My Story
A Journey of Advocacy,
Purpose and Reinvention
Over four decades at the intersection of policy advocacy, corporate strategy, communications, social impact, sports development, and emotional wellbeing.
Biography
Four Decades. Many Roles. One Purpose.
From corporate corridors and policy advocacy to sports, social impact and emotional wellbeing, my journey has been shaped by curiosity, courage, continuous learning and the willingness to reinvent.
My professional journey began more than four decades ago, when women were still finding their space in many areas of corporate India. I entered with no grand blueprint—only the determination to learn, work hard and create my own place at the table.
My career took me through communications, corporate affairs, policy advocacy, telecommunications, sustainability and sports, with the privilege of working with leading organisations during transformational periods in Indian business.
Nearly three decades were spent with Reliance Industries. Those years taught me to think big, pursue dreams with conviction, contribute to nation-building and, above all, believe that there is no gender at work.
Advocacy became more than a profession. It taught me the power of conversations—listening, understanding perspectives, building trust and finding common ground to influence meaningful change.
My journey into sports—from football development and grassroots initiatives to sports governance and major sporting platforms—showed me how sport can transform young lives and strengthen communities. It also deepened my commitment to opportunities for women and girls.
Over time, another question began to shape my purpose: We invest in careers, education and physical health, but how much do we invest in understanding our minds and emotions?
That question led me to create DayaRani Wellness Advisory, a preventive emotional wellbeing think tank named in tribute to my parents.
Today, as a Mindset Mentor, I bring together four decades of experience to engage with young people, professionals and women navigating change, ambition and self-doubt.
I have moved on from corporate life, but I have certainly not retired from purpose.
I am beginning again—with experience behind me, curiosity within me and many more conversations ahead.

Sports & Leadership
Building Platforms for Indian Sports
Her influence extended into Indian sports, where she contributed to building platforms that helped professionalise and democratise sports in India, including key initiatives in football development, sports governance, and youth talent ecosystems. She has consistently championed women’s inclusion in leadership and sports.
Reinvention & Wellness
Founding DayaRani Wellness Advisory
After years of success in corporate leadership, Priti chose to channel her experience into purpose-led work by founding DayaRani Wellness Advisory, a preventive emotional wellness think tank focused on helping individuals understand emotional wellbeing not as stigma, but as a daily life skill.
Her motivation came from a simple but powerful observation: People invest in careers, education, and physical health—but often neglect emotional health, which silently shapes how we think, react, decide, and live.
Through DayaRani, she has worked to normalize conversations around emotional wellbeing, especially among students, professionals, and institutions. Her work spans awareness workshops, emotional wellness advocacy, mentorship, and ecosystem-building with educators, NGOs, experts, and community partners.
As a mindset mentor, Priti increasingly dedicates herself to guiding young professionals and students through modern anxieties—career uncertainty, workplace pressures, self-doubt, work-life balance, and emotional resilience.
