The Honest Question Every Charity Leader Is Avoiding!
The Honest Question Every Charity Leader Is Avoiding!

Hello there,

How is your October going?

I know it is the season of the viral bugs flying all around us (I was hit by one just last week!) but you know, I actually love October- there is a lovely autumnal vibe in the air (if that is a thing!), the leaves are all sorts of mesmerising reds and yellows and oranges and it is also the start of lots of fun Hindu festivals! So this time of the year, I always find myself feeling grateful for the amazing diversity in our lives- experiencing autumn while also celebrating our culture and our roots!

Anyway, I pop myself back in here because we have been having far too many interesting conversations with charity leaders through our work at TPL and through my work as Chair of Third Sector Leeds.

Most of my colleagues in India thought I was being naive by leaving behind a highly successful career as a Master of Ceremonies and TV Presenter, my family too were nervous for me. To be honest, I too was nervous and quite often in my first year doubted my decision to leave a career so solid, I often asked myself 'Why' did I do something so silly! From being ridiculed for my accent to being told that I won't work here and that all my years of experience in India are of no use...I have had my share of lows BUT after picking myself up and restoring faith in my own abilities, I realised my 'WHY' very soon.
