19 AUGUST2022WHY WAS IT IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO HELP RAISE MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND ENCOURAGE OUTREACH FOR PROFESSIONAL HELP OR OTHER SUPPORTS? THROW SOME LIGHT ON AANCHAL VASH TRAINING.Unfortunately, my twin brother Tushar passed away by suicide in 2016. It was at that point that I realized that although we all need money to sustain our lifestyle, there is more to life than just improving our financial health. As a result, I resigned from my work right away and obtained my Mental Health First Aid certification from the Mental Health Commission of Canada. Reach Out Together, a non-profit mental health organization was born out of that decision. It was through this foundation that I learned so much about the non-profit sector, as well as the best ways to aid and support those who are struggling with mental health. After that, I became a Canfield Certified Success Trainer and founded Aanchal Vash Training. My many endeavors in life have led me to this point, where I want to encourage both success and fulfillment. Therefore, no matter where I work, I'm motivated by a desire to make a difference in the lives of others IN YOUR OPINION WHAT HAVE BEEN SOME OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT MILESTONES THAT YOU HAVE ACHIEVED SO FAR IN YOUR PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY? WHAT HAS BEEN THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND YOUR SUCCESS AS A PROFESSIONAL?To be quite honest, I created my first company with both of my late brothers. Since my older brother was an avid reader, we decided to create a library as our first business when I was seven years old. And Tushar, my twin, and I became his employees; it was the first company we managed jointly, charging a little fee to our friends who visited our library. Our next venture was a paper and sticker firm, which we launched at the tender age of 10 or 11. We learned to manufacture and sell booklets. Our compensation was two products each week from whatever Tushar and I handmade. That was the beginning of our entrepreneurial life. When I was 13 and living in Nigeria, my older brother Prashant passed away. And as a means to cope, I began to paint and sketch a little. I now realize that this was a kind of creative art therapy. I don't know why, but I began painting cartoons because I enjoyed how they made me feel. In the end, I began selling my paintings to individuals in my school since my friends were interested. That was the beginning of a third journey. Then when I moved to Canada I established Vash Media, and the non-profit organization Reach Out Together.The driving force behind my success would be to reject rejection and be willing to learn, self-improve, and grow. I truly believe in being service-oriented and adding value to people's lives. As long as I keep reminding myself of my purpose, I am motivated to show up and do the work.YOU ARE ALSO A BEST-SELLING AUTHOR. TELL US MORE ABOUT YOUR LITERARY PURSUITS.

Currently, I am working on my new book, Ongoing Success and Wellbeing: A Daily Guide to Cultivate Fulfillment in the Pursuit of Achievement. I'm incredibly excited about this book. I've spent a great deal of time writing this book because I've seen that everyone talks about achievement, but few discuss well-being strategies what wellbeing is and how to maintain it? How do you look after another person who isn't doing so well? The focus of this book is on how to achieve long-term success while also maintaining positive mental health.
