I teach leaders how to
empower their teams to:
• Overcome and reframe adversity.
• Transform self-defeating mindsets.
• Discover and leverage hidden strengths.
• Harness the power of self-compassion.
• Boost confidence and self-worth.
• Unleash creativity in surprising ways.
• Embolden their authentic self.
I specialize in shifting perspectives, enabling individuals to unleash their buried potential and embrace life with confidence and empowered self-worth. I teach how to reframe adversity, defeat self-sabotage, and ignite creative potential to become energized, proactive, and collaborative. And happier!
Energized teams become driving forces in the organization, unleashing their full passionate potential to excel.
Through talks, personalized coaching, and evidence-based strategies, I empower individuals with a growth mindset and a toolbox of strategies that I have learned from years as an educator, a filmmaker, and a life of personal medical ordeals. I cultivate empowering self-narratives, mine inner strengths, boost self-worth, and fuel creative potential.
16 years as a professor, two decades as a creative professional, and a lifetime as a navigator of a malfunctioning body.
Rajeev nirmalakhandan
Hi, I'm Raj.
My head is screwed on. Literally. I have screws in my neck. And rods. So I'm partially recyclable. I had to learn how to walk five times in my life. Once as a toddler, then four times after each spinal surgery. I can't do my own stunts. I grew up with a sense of brokenness and felt like a robot running low on batteries.
But it wasn't my disability that disabled me. What truly disabled me and robbed me of my potential and happiness was the story that I had crafted about myself. A story of not-enoughness.
Then I reframed my adversity and harnessed an empowering story of who I was. I discovered the power of courage, compassion, creativity, and confidence. I saw a profound change in my life.
I am now driven to help others break free of what holds them back so that they can find the strongest version of themselves.
Let's unleash powerful potential. I want to help you become MORE. More engaging. More intentional. More creative. More confident. More fulfilled. More YOU.
SpeaKing & Trainings
Empowered individuals, Powerful teams
I specialize in amplifying the strengths of strong teams and minimizing conflicts to create a powerful and productive environment. Deep within every employee / student lies vast untapped potential waiting to be awakened. Sadly, many work cultures fail to foster their growth or inspire them to collaborate effectively, missing out on the opportunity to leverage each other's assets. My primary goal is to nurture these dormant seeds of potential and ignite transformative growth by cultivating a culture that supports and empowers individuals. By unlocking the golden assets of motivation, dedication, accountability, and leadership, we will witness the flourishing of teamwork and the emergence of empowered and driven contributors within your team.
Adversity transformed to Creative potential
Merely navigating through adversities is not enough. I will teach them how to confront and conquer with unwavering resilience and learn effective strategies to transform obstacles into opportunities for growth and innovation. By embracing these obstacles, they will tap into their inner strength and gain the confidence to offer bold ideas, seize opportunities, and become forward thinkers. Together, we will foster a mindset that sees challenges as valuable insights and use it as a catalyst to fuel creative potential.
You are more than What you think you are.
More times than not we hold ourselves back more than the world does. But we can learn how to shatter self-made barriers and break free of self-sabotage. I will empower you to unleash your full potential and become influential catalysts in shaping your own lives. Once you break free from the scars of adversity and escape the burden of self-sabotage, you will discover the power of confidence and self-pride which will become the fuel for you to drive forward with profound magnetism and influence.
