What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Published my 2nd book, ‘The 9 Colours of Vibrant Women’ in May 2020. Rapid rise in the social crimes against women across the world inspired me to write this book. Through this book, I wanted to inspire every woman to explore their strength and live an extra-ordinary life by fostering situational self-leadership.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Yes, I took approximately 60 days to complete 40,000 words book. I sticked to this writting pattern for both my books. May be because i have full time career, I was super focussed and highly productive to ensure i complete the book quickly.
