I am an executive coach who empowers high-achieving professionals to elevate their leadership, embrace transitions, and thrive through change.

Change is hard, especially for high achievers who hold themselves to exceptionally high standards and value stability while often grappling with fear of failure.  

However, transitions don’t have to be daunting. Coaching can provide the tools and mindset to confidently navigate change with purpose and joy.

As your coach, I will partner with you through life's twists and turns, transforming these transitions into opportunities for growth and fulfillment. Through one-on-one coaching and tailored leadership development programming, I foster holistic personal and professional growth through every step of the journey.

My Story:

My story is filled with many unique chapters. In short, over the course of my career I’ve been a consultant, physician, military officer, healthcare leader, medical education leader, and professional coach -- often wearing three or more of these hats at the same time. Along the way, I’ve found the most joy in providing inspiring leadership through change and helping high-achieving individuals successfully navigate transitions and challenges. I look forward to utilizing my deep expertise in leadership, professional development, and coaching to help you elevate your leadership and thrive through change.

Today marks 13 years of marriage to my husband, Nealanjon (Neal) Das.

Our origin story breaks every workplace romance rule. He was my attending during residency, though the dynamic was far from romantic — I actually considered him the second scariest attending in the entire program. We didn’t start dating until after I graduated and stayed on as staff, and we fell in love against the backdrop of Hawaii.

But this post isn’t about how we met. It’s about a moment that changed everything.

During COVID, when I was physically and emotionally depleted but still pushing through, Neal had the courage to tell me I wasn’t OK. He also suggested I try the free physician peer coaching offered through my institution.

That one conversation opened the door to getting the support I needed and eventually led me to my purpose in coaching.

If not for that suggestion, I doubt I would have sought help on my own. The physician mentality of pushing through at all costs, never showing weakness, and always putting work and patients first, was deeply ingrained — even as a leader who regularly suggested wellbeing resources to others.

Over the years, we’ve navigated two children, two cats, seven moves, parental illness, breast cancer, a craniotomy, six job changes, and two major career transitions, and I can’t imagine a more supportive partner every step of the way.

In leadership circles, we celebrate mentors and sponsors, but we rarely acknowledge the partners who make our work possible — the ones who see us clearly even when we can’t see ourselves, and love us enough to tell us hard truths.

Neal, I’m grateful for you beyond words. Here’s to lucky 13 and many more.

𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮 𝘄𝗿𝗮𝗽.

After a few days of recovery and reflection, I’m finally putting words to an unforgettable weekend.

Our inaugural 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘞𝘢𝘺 𝘙𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 brought eleven women physicians together from across the country, representing different specialties and career stages, for a meaningful blend of leadership development, well-being, and community in Chadds Ford, PA.

When Diane W. Shannon, MD, MPH and I created this retreat, our guiding intention was this: 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬𝘦𝘯𝘥, 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵. And based on what participants shared, many did.

The magic happened in the small group conversations, the honest stories shared over meals, and the space to pause and reconnect with what matters most. Many participants shared that they left with more clarity, stronger boundaries, new tools, and renewed confidence. Perhaps most powerfully, they left feeling part of a supportive community of women physicians and reminded that they aren’t alone.

To the remarkable women who joined us, thank you. Your openness and generosity shaped the entire experience. And sincere thanks to the Fairville Inn, InJest Events, and Laura Robinson for helping bring this retreat to life.

We’re already planning the next Lead Your Way Retreat for October 2026 at the same location. ✨ If you want priority updates as we finalize plans, feel free to reach out.

“𝗜 𝗻𝗲𝗴𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱.”

I recently caught up with a former coaching client, a woman physician I worked with nearly three years ago as she was preparing to negotiate a new contract. Back then, we focused on the fundamentals: knowing what she wanted, asking for it clearly, and trusting her own value.

Fast forward to today. Because of a family move, she needed to navigate another job transition. When we spoke a few months ago, I encouraged her to consider building in some time off between roles (if financially feasible) to create space for her and her young family to settle and reset.

