A Conversation with Kamini Wood, Life Coach and CEO of Live Joy Your Way Coaching Company

Kamini Wood, who grew up in a small Connecticut town as a first-generation American with immigrant parents. Early in her life, she navigated the complexities of identity and belonging. Feeling the pressure to blend in and seek external validation, she excelled academically and in helping others, driven by the belief that hard work equaled acceptance.

Becoming a mother of five while pursuing a career as a certified project manager, she realized her identity was externally defined. Raising high-performing young adults, she recognized people-pleasing behaviors in her children and felt a deep calling to reclaim her authenticity and self-leadership.

Seeking to realign with her true self, she embarked on a journey of self-discovery and self-validation. Becoming a certified life coach, she dove into her own self-work, learning to honor her feelings and emotions without judgment. Through self-compassion and self-love, she evolved into her own self-leader.

Today, as CEO and Founder of Live Joy Your Way and AuthenticMe®Life Coaching, she empowers high-performing adults and young adults struggling with self-doubt and the need for external validation. Her mission is to help others recognize their true value and stop outsourcing their self-worth
