Loss transforms us. If someone had said this to me a few years ago when I was in the thick of experiencing it, I would have never understood it. Now, after being on the other side, I see a new version of myself. Loss indeed changed me.
Meet Shilpa, a tech researcher who strives to infuse technology and businesses with fun and humanity. Her job involves listening to unique stories from different individuals, teaching her empathy and the art of being a good listener. Today, Shilpa is ready to share her own personal story with you.
In 2021, after more than a decade in the US, Shilpa made a life-altering decision—to return to her homeland, India. But why? The past six years held a tumultuous journey. In 2018, Shilpa faced the profound loss of her 2-year-old daughter to a rare genetic disorder called GM1. This loss forced her to confront and reevaluate everything she once deemed "normal," leading her to let go of aspects of her life that were no longer serving her, including a cherished career and a 10-year marriage.
Join Shilpa as she recounts her transformation, her decision to return to India, and the challenges she faced in this courageous leap of faith. Through her podcast, she hopes to share her story of loss, grief, healing, and self-discovery, offering support and insights to others navigating similar journeys. While not an expert, Shilpa has learned valuable lessons that she's eager to share, inviting you to join her on this journey of embracing change and pursuing new beginnings, and is "In The Making"
