Meet your coach

Natasha Olga Gulati (PCC)
Founder - Imagine Success

I have experienced a wonderfully adventurous life leading me to incredible success, corporate repute, international fame and all kinds of rewards. But I have also experienced significant failures, social humiliation, poverty and abuse. I know personally what drives us to addictive patterns, whether in the form of substance use, emotional states and behaviours just so we can cope with the pain of life, fear of the failure and the constant living in survival mode. AND I also know what it takes to stop and look at those patterns, and decide to change them for the better. I know what it takes to separate yourself from the external world, to be in control of your own life experiences and be free of thoughts, patterns and beliefs that don’t work for you anymore.

My journey with Leadership Coaching began as a result of the my life changing experience of Immigrating to Canada at the hight of my professional career in India, only to be confounded with the reality of settling into a new country and culture, closely compounded by the global pandemic. Unsurprisingly, this journey has shaped who I have now become - a resilient, decidedly authentic and determined human.

The immigration experience brought to the surface all my deepest insecurities, intensified by being laid off just before the pandemic, plunging me into the depths of despair, where I started feeling like I had failed life and may never feel successful again. Somehow, I found the courage to hold onto hope and face all my innermost demons, one day at a time, slowly and steadily making my way out of the darkness and into the light, where I started to remember who I truly was, and had always been, without the baggage of the past.

Coaching helped me to remember that I am in control of my own life by taking full responsibility of all my choices based on my own thoughts and emotions. I learned how to hold space for the difficult emotions that came up with uncomfortable realizations, by looking at myself through the eyes of Love and Compassion about all my belief systems and behaviours that were keeping me stuck in a negative self-defeating pattern. It was hard at first, but now nothing less will do.

Having experienced the profound container of coaching to do some deeply transformational work, I remember thinking ‘This is the missing piece I’d been looking for over my entire Human Resources career! The practical process to create the most empowering space for any human to rise to their own greatest versions of themselves, no matter what their past experiences, if they so choose.’

Jumping right in, I became an ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), and founded Imagine Success, to share this powerful and transformational leadership tool with leaders and organizations to create more self empowered and aligned workforces and corporate cultures.

This key to deep and authentic change and transformation.

And if I can, you can. Choose success.
