Anu Bhatnagar

When I see the potential of an ‘idea’, & believe in it, I put my heart & soul into it.

The adventurer in me seeks the unknown & pushes me to go on new experiences and take my readers, my community with me.

Somewhere along my journey I freed myself from fear of uncertainty, “what if” and failure and drifted away from a traditional career, even though I truly love the business, corporate workspace, and moved towards sustainable community work.

I love to be presented with a great challenge or a bigger cause, this often brings the best of me. I am also known for my tenacity, perseverance & capacity to work tirelessly.
