THE POWER OF HER

Dr. Mansi Talwar
Career breaks for women often come with two invisible companions - self-doubt and guilt. Dr. Mansi Talwar, Mindful Leadership Coach and Founder of Happy Mee, believes career breaks don’t break women — they reset them. In this exclusive interview, she shares how mindful communication and self-awareness can turn pauses into powerful comebacks. “The world doesn't always pause for our pauses,” she says, “but every break brings wisdom, strength, and purpose.”
EXCERPTS
Q. Many women struggle with self-doubt and guilt during career breaks. What are some mindful strategies to rebuild confidence during reentry?
Ans. The first step is to stop seeing your break as a gap and start viewing it as a phase of growth. Confidence returns when we connect with who we've become, not who we were.
