What does a woman in survival mode look like?





- Health last. 
- Addicted to instant gratification. 
- Juggling what she can and probably cant handle.
But smiling through it all (in public). 

But when she is alone, just with herself..well..(sigh)

But I am grateful to this past version of me because she kept going even on days when she couldn’t move. 

Never look at your yesterday
With eyes full of hate. 
It is only that ‘yesterday-you’,
That trusted herself enough,
To walk on the unknown path,
In an unfamiliar territory. 
Inspite of the doubt
Inspite of the fear
Inspite of the hard-wired conditioning of ‘I can’t’,
She walked,
She moved,
She crawled,
She ran
And led you to where you are. 
Thank her everyday. 
And now, it’s upto you,
to walk, to move, to run,
To pause, to breathe, 
For the sake of
‘Tomorrow-you’. 


Sending you lots of love and patience for your own self. ❤️

As a coach, I’ve seen this time and again;

when you stop chasing external validation and start pausing to notice your own strengths, confidence naturally builds itself. 

#aparnagautam #careercoach #lifecoach #buildingconfidence

Feels like a dream. 


When we work on our mental and physical health, the changes aren’t always what we expect.

It’s not just the body that transforms - it’s your energy, your presence, your mindset, and even the way you show up for the people you love. ✨

Pause for a moment and ask yourself: Which small shift in your life could create the biggest ripple for your growth?

Comment below - I’d love to hear your first small step toward your transformation. 🤍

I go through the same route every day where a lot of thorns & nails are on the pathway. 

Every time I go through that route, I get badly injured. 



I yell at the road.

But the next day, I go through the same route. 

I dont even wear shoes. 

I blame the road immensely for hurting me. 

I hate it for causing me all these wounds. 

I get frustrated as to why the road is not changing & turning into a bed of grass and roses. 

But then again keep going through the same route

In fact most of the times I dont even give myself time to heal.. 

.

This post is not about a road or thorns. 

If a face or a situation appeared in your mind, 

while reading this post, 

then you crucially need to create boundaries in that relationship or environment,

for your own sanity which is THE MOST PRECIOUS asset for you. 

You are welcome. 🫂❤️

P.S. Changing anyone is not your job. Hoping for decades that someone will change while you continue to be in the sabotage loop is exactly that - self sabotage. We deserve more kindness than that from our own self.

I haven’t posted on my page here for more than 20 days…

Not because I didn’t have ideas.
Not because I lost interest.
But because… I genuinely needed a pause.

The last few weeks have been intense - professionally and personally. As a Career Growth Specialist and Life Coach, I’m often the one holding space for others… helping them find clarity, build confidence, and push forward.

But this time, I needed to hold space for myself.

There were days I opened LinkedIn, stared at the blinking cursor, and closed it again. I wasn’t ready to “perform.” I didn’t want to post something just because the algorithm expects consistency.

I wanted to be honest. With myself. With my journey.

In this pause, I reflected deeply - on the kind of impact I want to create, the energy I bring into my work, and whether I’m walking the same growth path I guide others through.

And you know what? The silence helped.
It gave me clarity. It reconnected me with my ‘why.’

We often talk about growth as this upward, unstoppable momentum. But sometimes, growth happens in quiet corners - away from the noise, when no one’s watching. 

If you’ve been in a season of stillness, please know: it doesn’t mean you’re stuck. It might just mean you’re becoming. 

Today, I’m showing up here not because I have to… but because I want to. From a real, grounded place. ❤️

Here’s to honouring the pauses as much as the progress.

#careercoach #lifecoach #aparnagautam

Wishing you THAT level of self-awareness that in moments of being triggered, you are still able to see your reaction patterns. 

This is your friendly reminder that you cannot change someone who doesnt want to change but you can create distance for your emotional well-being. THAT is in your hand. 

For eg. you cannot consume something poisonous and expect it to not hurt you, just because you are requesting nicely. 

Now read that again!

