Dear Rashmi, I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the personal coaching you provided. The lessons I’ve learned from you have been incredibly useful in my day-to-day life. While the progress I make is a result of my own efforts and practice, I am deeply indebted to you for offering the guidance and process that has transformed my approach to speaking in front of an audience. Your explanation of the importance of voice, along with the three P’s—Pause, Pace, and Pitch—has been particularly impactful. I’m actively incorporating these techniques as I develop my own style as a confident speaker and orator. Thank you so much for sharing your valuable insights with me

Health Coach

Hello Rashmi … few lines of gratitude to you. My journey with you had been phenomenal. I started this journey to find my voice, but I found much more than that… the hidden potential which I feared to knock into. Your constant push & motivation encouraged me to go beyond my comfort zone & walk into the unknown area of my capability. I am really thankful to you for helping me to take a few steps forward from the starting line, for which earlier I had created a barrier & blockage for myself. I really feel confident now as I know … I just need to tap into my unknown. Thank you so much for building my confidence & leading me to the starting line. Thank you!

"I'd been seeking a voice coach for quite some time, but when I read through Rashmi's work and posts on LinkedIn, I instantly knew she was the one. I realized that what I needed help with were my self doubts, to articulate my thoughts clearly and speak with confidence. During this journey with Rashmi, we deep dived into all these aspects, and she helped me not only with my speaking but also in addressing my self-doubts and much more. She also helped me discover aspects of my voice that I had been unaware of. She has an incredible talent for empowering others by helping them tap into their inner strengths.

Preethi Guruswamy Leadership coach, Lean In Network Leader

Rashmi Shetty's sessions helped me with a holistic approach to find the #VoiceInMe. All the sessions were so well crafted for my need and my style, and I have continued my practice even today. I have a tracker to build new habits for productivity. Now I have VANI as part of my habits which I’m continuously enriching and advancing. She gave structure to my style and helped me to navigate looking both inward and outwards to unlock my skills effectively. Rashmi brings warmth with her soothing voice and her unique ways helped me to build acceptance through awareness. I was appreciated at work, for thinking on my feet which keeps me motivated always. There were many things I learnt from the sessions with Rashmi and each of the techniques gave me great benefit as I put them to practice. After #VANI, the best feedback I receive is when I tell the stories to my daughter, she laughs and cries as she hears them. If you want to find your voice, then I would recommend VANI with Rashmi Shetty!

"Rashmi is an absolute delight to learn from. I took her course to learn public speaking. But she took me on a whole different and deeper journey into myself. While she emphasised on discovering my inner voice, what I ended up unfolding is my inner self. From mu childhood tales, to my inspirations, she helped me unravel everything that was unique and special to me. It was so beautiful to go on that journey with Rashmi, who guided me ever so gently with her sweetest smile. Thank you Rashmi for making me meet myself."

Meenakshi Devarakonda Finance Professional

Rashmi is a great coach. She is a keen listener and understands the style of the student. She helped me harness the voice inside me. She showed the strengths that I already got which could be of great help to my presentations. In my training time with Rashmi, I had all sorts of moments: intense, passionate, delicate; she steered me through all of them and put me in the right direction of understanding my layers when speaking through these frames of mind. By the end of the final session, I think I made a great friend, mentor and guide. Thanks Rashmi!

Sahar Coach & Author

I had been looking to train with a Voice Coach for long. I connected with dearest Rashmi Shetty last year and decided I wanted to gift myself my Voice. Even though I have been a public speaker and a trainer but what I was looking for was someone who can see the uniqueness in me and then help me express it. Rashmi has very holistic approach to her work, during the coaching I realized how vast and interesting the subject was. She has a unique way of helping you discover you. I totally enjoyed the assignments and her keen, constructive critics. I surely recommend VANI. Finding your voice is one of the best thing you can do for you. Thank you Rashmi

