I’m Monita Rajpal, a former CNN anchor who spent two decades in the fast-paced, exhilarating world of journalism. From interviewing world leaders to sharing stories with celebrities, I had a front-row seat to some of the most significant events and fascinating individuals of our time.
​
On the surface, it seemed like I had it all—a successful career, global travel, and the respect of my peers. But behind the camera, I was grappling with internal turmoil, questioning my path and my purpose. Despite my achievements, I felt a persistent longing for something more—something authentic and deeply personal.
​
Throughout my career, I had the unique opportunity to ask some of the most creative and influential people a simple yet profound question: “What does it take to live a good life?” Their insights were enlightening, but they also sparked a deeper introspection within me. I realized that living a good life isn’t about external success; it’s about finding the courage to step into the unknown, to define success on your own terms, and to create a life that truly feels right.
​
This realisation led me to transition from journalism to personal development coaching. I wanted to help women navigate their own journeys, to find their own answers to the questions I had once asked. As your coach, I bring the curiosity of a journalist and the empathy of someone who has walked the path of self-discovery. I am here to listen to your story, to ask the right questions, and to work with you to feel confident, empowered, and secure with who you are.
​
Whether you're at a crossroads, feeling stuck, seeking to be a more effective leader, or aiming to elevate your life, I'm here to help you gain clarity and live with intention. Together, we’ll create a path forward that’s aligned with your values, empowering you to build a life that’s not just successful, but also meaningful and fulfilling.
