The CALMfident Leader: Well-Being Meets Visionary Leadership with Vinita Mongia, Founder of CALMfident Leadership

In this empowering episode, I sit down with Vinita Mongia, experienced Principal, Leadership Consultant, and Founder of Vinita Mongia Leadership & Consulting, to explore how mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and resilience can redefine leadership in education and beyond.

Vinita’s journey began with a childhood fascination with chalk and evolved into a thriving career as a school leader. After experiencing the pressures and burnout that often accompany educational leadership, she pivoted her path to focus on supporting leaders through personalized coaching, workshops, and her signature CALM Resilience Framework—Connect, Attitude of Gratitude, Learn, and Mindful Measures.

Now, Vinita is on a mission to build a culture of visionary mindful leadership, where well-being is not an afterthought, but the foundation of effective, sustainable leadership.

🔹 What We Talk About:

💡 CALM Resilience – How leaders can manage stress, foster connection, and lead with purpose.

👩🏽‍🏫 From Chalk to Consulting – Vinita’s inspiring evolution from Principal to leadership coach.