Photographer & Facilitator

I met Rashmi through a dear friend, at a time when I was seriously doubting my public speaking skills. I had recently conducted my first big workshop for a large group of people & I received feedback saying " You lack energy while speaking." When I asked for more details, nobody could tell me what they really meant by lack of energy. So I went with this confusing feedback to Rashmi hoping she would help me not only decipher the true meaning but also help me overcome it. And oddly enough, the first time we spoke she laughed and said, " Where is the energy lacking in you ? Well, I can't see it! And I want you to stop believing that immediately. Instead let us focus on finding your authentic voice." And from then on through the 5 week Vani course, Rashmi helped me understand the true elements of voice. I learned that Voice is beyond the physical - it is also the arrangement of thoughts, choice of words, and the intention behind using it. Week by week, her guidance helped me peel back layers of inhibition & self doubt. This gave me tremendous clarity about who I am & about how I want to express myself from now on. I also realised how voice can be used to help others. Rashmi is one of the most patient and compassionate coaches that I've come across ! Her greatest strength is her understanding of human nature & she helps people make authentic connections with themselves and others. Her positive presence and loving guidance helped me find courage to express my 'true energetic voice' ! 🙂 I would recommend anyone who is looking to find their own voice and their authentic self to take on this journey with Rashmi through the Vani course.

Chitra Corporate Professional

Every Individual needs are unique in finding their voice. Women struggle to find the voice to reclaim their point of view; parents need the most in their parenting journey, and for leaders, it is a paramount weapon in their armory. My needs were to have confidence in myself, accept myself as I am, go through the awareness journey to understand who I am, and communicate assertively in my personal and professional interactions. This exactly sums up the learning journey I had with Rashmi Shetty during her 10 week-long sessions at VANI. Her sessions were unique and come with philosophical touch and those tenets touch your chord at the right place and at the right time. I am very grateful to Rashmi for her coaching sessions. May her tribe increase in multifold and wish her all the very best in all her endeavors.

Senior Finance Professional

To quote from Longfellow “The human voice is the organ of the soul”. While I was using my voice as a moderator on many occasions, I felt somewhat untrained and sensed a lot that remained to be tapped if my true potential in this area. Speaking to Rashmi, who has been a friend from the time before her radio jockey and coaching days, validated this thought. Rashmi has always had a voice that stood out and made me want to hear more of what she had to say. When she offered to coach me and take me through the VANI journey to help me ‘unbox’ myself last Christmas, I had already given myself the best ever Christmas gift! It was a beautiful journey and Rashmi helped me step out of my comfort zone and explore emotions, modulations and much more. She gave me tools to stay calm, think on my feet and manage time when I speak. The rich toolbox she equipped me with makes me feel much more confident and self aware when I speak in public. I have effortlessly expressed myself the last few months and realised only in retrospect how much this has all been thanks to Rashmi and VANI. The completion of VANI marks my transition from a hesitant speaker-by-chance to a confident speaker-by-choice, and makes Rashmi my one and only friend-cum-coach. Thanks Rashmi for helping me connect with my own voice!!

VANI is an excellent forum for Voice coaching and goes much beyond making effective presentations. It includes how through our voice, tone, and use of language we can communicate to foster better relationship. Thank You Rashmi for your valuable coaching and feedback. I treasure it !!!

Mansi Corporate Leader

10 sessions with Rashmi were full of self discovery. The journey involved multiple assignments to focus on key areas of communication: voice, breath, pitch, emotions, structure & simplicity. Each session was around discussion on homework, impromptu in session exercises, stories & examples. At the end, i was able to discover the mantra that will work for me in presentations and as a speaker. VANI program has made take on more opportunities where I can speak, express, learn and inspire instead of avoiding It

Elza Marketing & Communications Consultant

I started my VANI journey as a coach who was evolving, discovering my true self. I had always felt that my voice was not fully expressed or heard. And I knew that I was getting in my own way.  Coach Rashmi's guided modulation exercises helped break the self-doubt, anxiety, self sabotaging behaviors that kept me from sharing my voice. Though it was difficult understanding my inhibitions at first, it was amazing how Coach Rashmi held space for me, waiting for me to let my authentic self be heard! I'm immensely grateful for Coach Rashmi's patience, smiling demeanour, insightful sessions that helped challenge myself every step of the way.  I feel a new found freedom in realising that my voice is like no other! And it's unique, gentle, beautiful all the same.  Thank you for all that you are! You truly deserve all the love and light in this world.

