From a thought to a Reality

The Turning Point: When Life Pushed Me to Take Charge

In 2018, my life took an unexpected turn. My husband, Richie, fell ill, and despite multiple consultations, there was no diagnosis for his health challenge. As days turned into months, his condition remained unchanged, leaving me anxious, helpless, and uncertain about my future and my childrens future.

One evening, Richie said something that shook me to my core: "Nandita, you need to take charge of our finances and the children."

At that moment, I felt lost—I had no direction, no plan, and no idea how to do it. My identity had always been centered around my art and family, but this was different. It was a call to step up, find my purpose, and create financial stability.

The Thought That Refused to Leave Me

Fast forward to 2021, when India was hit by the pandemic. Life as we knew it came to a standstill. My husband still struggling with his health issues also hit by Covid was admitted to hospital, but he continued his duties serving nation in this crisis!

Kids were busy with their Zoom classes and virtual meetings, adapting to the new reality of working and learning online.

 But I was still searching—for meaning, purpose, and a way to contribute in family kitty. Also how to Relieve Richie from being the sole responsibility of family. 

Then, a thought sparked within me: "What if art could be used as a tool for healing?" and "What if I could bring my years of experience in art to impact people in a way that transcended physical boundaries?"

But there was one big challenge—I had no knowledge about the power of the online world. I was not tech-savvy, and the idea of starting something online seemed overwhelming. Could I really do it? Was I even capable?

Yet, that one thought refused to leave me

From Fear to Action: Turning a Dream into Reality

In 2022, I made a bold decision—I decided to invest in my growth.

I joined mentorship programs and learned about Reiki, Inner Child Healing, and Ho'oponopono.

I invested in digital coaching, marketing, and online business courses to understand how to create an impact.

Slowly, I built the confidence and skills to launch my dream.

And in 2023, Life Canvas Academy was born.

What started as a single thought in 2021 has now turned into a thriving community, with thousands of students healing, growing, and impacting others.

Life Coaching: My Wings to Freedom

I learned from my mentors that healing isn’t just about overcoming past struggles—it’s about rediscovering yourself.

Healing gave me financial stability while doing what I love. But life coaching gave me wings—it brought me clarity through my core values:

Financial Freedom – The freedom of choice, speech, and family time.

Identity – Self-worth and self-confidence.

Respect and Recognition – Earning respect as a non-negotiable value and receiving recognition for my work and impact.

Knowing my values gave me the clarity to face life’s challenges with confidence. It helped me build a successful career while improving my personal life.
