Former Associate Professor

These coaching sessions with Dr. Shivdasini Amin have been priceless as I was dying a slow death and now I am reviving amicably each day, removing those layers of negative emotions which had manifested themselves as disease in my body. Each life coaching session has strengthened my belief in myself, and has taught me to love myself. These changes have slowly started to reflect on my family. I have been able to stop the blame game. I now have been able to improve my relationships and effectively lead myself in personal and professional fronts. My friends and colleagues have seen the change and transformation in me and are amazed at the same. She kindly and gently led me out of my cocoon and now I am in a position to help others find their way out. I am happier and freer than I've been in the last 20 years of my life. The journey from “hopeless to hopeful” has been possible because of her commitment as a formidable coach. I now look forward to dealing with situations rather than avoiding or stressing over them. I can only wish I had discovered Life Coaching with Shivdasini a long time ago. Thanks for being such a fantastic coach for you have been a terrific support, champion and motivator for me.

I’ve been going to shiv ma’am for the past 2 years now. I heard a lot about her from 2 of my friends and something told me I had to go to her! To be honest the first couple of sessions, we were just breaking ice, there was progress but it wasn’t anything huge. But again, for some reason, I had a gut feeling this will just take some time to kick in and I was absolutely right about it! The click happened in about 3rd or 4th session with ma’am, and it’s been clicking ever since! I think what I love the most about ma’am is that, when I need her, regardless of the short notice she makes time for me! and I’m so grateful to her for that! And another thing that I absolutely love about her is the way she conducts her sessions! They never felt like they were time bound or rushed! She takes all the time necessary to get me to the safe space I need to be in before we end the session.  Thank you soo soo much ma’am! So grateful to have you as my mentor! 

Shivdasini and I connected so that I could work on some personal issues as well as break a few patterns that have been repeating themselves. As we worked together, she provided candid feedback gently and with compassion – key requisites for a life coach. At no time did I feel that I was being judged or presumptions were being made about what I was dealing with. While I had reached out to Shivdasini for a specific issue I was dealing with, Shivdasini encouraged me to deal with a whole range of issues that I saw were inter-related. The personal insights that I have gained during our association have helped me alter deeply held negative beliefs and replace them with more empowering beliefs. I find myself able to deal with the same situations in a much better and more productive fashion than before.

Shivdasini is a compassionate human being and as a coach is personable, intuitive, a good listener, practical and someone who works with her clients patiently till they find their insights and take themselves to the next empowering level in whatever they’re dealing with. Shivdasini commits of her time and energy completely for her clients and is unwavering in her commitment to them. As a Coach myself, I find Shivdasini to be someone I’d recommend to anyone looking for a powerful coach for any aspect of their lives.

Employee Experience Transformation, Global HR Accenture

Shivdasini worked with me for a few months now and I have been able to overcome some fundamental blocks, that I wasn’t even conscious of and already have take-aways that will be with me for life.

I think the most fundamental change in me here was my ability to apply the law of attraction and ask myself what would I like to attract - and make conscious choices of interactions with the Universe. As a result, I have been able to handle conflict with people in hierarchy and opposite gender - in the recent weeks, which has always been my Achilles heel. I would tend to get timid and give up when faced with this combination in the past. And as always, when you start on a journey, the Universe helps, and as a result I have had so many chances to apply what I have learnt. I am getting better - have moved to a 7 from a 2 on a scale of 10 in under 3 months. Isn’t that great!!

The second shift, out of many that I could write about, came around emotional resilience and ability to handle stress. I was able to identify the root cause of my stress at work - My need for perfection and a desire for greatness was driving me to get into things that weren’t a part of my role at all at times. Today I have become so conscious of this that I actively manage the boundaries of my role and my function at work. As a result, I am doing much better on emotional resilience and my energies are getting focused utilisation. All in all, I am taking better care of myself, by not allowing myself to fall into the trap of perfectionism and getting burnt out as a result. I would give myself a 7/10 against a 1/10 earlier. Trust me, I am still amazed at my blind spot here.

