Vishnupriya C. Thacker

On a high level, my success is attributed to passion, authenticity, and professionalism, with an attitude of personal care towards my clients. To highlight some specifics:

1. My passion for healing which is expressed through my popular personal coaching program [Rise like a Phoenix] where I work with clients to overcome emotional/energy blockages and limiting beliefs, in order to bring about an inner-outer transformation and to discover their true life purpose through general and Vedic spiritual healing techniques. 
2. The one skill that has grown profoundly during my own spiritual journey and through my work as a coach is the ability to understand with empathy what the other person is saying directly or indirectly. This quality has enabled me to assist my clients to dig deeper into their issues in order to remove any blockage from the root. Compassion/empathy for others, along with a Vedic spiritual perspective, and a pragmatic approach is what makes me and my work/services unique.
3. To offer 100% of my efforts to support each client through their unique transformation process along with the persistence to grow my coaching practice. This commitment to every client is based on my personal belief that we all the ability to go on the spiritual path to heal, become better, stronger versions of ourselves.
4. My interest in holistic health and healing that encourages me to expand my knowledge through the written works by experts like Eckart Tolle, Catherine Ponder, Dr. Deepak Chopra, and Nisargdatta Maharaj, among others.

<ol><li>The best career advice that I have received is to discover your passion, focus on learning, treat everyone with respect in order to build genuine connections, while having a strong attitude of service to others. </li><li>The guidance also included the encouragement to embrace new opportunities and paths with a strong sense of faith, while keeping in mind that career paths seldom have a linear path, so being open minded, patient, and calm are essential to handle any shifts or challenges. </li></ol>

1. Define a niche and specific technique guidelines to work with a specific kind of client rather than trying to help everyone. You may for example, wish to focus on postpartum mothers as a specific niche and provide Reiki healing only].
2. Continuously increase your knowledge and take training programs when you can. Sometimes you can increase your expertise by undertaking small certification programs.
3. As a professional in the industry it is important to be discerning -- know when you say no to new clients or projects that do not align with your focus and energy.
4. Prioritize your own well-being such as having a daily spiritual practice in order to prevent burnout.

<ol><li>A wonderful opportunity the field right now is to offer personalized client-centric services focused on mind-body-spirit and longevity as a means to improve quality of life. </li><li>A challenge that remains is the lack of integration between conventional and complementary or holistic medicine. Recently, there has also been a concentrated focus on wearable healthcare technology which is data heavy and clinical in nature, but what is required today is a more compassionate, human-centered approach to healing as that offered in holistic health practices such as spirituality healing and wisdom-oriented ancient methods. </li></ol>

1. The values that are important to me both in my work and personal life include authenticity, compassionate understanding, hard work and resilience, respect for others including myself to build genuine connections, trust, and having a work-life balance as much as possible.
