You may be in the right place if…
—
—
You carry a high level of responsibility, and rarely feel like you can fully exhale.
—
You're leading at work and showing up for the people who matter, but somewhere in there, you've started running on autopilot.
—
You want success that doesn't come at the expense of your peace, your presence, or what matters most.

What begins to shift
This work is not about doing more.
It's about returning to a way of leading and living that feels more aligned, more grounded, and more true to you.
Regulate your inner state
So you are no longer leading from urgency, pressure, or overextension.
Reconnect with your truth
So your decisions reflect clarity, values, and who you actually want to be.
Create sustainable momentum
So your success becomes more grounded, intentional, and deeply yours.

I came in carrying something heavy I couldn't quite name. This work helped me look in the mirror and see what was really there, and realize that it is in my power to make the change. I'm not waiting for clarity anymore. I'm creating it.

I'm feeling much more confident and clear on the steps I need to take. The most valuable shift for me was gaining a clearer perspective on how to approach the executive leadership team conversations.

The work of Zavaya Flow was purposeful and impactful without being a heavy lift. It helped me recognize that if I take a moment to pause, I can gain clarity and see that I have it within me to deal with tough situations.

The work
Two ways to work together
Whether you are looking for the depth of private coaching or the shared experience of a small group, the work begins in the same place: creating enough space to hear yourself, understand what is shaping your choices, and move toward what matters with greater self-trust.
Private Coaching
Six months of focused 1:1 coaching for women in leadership ready for the success they've built to feel aligned, fulfilling, and deeply their own.
You'll begin to
—
Make decisions with greater clarity and self-trust, especially under pressure
—
Shift out of constant pressure and into a steadier way of leading
—
Strengthen your presence, internally and externally
—
Create success that feels more aligned with your values, your season, and the life you want to build
What's included
—
Twice-monthly sessions, 60 minutes each, for six months.
—
Voice messages between sessions for the moments that need a sounding board: before or after a hard conversation, a decision sitting heavy, a thought worth testing aloud. I respond within a business day.
—
Six months shaped around what you bring: an opening session to map your patterns and the decisions ahead, biweekly sessions paced to your calendar, and a deeper check-in at the three-month mark to make sure the work is still pointed at what matters.
—
Three written integration snapshots: after the opening session, at month three, and at month six.
Investment
Investment is shared in our private consultation, where we explore whether this is the right fit for where you are.
If the work isn't the right fit, I'll say so. I only work with women where I'm genuinely confident I can help.
Zavaya Flow
An intimate five-week inner leadership experience for women ready to reconnect with what matters, choose one meaningful 90-day goal, and build a personalized, sustainable way forward.
Zavaya Flow combines the connection of a small group with the care of private 1:1 coaching and support between sessions. Cohorts open at select times throughout the year.
NEXT COHORT BEGINS SEPTEMBER 30
Hi, I'm Sanji
Leadership without losing yourself.
I spent fifteen years in tech, starting as a software engineer and most recently serving as Chief Product Officer of a health-tech startup we grew from pre-revenue to seven figures.
Then I became a mom. From the outside, my life looked like success. Inside, something felt off. As my career grew, so did the pressure and the constant pull on my attention. By the time my son was one, I was answering Slack messages during bedtime, physically with him but mentally elsewhere. Something had to change.
I started working with a coach. For the first time, I had space to hear myself: what truly mattered, and the woman I wanted to be. After months of deliberate, uncomfortable work, the clarity was undeniable. Embodying it took longer.
In 2024, pregnant with our second, I stepped away. We moved back to Sri Lanka for nearly two years, where my husband and I both grew up. Our daughter was born there, surrounded by family and a slower way of living. I trained as a coach. That season gave me my first taste of grounded success: leading my life from a place of inner peace.
I built Zavaya to do this work alongside other women on similar paths: aligning ambition with values, making clear decisions under pressure, and building success that is sustainable and fulfilling, not performative.
Home now is Cary, North Carolina. Outside of work, I run, I lift, and I am outdoors with family and friends every chance I get. I love to travel. And I still build and experiment with AI, fascinated by what it can do, and honest about what it is costing us.

Do I need to know what I want to work on?
No. Most women come in with a sense that something isn't quite right and needs to change, without yet being able to name what. You don't need to. That's where we begin.
Is this confidential?
Completely. What you share stays with me. Coaching works because it's a space where you can be fully honest, without performance, strategy, or reputation on the line.
What if we're not the right fit?
That's what the consultation is for. If it's not the right fit for either of us, I'll say so. You'll leave the conversation with more clarity either way.
How are sessions held?
Via video, 60 minutes each, at a rhythm that works for you.
Final invitation
If this speaks to where you are, I'd love to hear from you.
Book a private consultation below. We'll have a thoughtful conversation about where you are, what's calling for change, and what support might look like from here.
Where success feels like peace.
