Richa Prasad, Co- Founder & CEO of Coach Viva, shares how she went from not-knowing-what-to-do - to working for big tech - to founding a behavior change-based weight loss company that happily marries her passions + purpose + love of learning.
She got here by experimenting with what I call “Life Pivots,” experience-driven experiments that weren’t haphazard, but done “on purpose” by continuously fine-tuning and following her inner guidance system. You may completely change the way you approach life and how you question your own thinking after listening to this episode!
Topics Explored:
- Deciding on cultural fit.
- How university + tech experience taught her what she REALLY loves.
