Sharmista Raja
Partnering with women over 40 to rebuild their foundation, realign with their purpose, and reclaim their power - creating their most meaningful chapter yet.
Rebuilt, more than once.
And discovered that rebuilding is not failure - it is wisdom.
Sharmista has rebuilt her own life through failure - personally and professionally. Not once, but repeatedly. And through each rebuild, she arrived at a truth that now forms the foundation of everything she does: starting over is not the same as starting from scratch. It is building on the wisdom, resilience, and strength that only comes from having been through something difficult.
Every failure taught her that challenges can become invitations - to rediscover yourself, redefine what matters, and create a life more aligned with who you are becoming. That understanding was hard-won. And it is exactly what she now holds for the women she works with.
With 14 years across talent development, learning facilitation, and behavioural coaching at companies including Infosys and Amazon, Sharmista has built a reputation for creating meaningful experiences that help people unlock their potential, build confidence, and navigate change. Today she brings that expertise - and her own lived experience of rebuilding - to women over 40 who find themselves at a crossroads, ready to create their most meaningful chapter yet.
The answers are already within you.
She asks the questions that help you uncover them.
Sharmista describes her coaching as being someone's 3am friend - the person who holds a safe, non-judgmental space for the most vulnerable moments, and through those conversations, helps clients find their own answers. She does not arrive with prescriptions. She arrives with presence, deep listening, and the questions that help clients see what they have not been able to see before.
Drawing from her extensive background in behavioural change, leadership development, and emotional intelligence, her sessions blend structured coaching frameworks with the kind of warmth and safety that allows real honesty to emerge.
- She works with the whole person - the career, the relationships, the identity - understanding that a crossroads in one area is rarely separate from what is happening in others
- Her coaching draws on proven frameworks for confidence-building, communication, and emotional intelligence - grounded in 14 years of applied experience
- She is especially effective with women navigating personal loss, career transition, relationship changes, or the kind of quiet but significant life shifts that arrive after 40
- Her goal is for clients to leave each session feeling heard, clearer, and more certain of their own capacity to move forward
At a crossroads.
Ready to build what comes next.
Sharmista works with women over 40 who are ready to stop waiting for clarity to arrive on its own - and start actively creating it. Her ideal clients are those who:
- Are corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, or business owners navigating a significant life or career transition - women who have built successful lives and are now asking what the next chapter looks like, and whether it can be more fulfilling than the last
- Have experienced personal loss, a relationship shift, or a career inflection point - those who sense the transition is an opportunity, but need support to find the direction within it
- Feel the gap between who they have been and who they sense they could become - women who are self-aware enough to know that something needs to shift, and committed enough to do the inner work to make it happen
- Are ready to rebuild - not from zero, but from experience - those who understand that the wisdom they have gathered is their greatest asset, not their starting-over point