Shivdasini mam is a naturally wonderful teacher and undoubtedly makes an amazing coach. I reached out to her when I was in a deep need for healing and she hand held me throughout the process. I realized the amount of stress & trauma I had stored within myself and she helped me work on all of them patiently. It wasn't a linear journey, but she understood completely.

I am at a much better mental space now and can't thank her enough for holding my back. I used to make notes in every session and refer them whenever I feel the need to be guided or get back my inner voice. Thank you, ma’am.

Sr Manager PaisaBazaar

Shivdasini provided crucial guidance to me while I was transitioning from B-School to the corporate world, and while moving from one company to another as I am climbing the ladder. She has guided me in understanding the metrics that told me if my career was reaching the financial and administrative goals that I set for myself, and what adjustments and changes I might want to make to attain future business, financial and personal goals. Maybe most importantly, the result of my work with Shivdasini is that I have grown in confidence from a young man to today where I am successfully heading a region for a top automobile MNC. Along the way I have also found my soul mate and nothing could have made me happier.

Shivdasini’s approach to coaching is not just about the professional, but takes all of my goals in life into account in helping me make the best decisions and to adapt and adopt the best approaches for my current life situation. The best testament to her coaching may be that as issues come up that I want input on, her voice is inside my head telling me the questions to ask, how to approach the issue, and asking me what results I want from the outcome and how I would achieve them. Her coaching style is to continually ask questions to help me work through the issue -- she listens exceptionally well, and encourages me to talk through the challenges we all face but are afraid to discuss. The use of PCMK methodologies has always given me breakthroughs that have helped me raise my standards and life. The powerful left and right brained questions help me understand the situation and see it clearly to formulate my plans. Then she provides her perspective as a mentor. She is professional, thoughtful, experienced, grounded and real.

My coach helped me untangle many mental knots that I had regarding my self-esteem. It is through her consistent and self-sustaining guidance that I learned to develop a newer perspective and a wider outlook towards life, relationships and more so about my own self.

Even now after nearly 5 years it is her insights and my newly developed sense of self that helps me change my perspective when I hit a dead end in some aspects of my life. 

Much Love and Gratitude

Dr. Shivdasini Singh Amin has helped me on multiple topics, importantly in restoring the self-esteem, confidence, restoring trust in relationships with co-worker and family members. Her coaching helped me in managing stress, perform more efficiently at work and collaborate better. I am pleased to receive a positive transformation in my life.

I came to know about life coaching in the year 2012. I couldn’t find answers to a lot of things in my life. More than that I had conflicted feelings toward seemingly normal day to day events. I did one session with Shivdasini Mam and found myself able to name my feelings/emotions and the underlying causes. Most importantly it helped me connect with my own subconscious thoughts, dormant yet impacting memories of the childhood, and the emotions that informed while struggling with adulthood. 

Coaching gave me answers to stuff that I thought was pretty irrelevant but was altering me with each passing event. Shivdasini Mam gave me a platform to open up my unresolved thoughts while methodically navigating through various coaching techniques. I liked becoming vulnerable in sessions as these sessions gave me safety and strength at the same time. Since 2012, I have taken multiple sessions with Mam, each time becoming more one with myself. I highly recommend coaching with Shivdasini Mam because human emotions have so many layers which are impossible to untangle on your own…

The sessions were very helpful during my distress life situations. They helped me in identifying my innermost fears and in releasing my sub-conscious negative energies. Also they are the important part of my spiritual journey. 

I am so blessed to have a coach like her and will always seek her guidance and blessings in future as well.

Unlocking the next achievement or replaying the level because of a failure is quite straight forward in the games we have been used to. But the game of life throws too many choices professionally and personally to decide and take a leap of faith in ourselves. I found myself in such cross roads and the sessions with Shiv Ma'am have really helped in questioning my motivations, my values and my goals. It helped getting a structure to put my thoughts together and I am content with the outcome and the progress we have made. Sometimes we have all the tools we need but need a helping hand to guide us through the process and I am thankful that Shiv ma'am has helped me and several others with it.
