What do mental health challenges actually look like? Told by a leader thriving even with ADHD

Ever wondered what mental health issues actually look like? How do I know if I have mental health issues? How can you tell? How do you treat it? How do you succeed despite having mental health issues? Join my conversation with my friend Bhavya, an engineering leader, who is thriving with her own mental health issues. Let’s see how she has tackled this issue and hopefully we can all learn something from her journey.

Rising from failures - how an engineering manager almost didn't finish engineering school

Bhavya failed engineering … twice… she lost her friends, she didn’t get the support she needed from her parents, but she still rose to the challenge and fought through the hardship and finished. Now she is engineering manager at a prominent tech company. Let’s find out together how she was able to rise past her failures and get to where she is today. Plus, we explore deeper the relationship between her and her family and unpack valuable lessons from which we can all benefit.

How can failure be good?

Failing is almost never good, but it should be. Hamish, my career coach, talks about how failure is the best way to learn and build an amazing life. If you’ve switched jobs or careers, don’t be so hard on yourself. You had the courage to take on a new challenge in your life, and some missteps are to be expected. You will learn and become a better person because of this new journey that you’ve taken. Reach out to Hamish if you want to get a deeper dive into how to navigate your work life.
