About me

Harsha helped me find clarity and insight into my own personal blockers. His coaching style provided the space in our sessions to find solutions and ways forward that were a natural fit to my own personal style.” — Ben Ient

“The way that Harsha works and the questions he asks have helped me find insights about myself that I may not have been able to do otherwise
.” — Priyanka Gupta

For over 6 years, I have been supporting people like Ben and Priyanka find more clarity and focus in their lives, to break through the blockages that hold them back from living fully. The coaching I provide is fundamentally about accessing an inner state — a state of clarity, confidence and focus. What I offer, above all else, is the opportunity to cut through the noise, in a world that is so full of it. A world that so often tells us that we are not good enough. A world of external validation that puts ‘success’ outside of us, when true success comes from within.

I’ll give everything. Will you?

My holistic approach to coaching draws upon all my life experiences and skills — as a professional investor, musician, martial arts practitioner, entrepreneur, certified coach, family constellator and general seeker of the ‘truth’. My goal is to use my whole-being to help you make the best of yourself. I strongly believe in the vast human potential that is in all of us. And, experience has shown me that personal change can be quick. That is why I offer 1:1 executive coaching and life coaching to those who dare to look deeper.

What Clients Say

"It’s not easy finding someone you can relate to that can help you through difficult career situations. I was lucky enough to stumble upon an article Harsha wrote that spoke about choosing a coach that is right for you. I decided to give it a shot and haven’t looked back since.

Since our initial call, Harsha helped me gain the confidence to leave the career I was unhappy with and gave me the courage to start my own business. Harsha is very true to his word and gives it to you the way it is, which is the most important quality in a coach.

I recommend Harsha to anyone who is looking to make a positive change to their life."

Jacob Reyf, Founder, Hulq.com

Bertrand Beauregard, Director, Institut International de Coaching Humaniste

"I found my sessions with Harsha tremendously helpful. I felt heard, understood and always came away with clarity of knowing exactly what I needed to do.

With his guidance, I managed to find clear direction of where I needed to focus."

The way I work

My coaching empowers you to find more clarity, confidence and focus in your life. To access an inner state of freedom both in life and work. And, that calls on you to dare to uncover what holds you back. To dare to challenge the conditioned beliefs and narratives that keep you stuck in a place of dissatisfaction and frustration.

I enable this by working with the specific challenges that you bring to coaching, whether they are career related or more personal. The agenda is always yours. Experience has shown me that uncovering what blocks you in a particular area, usually has wider resonance in other areas of your life. Particularly, when there are common themes at play. Because much of the time, it is how you relate to things that truly matters. Even the subtlest shift in your internal state can have a profound impact on yourself and others.

No method, beyond words

I don’t subscribe to any particular method as a coach. In fact, I am anti the idea of restricting myself to any one thing. My holistic approach to executive and life coaching draws upon all my experiences and skills — as an investor, martial arts practitioner, musician, entrepreneur, certified coach, family constellator and general seeker of the ‘truth’. My goal is to use my whole-self to help you make the best of your-self.

I also believe in the power of engaging both mind and body, and aim to move beyond simply sitting and talking during coaching sessions. While talking through problems is central to how I work, I also introduce visual and spatial mapping, using objects and physical movement. These tools can often help unlock a fresh perspective, particularly when pure linguistic reasoning has left you feeling stuck.