She confidently negotiated for that and so much more, including:
✔️ A start date of her choosing, with several months off in between
✔️ A significantly higher salary than the initial offer
✔️ A signing bonus
✔️ An administrative role and title with protected time to do it well

She was glowing as she shared the news and expressed gratitude for the groundwork we laid together years ago.

She used the skills she built through coaching to design the job that fits the season she’s in now.

That’s the staying power of coaching: an empowered mindset, tools that last, and a career built with intention.

Last January, my family bought this “unplug” box on Etsy. We came up with the tagline together: 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘞𝘪-𝘍𝘪.

It’s been sitting on a shelf most of the year, but that phrase has become our family code for “Put down the device and be present with us.”

On a recent Saturday, I set an intention to be more present, so we finally put the box to use and ended up having an impromptu digital detox.

What unfolded felt almost magical and reminded me that connection doesn’t always require more time — just more intention.

Last Tuesday, my 12-year-old daughter was almost hit by a car while crossing to her bus stop. The stop sits on a busy road with poor visibility, made even more challenging by recent construction that has changed traffic patterns near our home. Needless to say, it was a frightening moment for both of us.

At 7:30 a.m., I called the school. By pure chance, the 6th grade principal, Ms. Katie King, picked up. She listened, empathized, and immediately connected me with the district’s transportation director, Mr. Tom Jenkins.

When I couldn’t reach Mr. Jenkins by phone, I sent an email. At 4:30 p.m., he called me back, agreed the situation was unsafe, and took immediate action. By the next morning, the bus stop had been moved to the end of our driveway.

Two days later, Ms. King followed up to express her concern and make sure everything had been resolved.

Listening, empathy, decisive action, accountability, follow through, and strong communication skills were present in every step of this experience.

The entire situation left my daughter feeling safe, our family feeling heard, and me grateful to be part of a district where compassionate, responsive, values-driven leadership isn’t just talked about – it’s practiced and role modeled.

I am proud to be part of Kennett Consolidated School District and so appreciative of the leadership team at Kennett Middle School.

𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻?
You might not need more hours — you might need stronger boundaries.

I’ve had boundaries on the brain this week. They’ve come up in multiple coaching sessions and were also a key theme in my recent leadership retreat.

When the topic arises, it can feel a little nebulous. Here’s how I frame it with clients:

Boundaries aren’t about shutting people out. They’re about giving yourself permission to decide who and what gets access to your energy.

𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂:
→ Protect your well-being and mental space
→ Strengthen relationships through mutual respect
→ Increase focus and effectiveness at work
→ Build confidence and strengthen your leadership presence

Without them, we risk resentment, overcommitment, and exhaustion.

𝗦𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁?
Pay attention to the moments when you feel resentful or emotionally drained. Those feelings are data points — clues indicating where a boundary may be missing or unclear.

The goal isn’t to build walls; it’s to open doors with intention.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗮 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀?

But if you're a healthcare professional building a business, exploring a pivot, or interviewing for non-clinical roles, your network matters more than ever.

That’s why I’m presenting:

This Giving Tuesday, I’m supporting the Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes' Foundation 
 — an organization dedicated to protecting the mental health and wellbeing of healthcare workers.

As an Ambassador, I’ve seen the impact they make through meaningful advocacy, education, and efforts to remove the stigma around help-seeking.

If you're looking to give today, I hope you'll consider this important mission. Because when we care for the people who care for us, we strengthen the entire foundation of healthcare.

1 newspaper. 2 seconds. Infinite recall.

That’s all #Mercedes needed to win the marketing game.

No celebrity face. No massive production. No million-dollar shoot.

Just one genius idea.

They turned the front page of  The Times Of India into a Mercedes steering wheel.

And suddenly the reader wasn’t holding a newspaper… they were holding a dream.

This is the kind of marketing that doesn’t chase attention it captures emotion.

Because people don’t remember ads.

They remember how something made them feel.

And in those 2 seconds, Mercedes made millions feel: Someday, this wheel will be mine.

To every marketer, founder, and brand builder:

Big results don’t always need big budgets.

