My Story
Hi there! I’m Dr. Seema Desai. I’m a dentist-turned-success coach, wife, and mom (to name just a few of my roles!) living in Austin, Texas. My passion and purpose is to help outwardly-successful, overachieving leaders feel successful from the inside out.
I was raised by hard-working, well-intentioned Indian immigrant parents to think that “success” meant being a doctor, making good money, and being married with kids.
So I checked off all those boxes. I was “successful.”
On the inside, I felt unfulfilled and stuck. While my life looked Instagram perfect to the rest of the world, I felt like it belonged on the Pinterest fails website instead.
I had sold myself a version of success that wasn’t mine.
Once I started to get to the root of what was really going on, my own sense of inner peace started to deepen. I was a better mom, a better wife, a better doctor, a better everything. And I leveled up in previously unimaginable ways. Life started handing me opportunities that I never would have been able to conceive had I kept allowing myself to believe in my old version of what my life should look like.
It all started with me creating an understanding for how I saw the world, and how those perceptions were actually keeping me from creating a happiness that was unlimited and mine alone.
