MY STORY OF CHANGE

Hi! I’m Dharmita and I’m the founder of Brainrichment.

My story of change began in early 2020, just as the COVID-19 crisis gripped our lives and turned our world inside out. What began as a brief pause from life grew into a life changing experience and deep awakening within me. I took some time to reflect on my life, on my journey and on my passion and purpose in life.

Where was I going? What did I want to be known for? What value was I adding to my life and to the lives of others? Was I living life to my true potential and was I content with it?​

While reflecting, I realised that I wasn’t being true to myself and those around me  – I was constantly conforming to societal and cultural beliefs, living to the perception of what I thought others wanted me to be, convincing myself, without questioning if this was what I wanted for my future. It dawned on me as to how am I raising my kids and the generation of tomorrow. That wasn’t me, and I did not want to be defined by this. 

I needed to make a shift in my life. I needed to start taking charge of my life to enable the life I truly wanted for myself. I started by quitting my job in the midst of this pandemic. (Crazy I know, right, but that’s how adamant I was to living my true life. And of course I thought about all the necessary things before doing so ). I then started planting all the necessary seeds of learning and growth that I needed for where I was headed with my life. I started being more mindful and purposeful about my thoughts and actions, and started living life on purpose. This is how Brainrichment was born!

This life changing moment brought about a wave of positivity in me. I now have more meaning and purpose in life, able to live life to my fullest.​

How and what you feed your attitude is how you take on the world. Many of the coaching principles and structures I have learnt over the years will guide you to develop this mindset too.

WHAT DRIVES ME

Being in the presence of people, inspiring behavioural change and helping others discover their higher purpose is what gave me the “umff” for life. My own reflective journey re-affirmed my purpose to transform peoples’ lives with lasting impact for their future. With this purpose set out, I set my goal on establishing my coaching career through Brainrichment.​

Today, I feel free, I feel present and I feel able to fully appreciate my life. I am a wife to an incredibly supportive husband and a mother to  two kids; a curious, adventurous 4 year old boy and a feisty, zestful 1 year old girl. I am also a daughter, sister, friend, coach, colleague and confidante to many others around me. I am now a woman who lives life with purpose, unapologetically and unequivocally just me, being authentically me. 

MY EXPERTISE

My strength in the workplace has always centred around collaborating with others. With over 16 years of consulting experience predominantly at Accenture, I am an experienced transformational change management expert covering leadership development, cultural transformation and performance management.​

More broadly though, I have always had a deep interest in personal development, coaching, neuroscience and inspiring behavioural change in individuals.​