Sometimes it’s one clever idea that does the heavy lifting.

Creativity beats cost. Experience beats exposure. 

Emotion beats everything ❤️

As kids we thought… if we earn 50k salary, we’ll save 2 lakh in 4 months 😄❤️

Life felt so simple back then.

But when we grew up, the truth hit us.

Rent goes. EMIs go. Groceries go. Weekend food goes.

And at the end of the month you look at your bank balance and think… That’s it?

This #tweet reminded me of my own early days.

I once thought a job would give me freedom.
But every Monday proved me wrong.

And today when I look back… 

That childhood dream of “50k salary” feels so small.

Because I left the job, started my own thing…

and slowly turned that 50k dream into a 1CR+ business.

The lesson is simple. Life works just like money.

If you limit your mind, you limit your growth.

If you take a risk, you change your future.

If your salary maths isn’t working… maybe it’s time to write your own equation...❤️

#childhood #dreams #reality #happiness #simplicity #weekend #india

Maggi. Colgate. Tide. Lays. I grew up thinking they were ours ❤️😮


Every ad felt local. Every product sat in our kitchens like they belonged.

For years, they shaped our habits, our memories… our shelves.

But one day I paused and read the labels.

Switzerland. United States. United Kingdom.
Japan.

It stung a little. Not because they weren’t good.

But because we never asked what we were building of our own.

That’s when it hit me: India doesn’t lack talent.

We’ve just been too busy consuming to start creating.

So if you're building something a brand, a story, a small idea from your 1BHK room build it loud. 

Build it proud.

Because 10 years from now, someone else should grow up thinking your product was always theirs ❤️

5 global giants. 5 impossible beginnings.
1 reminder we all forget 🤕


YouTube wasn’t built in a fancy boardroom.
It began as a dating site.

#Samsung wasn’t a tech empire.
It was a small grocery shop.

Sony?
A radio repair corner.

IKEA?
Just a kid selling pens.

Nike?
A college project scribbled on paper.

Every story we admire today… started as something no one admired back then.

And honestly, this hit me hard.

Because when I started my own journey…

I didn’t have clarity, capital, confidence, or clients.

Just a belief that if I kept showing up,
something would happen.

And it did.

From small gigs to running funnels for top creators.

From confusion to 1CR+ revenue.

From “no idea what to do” to “thank God I started.”

This carousel is not about YouTube, Samsung or Nike.

It’s a reminder for people like us.

Massive always starts with messy. 

Clarity always comes from doing.

Dreams always begin as drafts.

If you needed a sign today… this is it.

Just start ❤️😄

Global Giants - Just Start ❤️

A client almost fired me… and I’m glad they did.


He said,
Sachin, your ads aren’t performing. I expected more.

I felt defensive.
I showed him data, charts, ROAS everything.

He replied,
I don’t care about metrics. I care about momentum.

That line changed my entire business philosophy.

I stopped focusing on proving my effort.

Started focusing on creating experience.

Instead of sending weekly reports,

I began sending short voice notes updates, strategy tweaks, next steps.

He renewed for 6 months straight.

Sometimes, clients don’t need to understand your work.

They need to feel that you understand theirs ❤️

#client #fired #business #understanding #updates #philosophy #india

I once rejected a client who offered double my fee 😄 Sounds crazy, right?....


He wanted 100+ leads a week.

But his offer wasn’t clear. His follow-up system didn’t exist.

I told him, 

Even if I bring you leads, they’ll leak out. Let’s fix the foundation first.

He refused. So I walked away.

Two months later, he came back.

This time with a better structure, better clarity, and better mindset.

We ran the campaign. He made ₹7L in 45 days.

Sometimes walking away from the wrong deal
creates space for the right kind of success.

Saying “no” isn’t rejection. It’s self-respect for your expertise ❤️

#rejection #respect #funnel #client #trust #confidence #refused #linkedin #india

The night I almost quit this business 😔 
3 AM. Laptop open....


One client refund email blinking on the screen.

