does not suffer from a lack of talent. India suffers from a surplus of noise. Everyone has an opinion, a notification, a shortcut, a hustle. In that racket, leadership quietly degrades into performance. We start managing optics instead of meaning. We chase compliance instead of commitment. We mistake pressure for power. When I coach…

Falling in Love with Your Coach: What It Means, Why It Happens, and What to Do Next
There is a particular kind of intimacy that doesn’t look like intimacy at all. No candles. No flirtation. No “good morning” texts. Instead, there is presence. Attention. Curiosity without judgement. Someone who remembers what you said three weeks ago about your father, your fear, your habit of shrinking. Someone who listens long enough for you…

We’ve All Seen the Nihilist Penguin. But What If It Isn’t Nihilism at All?
I watched that lone penguin waddle away from the colony and felt an uncomfortable honesty rise in my chest. Not pity. Not laughter. Recognition. The internet called it “nihilism”. Nothing matters.

Loneliness Makes You Choose People You Wouldn’t Choose Otherwise
I have watched it happen in coaching rooms and cafés, and in the quiet glow of late-night messaging. A smart, discerning person meets someone who is simply available. Not kind. Not steady. Just there. And in a season of loneliness, “there” can look like “destiny”. This is the heart of loneliness relationship choices. Loneliness is…

Rage After Resilience: Why the Strongest People Break the Loudest
On paper, some of the clients I’ve sat across from seem unwavering. In the Rage After Resilience pattern, they oversee teams, homes, loans, ageing parents, and everyone’s emotions. They respond promptly, arrive early, smile courteously, and carry their lives like a well-balanced tray at a crowded wedding. The tray then falls one day. It can…

Gender-Equal Justice in Mauritius: What World Religion Day Made Me See
I walked into the World Religion Day gathering today with the cautious curiosity I reserve for anything that uses a phrase like “reconceptualising justice”. It can sound like a conference room trying to sound like a conscience. The event was organised by the Bahá’í community, and the theme was quietly daring: “Reconceptualising Justice for a…

Stop Asking “How Are You?” It’s the Loneliest Question We Still Use
I have spent years in coaching rooms, watching people arrive with polished smiles and heavy hearts, and I keep noticing the same pattern when Stop Asking “How Are You?” It’s the Loneliest Question We Still Use becomes the quiet truth beneath our everyday greetings. I have also met them outside, in cafés, corridors, at weddings,…
