In an age where women who work are constantly fighting fires to manage house and home as well as a full-time job – taking the time to sit back and reflect on the highs and lows is a cathartic experience that allows reframing of struggle to form positive associations and learnings. Karishma does a great job at facilitating tranquillity within oneself, despite facing conflict and life’s real challenges. It has been a revolutionary experience sit back with Karishma to contemplate and engage in the transition of being a working mum, taking the time to reflect and being guided on how to bring joy to this stage of life, rather than dwelling in the negativity. A year of coaching with Karishma has been enlightening.

“We have worked with Karishma in the past and straight away knew she would be the right coach to run our maternity programme. Karishma is kind, professional, proactive and driven to achieve results for our employees/returning mums and the business. The feedback for the programme has been very positive and we will continue to use the maternity coaching with all our returning mums moving forward."

“Working with Karishma helped me define the reasons I
decided to go for my role, focus on aspects that actually
matter to me, rather than the ‘noise’ that can be
distracting and doesn’t actually matter. It helped me
realise that I was actually happy in terms of my core
criteria, strengths and values and brought focus that
made the transition smooth.”

"The guilt as a working mom workshop was excellent! I found it thoughtful and the strategies offered helpful and supportive. Sharing stories was so encouraging and Karishma was excellent at leading us through the
process. I highly recommend this workshop."

“One of the most well delivered talks we’ve had! Great value in having joined.”

“I found the coaching extremely valuable. It focuses on setting goals across all facets of your life and I found this particularly helpful as it’s about growing as a person, not just at work. I highly recommend the programme and would have struggled more without it. Karishma is fantastic, and I really can’t say how much I appreciated the opportunity to work with her and the investment by work in me through this. I think this coaching is something that really sets us apart from others.”

“I am so glad to have worked with Karishma as she helped me understand what my priorities are and set small goals each session that made a big impact on my life. Since working with her, I have been able to spend more quality time with my family and friends while still growing and excelling at work (I recently got promoted). What I loved about Karishma was her unique coaching style – she found the right balance between challenging me and making me feel supported and at ease.”

“I have been very fortunate to have had conversations with Karishma, who is a fantastic coach. Her thoughtful listening style and guidance to work through clearing the pathway have helped me tremendously. I would not have believed so much positive mindset change was possible before our sessions. Karishma has impacted me with greater self belief, supported in unleashing my talent and work and most importantly finding a balance to invaluable family time and achieving a successful career.”

“I wanted to share how much I am enjoying and benefitting from the return to work coaching with Karishma. It is a really great initiative and Karishma is an excellent coach – I find it very easy to open up to her, and have valuable discussions with her during our sessions. It is benefitting me both as I return to work, but also more generally in the workplace…thank you for investing in me.”

“After coaching with Karishma, I felt I had learned tools and techniques that I could use in day to day life. The point being that I can reflect on how I can be my best and knowing that daily my best can change. I am then able to be my best at work, at home and as a Mum to my young son. Thank you Karishma for these invaluable tools and techniques.”

"Karishma carried out a wonderful and insightful workshop. Thoroughly enjoyed and was so pleased to have attended. So much to learn from Karishma and other members, it's a relief to be able to share thoughts and experiences and being able to see it from another perspective, which is most valuable. Looking forward to the upcoming workshops!"

“Karishma has been a great support while I transitioned
back to work after my maternity leave. A lot of changes
took place during my leave, I had a difficult time
adjusting back to work. Spending time with Karishma
helped me build my confidence and focus on what
mattered to me, helping me define and work towards
my goals.”

”After just one session with Karishma, I felt a huge level of control and relief over my situation following maternity leave. The different perspective and positivity that Karishma helped me to find has been priceless. She is really easy to talk to and was empathetic to my experiences. I highly recommend a consult with the Thought Box even if it be a couple of sessions, it is extremely worth it.”

"Karishma’s 15-Minute Reset for Overwhelmed Parents was fantastic and so helpful in such a short time. In just 15 minutes I felt a connection to my true self, the self that was forgotten and hidden under all the other responsibilities that had taken precedence. Karishma went through the workshop very efficiently and was excellent at putting her points across. Highly recommend this mini workshop and excited to see what other courses she has to offer."

"After eight months of maternity leave I was apprehensive to return to work. I was keen to pick up where I left off and advance my career quickly, but I lacked confidence and was worried that my responsibilities and identity as a mother might impact my role. Karishma provided me with a non-judgmental environment to discuss any concerns and equipped me with useful tools to address challenges and achieve my goals. She has been supportive, kind, and empathetic, but has also ensured that I feel empowered to take ownership of my decisions and circumstances. Thank you Karishma."

"This was the start of an empowering mindset shift. Right away, Karishma's opening message is personal and makes you feel like you have someone in your corner. What got me were the challenges. Easy strategies to catch myself when I'm reverting to less than ideal ways of thinking. I didn't realise how quick and enjoyable the modules would be!"
