Our hearts and thoughts are with the people of India. Each week we hear first hand updates from Neha, author of the “Word Power” column and our awesome TGC Editor. Neha tells us about the desperate situation in Gurgaon / Gurugram where she is living.

I take some solace that our weekly team meetings bring laughter and a sense of contributing to something greater to her week. That in itself makes an impact. It shines light and power into some of the dark places.

Despite the lockdowns, illness, and constant cries for help from friends and loved ones, Neha remains strong. I am inspired by her resilience and fortitude. It would be easy and understandable to fall into the victim role, to feel helpless and stuck but she has made other choices. She’s choosing to see possibility and to tap into optimism, hope, creativity and progress.

Her coaching skills and mindset are enabling her to weather the storm.
