Dr. Sweta is an authentic, empowering coach who listens attentively and holds a safe space for people around her. I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Sweta in a group coaching program where Dr. Sweta held a safe space for our community and facilitated conversations around life and leadership principles. It was in this program that I discovered the importance of owning my voice and story, so that I can author my life’s narrative with more confidence. Since then, I’ve also made it my mission to help others to own their voices.
