Please join me in welcoming Rachita Agarwal to her Year 2 with RYD 💜

​Rachita is the co-founder of Paper Crush, a premium gifting brand with the rare distinction of transforming its customers into delighted, loyal fans.

She moves to Project Pinnacle with Centre for Entrepreneurial Excellence™, a channel of impact of Realize Your Dreams Gym for Business, Leadership and Life Mastery™, as her structure of success for her ongoing good to great journey with RYD and Anju Chowla as her wind beneath her wings.

I feel deeply grateful when our coachees travel to their next RYD year because every subsequent year, their growth across Leadership Depth, Craft Mastery and Business Excellence becomes deeper, stronger and more expansive. This is because RYD is a build-up journey with every following year built on the progress in the previous year; supporting our coachees, on their way to realize their limitless potential, to experience joyously fulfilling growth year on year across all dimensions - personal, relationship, business, leadership and life. 

Here's a bit about Rachita in her own words:

I am based in Mumbai, where I live with my husband Pratik and our two wonderful kids, Tara and Arjun. I feel blessed that my sister Ankita and brother-in-law Bharat, my sister-in-law Aakriti, and my cousin sister Shweta are all part of RYD as well. It fills me with pride and joy to have so many from my social atom on this journey with me.

For most of my career, I have been devoted to building Paper Crush - a premium gifting company I co-founded with my sister Ankita. Our purpose has always been to create thoughtful, joyful, and loving moments through the work we do.

I am a complete TV buff and love unwinding with my favourite shows. I also enjoy playing tennis. Recently, I have developed a newfound love for Mahjong. Beyond that, organising brings me joy, and I am deeply passionate about design in all its forms.

In my Year 1 with RYD, I experienced the incredible power of creation and intention. Together, they brought nothing short of magic into my life.

As I step into Year 2 with RYD, my focus is on nurturing my health and creating an even greater positive impact through my work.

I feel motivated, grateful, blessed, and truly excited to embrace everything that Year 2 has in store.​

Looking forward to holding your space, Rachita, as you joyously fly higher in the vast sky of your limitless possibilities in your RYD Year 2.

Loving you,
j.

I live in India, though I was raised in Australia. I have 2 residential bases - Mumbai and Goa. I spend a lot of time travelling. My parents reside with me in Mumbai. My son and daughter-in-law live close by. I will soon have a grandchild. My brothers and their families live in Australia.  I stepped up to Realize Your Dreams Gym because I believe leadership begins with self-mastery. Just as I design learning journeys for children, I see my own journey as an ongoing practice of growth, reflection, and transformation. What I look forward to is the structure and accountability to sharpen my leadership, align with my purpose, and amplify my impact.

I feel both excited and grounded as I progress into Year 1 on my RYD Good to Great journey. Excited because growth always brings new possibilities. Grounded because this journey is about deepening what I already value - learning, evolving, and leading with authenticity and courage. I see RYD as more than a program - it is a movement toward living and leading with higher purpose. I am grateful to be on this journey alongside inspiring peers and mentors, and I look forward to co-creating impact that goes beyond ourselves.

Holding your space, Lina, for you to be a channel of massive positive impact, transforming Education in our country and the world, leading humanity forward to a Brave New World.

Loving you,
j.

Please join me in welcoming Ritu Passari to our RYD Family 💜

Besides successfully and profitably running her Data and Information business - soon to be renamed ScaleatriX - which supports SaaS and technology-enabled businesses globally with Lead Generation, Digital Marketing, and Data Services, she is also a passionate Instagram Lifestyle Blogger, collaborating with brands to amplify their promotions.

What makes Ritu’s joining extra special is that her spouse and co-founder, Harsh, is already on his good-to-great journey with RYD. When spouses travel their good to great journey together with RYD as their shared structure of success, both of them individually lead themselves and their businesses from good to great, realize their dreams and have it all with greater ease, grace and velocity. Their children mirror this growth, naturally progressing on their own good-to-great journey as a reflection of their parents.

​Our evolution is not a solitary act. It is a community process. When our social atom journeys with us, we experience deeper learning, accelerated growth, and massive contribution to realize our limitless potential. Together, we create a Brave New World where people in our space joyously, effortlessly and graciously lead themselves and their work from good to great, realize their dreams and have it all; while having lots of fun and adventure together along the way.

She joins Centre for Entrepreneurial Excellence™, a channel of impact of Realize Your Dreams Gym for Business, Leadership and Life Mastery™ to fly high in the vast sky of her limitless possibilities with Anju Chowla as her coach, her wind beneath her wings.