#careercoach #lifecoach #aparnagautam

I am looking for 15 working professionals (including those seeking a job) who are done struggling with: 

1. Self-doubt
2. Procrastination
3. Feeling of being stuck in their life and career. 

Individuals who are not able to market themselves and land the right job opportunities.

Individuals who are now ready to say "Enough is enough, I know I can do more. I know this is not my best."

Are you this person? Do you want to find out what life feels like when you are not afraid? 

Do you want to know what your career feels like when you are clear, confident & ready to take charge? 

Imagine how life would be when you know every day where you are headed. 

Imagine having clarity about your career goals and moving towards it with determination & passion.

Imagine not feeling the need to compare yourself with others as you are now focussed completely on designing your life & career. 

Are you the one I am looking for to coach & hand hold over a journey of 8 weeks so that you can start experiencing life & career growth in its true form?

We spend so much time reading other people’s behaviour 

Why did they say that? Why did they ignore me? Why didn’t they appreciate my effort?

But rarely do we pause and build a relationship with the one person whose opinion truly matters; the one in the mirror.

When you start seeing yourself clearly, the world’s reflections stop defining you.

Their silence doesn’t mean you’re not worthy.

Their anger doesn’t make you unlovable.

Their distance doesn’t make you less deserving.

Self-awareness is not about analysing others — it’s about anchoring in you.

If this resonates, take a moment today to connect with the person in your mirror - without judgement.


That’s where confidence begins.

When performance culture becomes survival culture - people break.

The tragic news of an Ola Electric engineer taking his own life is not just another corporate headline.
It’s a mirror.

Behind every KPI, sprint, and Slack message is a human being who’s slowly unravelling under pressure - while smiling through the “hustle.”

Over 15 years of coaching working professionals, I’ve seen this pattern repeat:

- Unrealistic workloads masked as “ownership.”
- Burnout reframed as “hunger.”
- Silence rewarded more than speaking up.

This isn’t high performance. It’s quiet collapse.

Work-life balance isn’t a luxury - it’s a safeguard.
A culture that glorifies 24×7 grind and dismisses boundaries as “low commitment” is playing a dangerous game - with people’s lives.

It’s time corporate India asked harder questions:

- Can success and sanity coexist here?
- Are we measuring output or endurance?
- Do our leaders know how to listen - really listen?

Because when people have to break to be heard, the system has already failed them.

As a coach, I’ve seen transformation happen when organisations start valuing sustainability over speed - and when individuals start saying “no” without guilt.

Let’s not wait for another obituary to start the conversation.

Let’s build workplaces that don’t just make headlines - they make humans thrive.

“Should I just quit this toxic workplace?”


If this question has been running through your mind lately, you’re not alone.

Every week, I coach professionals who feel trapped between two hard choices:
stay in a draining environment that’s killing their confidence, or
walk out without a plan and risk their financial stability.

Here’s the truth: you don’t need to quit immediately.
You need to plan your exit strategically.

Here’s the framework I teach my clients to transition out of toxicity with clarity and control:

1️⃣ Detach emotionally.
Do your work well, but stop letting your boss’s behaviour dictate your peace.

2️⃣ Build your bridge.
Update your LinkedIn, reconnect with mentors, upskill, and strengthen your personal brand while you’re still employed.

3️⃣ Search smart.
Don’t mass-apply. Network intentionally. Position your value so opportunities find you.

4️⃣ Rebuild confidence daily.
Toxic cultures chip away at self-belief. Confidence isn’t rebuilt overnight, it’s restored through reflection, small wins, and support.

5️⃣ Redefine your goal.
This isn’t escape. It’s elevation.
You’re not leaving a job, you’re upgrading your career trajectory.

Leaving a toxic workplace is not a failure.
It’s a promotion to self-respect.

What’s the hardest part about planning your exit from a toxic job, emotional drain, financial fear, or loss of confidence?
Let’s start a real conversation in the comments.
