My Story
How I found my way here
From following the expected path to discovering my purpose.
Founder · Coach · Speaker · Educator, The Enlighten Path
I’m Uma — the person behind The Enlighten Path. This page is my story: how a quiet interest in Psychology, discovered almost by accident, eventually became the work I do today.
One step led
to another.
Not a straight line—just a series of choices, questions and new directions.
The Expected Path
I was born on 5th November 1996. During my first year of Engineering, I discovered my interest in Psychology. I dreamed of pursuing it, but my family wanted me to complete Engineering and build a stable corporate career. So, I did exactly that.
Discovering Psychology
I completed my Engineering and started my first corporate job in September 2018. Although I struggled academically during Engineering, I found myself deeply connected to Psychology.
My First Salary
When I received my very first salary, I made a decision that changed my life. In October 2018, I invested my first salary in studying Psychology.
Learning While Working
What started as a personal interest soon became something deeper. I began exploring counselling, coaching, human behaviour, mindfulness and personal growth, and started helping people around me.
Discovering Coaching
I began my coaching journey part-time alongside my corporate career, continuously learning, training and gaining experience.
From Passion To Purpose
Over time, my interests expanded into Life Coaching, Mindfulness Coaching, NLP, Career Counselling, Relationship Coaching, Personal Growth, Executive Coaching, 1:1 Coaching, Business Coaching and Facial Yoga. Eventually, I realised that what began as a passion was actually my purpose.
The Enlighten Path
The Enlighten Path was born from my belief that sometimes, the path we didn’t plan can lead us exactly where we’re meant to be. That journey led me here.

In my own words
What I Believe
You do not need to have everything figured out.
Your path may not always look the way you expected.
Learning and growth can happen alongside life, not apart from it.
Sometimes, the path you didn't plan can lead somewhere meaningful.