Here's a bit about Ritu in her own words:

We are blessed with Reyansh, our 12 year old son. We have been living in Pune since the last 4 years. I am basically from Delhi NCR region and lived most of my years there before getting married to Harsh and moving to Kolkata. We were in Kol for 10 years before we shifted to Pune. 

After pursuing my career in HR for 2 years, I quit and became an entrepreneur. Harsh and I co-founded IBC Consultants in 2012. We independently manage two different businesses within IBC. I am also an Instagram Lifestyle Blogger, collaborating with event organisers, restaurants, salons, fitness centres, fashion boutiques, and beauty brands to expand their reach and maximise the impact of their promotions.

I love singing, dancing, yoga, and weight training. I love watching bollywood movies. I am passionate about dancing and would love to learn this art form in greater depth.

I am joining RYD to be happy, confident and successful in all areas of my life - my venture, my blogging journey, my relationships and my overall well-being. 

I am excited to begin my good to great journey with Anju as my wind beneath my wings and RYD as my structure of success.

Looking forward to holding your space, Ritu, for you to joyously fly high in the vast sky of your limitless possibilities.

Loving you,
j.

With this Welcome, one of my Outcome Goals from my One-Pager 2025 is achieved 💜

From my RYD 2025:

3. Loving, harmonious, positive, uplifting relationships at work, at home and in the world

Outcome Goal 2025: I am happy and grateful that Adds finds it meaningful to be an RYD Coach, supporting us to transform our relationship from good to great with both of us experiencing deep joyous nurturing connection at all levels – physical, mental, emotional, energetic, spiritual; with both of us making a massive positive impact in the world as an outcome of our partnership. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

In 2017, 2 years before our nightmare breakdown, I had written an article on - When to divorce your Spouse and your Organisation - I had hypothesised that any relationship goes through 3 phases:
1. Honeymoon Period
2. Growth Phase or Breakdown Phase 
3. Partnership Phase

I feel deeply grateful and divinely blessed that both Aditya and I came out stronger as an outcome of our nightmare breakdown from where few marriages survive. Not only did we personally grow massively as an outcome of that breakdown, but also recreated our marriage from ground sub-zero to joyously fulfilling levels that we haven't ever experienced before.

Please join me in welcoming my best friend, my almost twin (we were born 18 hours apart), my spouse, my co-nurturer of our adorable kids - 19-years old Anya and 17-years old Shivenn, as an RYD Coach with Project Socrates and as Chief Financial Officer at Realize Your Dreams Gym for Business, Leadership and Life Mastery™.

Besides his rich and immensely valuable corporate, entrepreneurial and coaching experience which elevates the depth of the RYD leadership team, he brings diversity to our team which is a critical success factor for greatness.

Aditya is an Engineer MBA with 27 of deep experience across multiple industries working with global businesses like Lexmark, Philips, TATA-AIG, ABN Amro / RBS Bank. In 2009, he set up Travel Protector - an insurance distribution technology platform (B2B) and worked with 10,000 retail travel agents across India. The strength of the business was its distribution spread from Port Blair to Srinagar, and large partners like Yatra, Ibibo Group and few others. The platform in 2023 was merged with a larger Insure-tech firm, and Aditya exited the business in 2025. 

Here's a bit more about him in his own words:
 
I love playing golf, listening to podcasts / TED Talks and watching movies. I am passionate about personal and business growth; and about adding value and creating an impact.  

My first experience as a coach was in 2012-13, through a Landmark program, during which I coached six business owners over a period of six months. The challenge was that all of them were alpha leaders - but the reward was immense: we flourished together and built a deep personal bond that we cherish till today.

I then applied the same coaching methodology to coach my own team and grow my business, including client acquisitions. Later, the founders of GoIbibo, who were my clients, engaged me to coach their business team over 18 months. I am  delighted to begin my journey with RYD having thoroughly enjoyed that experience.

I am excited about my journey ahead with Jyoti in a whole new role - relationship; one that I believe will further elevate and enrich our bond; enabling us to make a much greater difference together than either of us could individually. The event in Mumbai was truly world-class, and bringing the best of the world to Indian business owners is both inspiring and deeply fulfilling.

Looking forward to our new journey together, Aditya, for you to joyously lead yourself and your coachees from good to great, realize your dreams and have it all with ease and grace; living our community's shared Core Values, fulfilling on our community's shared Purpose, contributing to achieving our community's shared BHAG 2047.

I am deeply touched by your giving me the privilege to be the wind beneath your wings. 

Loving you,
j.