Rashmi Coach

Working with Rashmi Shetty has helped me to speak with greater inner freedom. The inner judge inside me wanted me to be ‘perfect’ and it used to restrict me. But in giving up the perfection, I found ease and flow. This is thanks to Rashmi’s coaching style where she herself goes with the client’s flow and needs; gives valuable feedback as well as technical tips on the how and what of your voice: pauses, expression, tonality, etc.

Sindhu Life coach

Rashmi is the epitome of an ideal woman who embodies great confidence through her humility, her nurturing quality, the expertise of an experienced credentialed coach, her articulate and magnificent style of speaking demonstrated through her experience as an AIR- RJ, which she shares through her life lessons at 'Meaningful Mondays" sealed with an ever pleasant demeanor and a constant smile in all her interactions. These aspects of her instantly drew me to want to learn from the pages of her book. I have benefited in more ways than I ever imagined through her curated one-on-one sessions, which were packed with content and integrated with a coaching approach to far exceeding my goals. It is a pleasure to connect with her, she is very resourceful and generous with her sharing, and I am very grateful to know her. Thank you, an awesome lot Rashmi!”

VANI - The Power of our Soul! The power which sometimes we suppress & sometimes, if not modulated or articulated right causes the harm to other's soul. The same grass root concern, the platform "VANI" by "The Third Eye" knit together by, none other than exceptional coach in this sector, "Rashmi Shetty".   Rashmi as a "VANI" coach just not only focused on the voice of her coachee. She nurtures the sessions with a holistic approach of making sure that the Vocabulary" used for "Articulation" of statement is in conjunction to our "Non-Verbal Cues" & radiates the right "Inflexion" in our "VANI"

Thank you for introducing me to a UNIQUE and the most important concept VANI. I have been part of various coaching conversations, read many books, and participated in leadership workshops, however, this program stands out as a CONDENSED VERSION of all the titbits required to lead life personally and professionally. It's UNIQUE: *Packaging the critical concepts SIMPLE yet IMPACTFUL *Combo of MIND, BODY, and SOUL *Creating MENTAL WEALTH from MENTAL HEALTH *What we say to HOW WE SAY *Continue to learn and unlearn LIFE lessons personally / professionally. *Most Important of all the POWER OF INNER VOICE when heard can always be modulated as an external voice that can be heard and that creates YOUR IDENTITY be it virtual/Real-world. Special mention for all the energy you bring around you. RASHMI RADIATES POSITIVE ENERGY!

Punam

"The sessions with Rashmi Shetty began with tools and techniques for voice modulation and communication enhancement. But in the course of our journey, I found in her someone with whom I could share other challenges too. She always had an answer to show me the direction. That’s the reason I feel she is more than just a voice coach. Every session with her left me energized and charged up with the motivation to do something. At the end of the course, I realized I was much more confident in public speaking, and there was also a shift in my mindset. Now each time I am asked to speak, or even if anyone requests me to sing a song, it’s as though I have a magic button to switch on. I recall Rashmi’s Shetty’s face, and automatically I am ready. Though it may sound weird, that’s what I have been doing. The course unleashed something within me, making me more positive and confident. It’s a course worth taking for those who wish to build confidence, develop their speaking skills, and open up as a person. Most of the courses in the market are highly priced. But here you have someone who has priced her course such that most women, wanting to experience a change, can avail it. I sincerely thank Rashmi Shetty for this beautiful voyage of self-improvement and self-development."

Divya

I always thought the issue was with my voice, it's too childish or soft and that was the issue. But through VANI, I understood it's about how we effectively use our voice. And that also means being self-aware and working from a conscious place of understanding yourself. So I got a lot more than I expected signing up. I looked forward to my sessions with Rashmi, understanding my voice, how it reflects my emotions and personality, and learning techniques to center myself and effectively use my voice. I've understood that no one thing exists on it's own, it's a consequence of different aspects of your life and that's why Rashmi's holistic approach to coaching was so very valuable. And as a bonus, she is so wonderful to talk to as well, sharing such rich insights and experiences, that there was always a takeaway from every interaction. I would highly recommend VANI to anyone looking to not only learn to understand and use their voice more effectively but also for well-rounded training and guidance. It's an investment that has made a world of difference to me.

Priya
