“I secured a job with a 20% bump and, more importantly, the next opportunity aligned with my career aspirations.”

I had the opportunity to work with Karishma through her 1:1 coaching program in the highly competitive 2024 life science market in the USA. Prior to signing up, I was searching for my next leadership role. I was feeling frustrated because I would make it to the interview rounds, but I was stumbling at the critical final step and they weren't converting to job offers. Over the three months I worked with her, I was able to: (1) refine my resume to highlight my leadership abilities and career achievements; (2) build crisp narratives around multiple success stories for behavioral and situational interviews; (3) go through mock interviews that built my confidence and continuously improved my interviewing skills; and (4) secure a job with a 20% bump and, more importantly, the next opportunity aligned with my career aspirations. She was empathetic, supportive and provided critical guidance throughout the process. Karishma's coaching helped me raise my game and put my best foot forward! I would recommend her to anyone looking to navigate a complex job market.

“I left feeling motivated and confident to aim higher and take on the next chapter of my career.”

I reached out to Karishma when I was considering a move in my career and wanted to understand the best way to position myself for it. Karishma is extremely patient and takes the time to understand an individual’s personality and career goals. She then highlights your strengths and solves for your weaknesses by providing specific tools to help you build on your existing skill sets and achieve your career goals. Working with her, not only did I pick up some useful tools to help me in my career aspirations, but I also left feeling motivated and confident to aim higher and take on the next chapter of my career.

“I started showing up differently — less reactive, more deliberate. I stopped deferring where I shouldn’t have.”

I’ve been in leadership long enough to know the difference between a coach who gives you frameworks and one who actually understands how people work. I came to Karishma in 2024 with specific challenges and some patterns in my own behavior I knew were getting in my way but hadn’t fully examined. She didn’t offer generic advice. She worked with what was real — my actual calendar, my upcoming conversations, the dynamics I was dealing with. And she was direct about what she observed, including things I hadn’t said out loud myself. What shifted wasn’t just tactical. I started showing up differently — less reactive, more deliberate. I stopped deferring where I shouldn’t have. She essentially does for your career what good therapy does for your thinking — without the detour. If you’re a senior professional who knows something is off but can’t quite locate it, she’s worth a serious conversation.

“She helped me recognize my strengths, reframe my mindset and guided me through focused interview preparation during my career transition post maternity.”

I had the pleasure of working with Karishma during my career transition post maternity and her support was truly invaluable. She helped me recognize my strengths, reframe my mindset and guided me through focused interview preparation. Her guidance to navigate a tough job market was crucial. Karishma’s coaching style is research based, highly personalized and helps bring out the best in her mentees. What stood out most was her support and being present to help during the most time-critical situations, and the clarity in her coaching communications. I genuinely felt her cheering for me throughout my journey. In many ways, I’ve gained not just a mentor, but a great friend. I highly recommend Karishma as a professional career coach and mentor, as she has the ability to uplift and transform the lives she touches!
