Prachi is a psychologist and therapist living in Mumbai, India. She holds a Postgraduate in Sports Psychology from Stirling, Scotland, and a minor degree in Counselling Psychology, BA in Psychology from Mumbai, India. After a year of interning in England as a sports therapist, she is working as a behavioural therapist for children with special education needs. She has been working as a therapist for 2 years currently and her experience ranges from knowing and understanding people of a different set of ages.

She is the only child in her family so it got lonely a lot of times. With time she got into the habit of being lonely and therefore started finding solace in nature, books, automobiles and music. With an early diagnosis of mild ADD, getting interested in anything was a huge task in itself. An introvert at heart, books are the best friends that she could ask for. She is especially fond of thriller, mystery and detective stories and loves reading Agatha Christie, and Arthur Conan Doyle, along with various comic books. She loves hiking and going on nature trails with her bike.

Being born in the outskirts of a big city like Mumbai made her realise the huge difference in the life of cities and small towns. She has travelled extensively to different countries and enjoys travelling. That made her appreciate the countryside even more because of its slow-paced environment than the fast-paced running of the cities. These subtle learning increased her interest, curiosity about human thoughts and behaviour, all different kinds of sports, music, history and art which made her passion for writing a way of narrating her personal experience.

The increasing interest in watching different kinds of sports during the Olympics made her stronger in identifying the strategies and planning that different sports use. She was in awe of the strength and the mental capacities that the athletes have when they are on their stage to perform.

Learning and knowing about things that have always influenced human behaviour is the reason why she chose psychology. When she was a child, she was fascinated by history and art realising that they talk in detail about how human society and their development in these subjects. She believes that every subject, all of us are linked to each other and would love to explore all with meeting new and different kinds of people every day.

Meeting different people in daily life, and learning about their life gives me a new perspective to appreciate life in every sense. The ‘world’ certainly seems too big but feels closer when we find people with whom we can talk without hesitations. With billions of perspectives in mind, it is a pleasure to show the world a single person’s stories.

The motto in her life is a quote by Annette White which says, “If you never dream, you will never know the endless possibilities of what you can become”. There are times when in this rush of achieving things we fall behind on fulfilling our dreams. Some of us get so far behind the life that we wanted we completely forget about our inspiration and will to live for ourselves. It’s a sad part but we are losing the curiosity and imagination the more we grow up.

Her target especially with her articles is not only to gain the facts about the topic but also to develop curiosity about the topics that are right in front of our eyes but not talked about enough.
