Give Us An Overview Of Deepti Pathak Company. How Did You Discover Your Calling, I.E. The Field Of Leadership And Personal Mastery?

I was a leader at the young age of 26, managing a team of over 60 associates, and that is when I discovered that my true strength lies in motivating and nurturing people to become the best versions of themselves.

With each passing year in my corporate journey, I came across both good and bad leaders. My personal experiences and the growing need for professional leadership and business coaches in India inspired me to build a career around my passion.

What Motivated You To Take The Entrepreneurial Route And Establish A Company Of Your Own? What Was The Transition Like From Being In The Corporate World To Becoming An Entrepreneur?
After a two year long battle with depression following the loss of my mother to a traumatic accident, I started my journey of self-discovery, healing and personal development at the young age of 18. I spent my 20s and early 30s rising rapidly through the corporate world. And in 2018 I decided to pursue my passion and launched my people development firm.

“Purpose can guide life decisions, influence behavior, shape goals, and create meaning for life”

I am on a mission to empower ambitious individuals, leaders, change makers and institutions, to help them surpass all their limitations and support them on their path to creating a better world.

The corporate world and entrepreneurship are poles apart. Bravery is at the heart of entrepreneurship and the willingness to believe in your dreams when no one else does. Over the last three years I've worn many hats and what I realized in the process is that one can do anything that they decided to do. Purpose can guide life decisions, influence behavior, shape goals, and create meaning for life.

That's where I come in. I empower leaders and ambitious individuals to 10X their Personal Power, through a unique array of coaching methodologies and ground breaking studies of human psychology that actually work and help them achieve their personal and professional goals faster and easier than they ever imagined.

Given The Demanding Nature Of Your Role As A Business Leader And Entrepreneur, How Do You Strike A Balance Between Work And Personal Life?
One of the key skills needed to balance one’s life is discipline. And self-discipline begins with the mastery of your thoughts. If you don’t control what you think, you don’t control what you do. Self-discipline is the only skill one needs to develop any other skill. And continuous learning and mastery of this skill has helped me find balance in all aspects of life.

Although The Corporate World Sees Several Women In The Initial Ranks, Yet There Is A Dearth Of Women Representation In The Top Leadership Roles. How Can This Situation Be Rectified In The Near Future? What Would Your Advice Be For Women Aspiring To Become Entrepreneurs And Business Leaders?
The simplest and most obvious way to shift this balance is to empower more women.

The truth is, people are not born with outstanding leadership skills. Leadership qualities are like a muscle that needs to be strengthened. And we all have the potential to activate these skills. The future is not a place that we are going to. The future is a place that we create and organisations must actively invest in leadership development initiatives for women employees.

The truth is, if we can love and nurture our relationships with the passion, sincerity and discipline that we do. We can also love our career and personal growth with the same strength. Women have everything it takes to have it all and have it all at the same time.
