Pinky N. D. Kansara

Pinky N.  Kansara is a woman of quiet strength and profound purpose. As the founder of Belong to Yourself, a transformative brand rooted in emotional resilience, self-leadership, and inner alignment, she brings nearly three decades of professional experience to her mission of empowering others. With 20 years spent in senior leadership and HR roles, Pinky is a certified REBT (Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy) practitioner, Emotional Intelligence Specialist, and Leadership Strategist who believes that emotions are not distractions—they are strategic forces for connection, motivation, and meaningful change.

Her journey, however, extends far beyond titles and certifications. In 2022, after dedicating 27 years to the corporate world, she made the conscious decision to step away—not out of burnout, but in response to a deeper calling. This shift allowed her to focus on coaching, mentoring, and writing, all with the goal of helping people lead with authenticity, empathy, and emotional awareness.

Pinky’s first book, Belong to Yourself (published on October 3, 2023), is a heartfelt tribute to self-connection and spiritual alignment. In it, she shares that belonging to oneself is not just about physical solitude but a deeper, spiritual space where one meets the real self. The book invites readers to slow down, face their insecurities, silence the external noise, and reflect on their journey. It is a call to recognize that through every moment—good or bad—the one constant presence has been the self. And thus, the ultimate relationship one must nurture is with oneself. This work became a movement in itself, especially for women who strive to remain emotionally self-reliant and spiritually grounded.

Her second book, Empowering Emotional Awareness (published on April 29, 2025), expands her philosophy into the world of leadership, personal development, and emotional intelligence. Aimed at corporate leaders, professionals, coaches, and individuals on the path of inner transformation, the book is a practical and gentle guide. In a world that often rewards control and composure, it makes space for vulnerability as a leadership strength. Through the lens of emotional regulation and self-awareness, Pinky empowers readers to understand their inner world, harness their emotions, and lead—with clarity, compassion, and confidence.

Known globally as The Compassionate Indian, Pinky Kansara is a thought leader who champions kindness, clarity, and emotional wellbeing in leadership. Her unique approach combines emotional intelligence with strategic insight, helping individuals and organisations transform not just how they work, but how they feel at work.

She believes deeply that vulnerability is not a weakness but a strength—that true leadership is about taking care of others while being fully in tune with oneself. Whether through her books, coaching, or global community initiatives, Pinky Kansara continues to light the path for those ready to lead from the heart.

As she often says:

“Leadership is not about being in charge; it's about taking care of those in your charge, including yourself. Embrace your vulnerability, trust your journey, and lead with heart.”

Or in her native words:

Umeed karni hai toh khudse kar,

Bharosa rakhna hai toh khud par rakh,

Khud ki bhawnaon ki kadar kar,

Bas apna hausla mazboot kar.
