Why We Get Stuck In Life And How To Get Unstuck! - Niti Nadarajah | Ep24

from Make It Work · host Sarah Wong

Niti Nadarajah is a mom of 2 based in Melbourne, Australia. Born to Indian migrant parents, she nailed it in school, earned herself a law degree, and climbed the corporate ladder to become Senior Counsel at a big multinational. But despite all that, she felt stuck and uninspired. So, she took a leap and stepped off the corporate treadmill. Today, she is a freelance legal counsel, coach, and passionate advocate for empowering women, helping them "to get unstuck". She is passionate about DEI work, supporting moms returning to work, as well as those who have suffered pregnancy loss.  In this episode, Niti and I chat about: 🌟 How Niti transitioned from a full-time legal career to freelance counsel and the trade-offs she had to accept while building a business to empower women. 🌟 How her Asian upbringing impacted her parenting and how this shapes her advice for other women. 🌟 How Niti helps women get "unstuck" and her number one advice for those feeling stuck in their personal or professional lives. 🌟 The power of sharing personal stories and vulnerability to empower women and create meaningful change.
