My Story
Hi, I’m Nidhi Gurnani.
I work with high-capacity women navigating identity shifts during major life transitions.
Before becoming a coach, I studied at premier institutes such as Yale School of Management, IIM Bangalore and BITS-Pilani and built a global career across United States and India.
I led teams. Made high-stakes decisions. Operated in high-performance environments.
From the outside, I embodied competence.
From the inside, I felt misaligned.
What I began to understand — through my own transitions and years of observing high-achieving women is this: External success does not protect internal certainty.
What I Experienced and What I Now See Clearly
Life transitions did not dismantle my competence.
They disrupted my internal authority.
A serious illness that left me weak inside, but looking “fine” on outside.
Relationship loss that made feel like a failure.
Marriage and motherhood that reshaped my sense of self.
Moments of self-doubt in the middle of career pivots that appeared “achievements” on the outside.
Each transition expanded my roles but quietly diluted my internal reference point.
I was still capable. But I began:
Overthinking decisions
Seeking reassurance
Carrying invisible pressure
Measuring myself against shifting standards
Nothing was broken. But something was misaligned.
That misalignment is what I now call identity drift. And I see it consistently in high capacity women.
What Changed Everything
What helped me most was not advice.
It was structured reflection.
Evidence-informed tools.
A regulated, non-judgmental space to recalibrate my internal compass.
I did not need reinvention.
I needed alignment.
That realization shaped the foundation of Reinvent Your North and the Grounded Woman™ Framework™ — a four-phase identity recalibration process designed specifically for high-functioning women in transition.
Why I Do This Work
High-capacity women are rarely falling apart.
They are holding everything together while quietly losing internal clarity.
My work is not about motivation.
It is not about performance optimization.
It is about restoring self-trust, internal authority, and grounded decision-making during seasons of change.
Because when a woman is regulated, clear, and internally anchored, her leadership, relationships, and choices transform naturally.
If you’re navigating transition and sensing something internal has shifted, you are not alone.
And you are not behind.
You may simply need recalibration.
