  • "I take back a lot of experiences with lots of learning. Unknown aspects of self and behavior have come out very strongly for me. The journey has just started from here. It makes an individual think why the exposure to others perspective is so important. I feel like a changed person Her sessions brought to me an awareness about my old ideas and beliefs Behaviour change is not an easy task for anyone. The session helped in linking behaviour to my personal & professional life Here is a program that tells me what I am, opens (or dissects) me and at the same time gives me a direction. It tells me how can I stop existing and start flourishing both in professional and personal life. Mukta’s programme helped me in understanding myself, my style and the level of my self-deception. This programme is experiential and facilitated in a manner that it feels more like a self-initiative to change myself and move towards sound behavior through a journey of continuous critique and positive change. I own the change in me."