Your ads didn’t work. Please cancel.

I stared at that line for 10 minutes straight.
Doubt hit hard.

Maybe I wasn’t cut out for this. Maybe I wasn’t good enough.

But the next morning, instead of quitting, I reviewed everything.

Turns out the ads weren’t bad. The offer clarity was.

I fixed it, rebuilt the page, relaunched in 48 hours.

That campaign brought ₹2.1L in 7 days.

And I realized something powerful failure doesn’t come from bad results.

It comes from stopping right before the breakthrough.

Every refund email teaches resilience if you read it with honesty, not ego....

#refund #failure #breakthrough #rebuilt #results #growth #linkedin #india #client

The client who cried on the closing call 🤕💔


She said, I’ve spent ₹4L in marketing. Everyone promised. No one delivered.

Her voice cracked. Not because of money but exhaustion.

Instead of pitching, I asked her to tell me what she truly wanted.

Not the numbers. The real need.

She said, I just want something to finally work.

We built the funnel slowly. Carefully. No rush.

In 30 days, her first ₹2.4L came in.

She called me, crying: You didn’t just fix my marketing. You fixed my belief. 

That call reminded me sometimes people aren’t paying for ads.

They’re paying for a feeling that things can get better again.

Funnel work is a skill. But restoring someone’s hope is a privilege.....

#cried #doubt #client #frustrated #funnel #marketing #viral #hope #india #linkedin

The client who almost didn’t sign… became my highest-paying one ❤️🥹


She said,
Your price is higher than the others. Why should I pay you?

Earlier, I’d start explaining: tracking, optimization, A/B testing.

This time, I said one line:
Because I don’t sell clicks. I sell clients.

She paused. Smiled. “When can we start?”

That’s when I realized people don’t need longer explanations, they need stronger conviction.

Confidence closes more deals than complexity ever will.

If you can’t sell your offer in one sentence, you don’t believe in it enough yet ✅

#confidence #results #premium #clients #sales #india

Every brand became a storyteller this Halloween 👻 and honestly, it’s marketing genius ❤️


Blinkit and Tinder teaming up over “Ghosting?” 

Parle Milano calling their bite frighteningly good.

NykaaMan turning hair fall into horror.

Even Manforce dropping the scariest “Boo” of all time.

This is what creative marketing does  it doesn’t sell a product, it sells a moment 😃

And in sales, moments create memory and memories drive conversion.

Because great ads don’t scream “buy now.”

They whisper “you’ll remember this.”

That’s the power of storytelling in marketing ❤️

#memories #halloween #storytelling #viral #viralads #scariest #genuis #india

The day my son was born, everything changed ❤️🥹


Funnels weren’t just about conversions anymore.

Late nights weren’t about hustle anymore.

Scaling wasn’t about money anymore.

It became about legacy.

When I say no to shortcuts…
When I rebuild a funnel from scratch…
When I choose patience over panic…

I do it because one day, he’ll watch.

And I want him to say: 
Papa didn’t just provide. He built.

He won’t inherit a job.
He’ll inherit clarity, courage, and choices.

This agency isn’t for clout. It’s for him.

DM “LEGACY” if you’re building for more than just yourself ❤️

#legacy #happiness #hardwork #latenights #business #papa #heartful

Every time I see this line…I remember one thing 😊 

Growth happens the moment you stop telling your marketer what to do…
and start trusting why you hired them.

When I started out, I wanted to control everything: 
every script, every ad & every creative.

And nothing worked.

The day I learned to give space to listen, to experiment, to let marketing be marketing… that’s the day the graphs finally moved.

That’s how we built 1Cr+ revenue. That’s how we scaled creators.

That’s how funnels started converting like magic.

Because marketing isn’t a checklist. It’s a feeling. It’s psychology.

It’s the courage to try something that looks “weird” today but becomes “viral” tomorrow.

So here’s a small reminder…

If you trust the chef you’ll enjoy the food.

If you trust the marketer you’ll enjoy the growth.

Let them do what they do best. Then watch what happens❤️
