For 8 years I served in the U.S. Army. When I decided to get out I had a degree, but couldn't find work. So I decided to stay home with the kids. I had such a wonderful time watching them grow and instilling such great things in them. After I had my 3rd child I decided it was time for me to do something. I knew what I didn't what to do, but wasn't sure what to call this thing I loved helping others do. After reading some blogs and books I realized that I loved branding specifically brand development. I love helping business understand who they are so that they can influence the customers perspective of their business. The beautiful thing about branding it that it works for everyone. From influencer to large corporation. This is why I started Quest Business Consulting. My goal is to help organizations be the best version of themselves and attract their ideal customer.

Hi. I am Akshita Sanghvi. I am a Chartered Accountant turned Coach, an International Speaker and an Author. Since childhood, I would always think little of myself. That feeling of inferiority led me to think that people made fun of me and that nobody loved me. This thought prevented me from making friends and I stopped socializing. I still remember the first day of my college, where I bursted in tears because of this fear I had. Becoming a Chartered Accountant became an escape for me by involving myself deeper into studies so that I do not have to face people anymore. I spent 8 years studying and working hard but inside I knew somehow I was stopping my feelings and expressions. After I got married, this inherent fear did not allow me to even open up with my partner and my new family. All of these built up emotions led me towards the search of “How can I make things better?” I looked into a lot of Motivational videos which my husband kept sending me but it did not work anyway. Because I was determined, it led me to my journey of Transformation in 2019. I realized that it is a journey which helps you find your Identity and not temporary motivation which I was looking for. I spent a lot of time and money evolving and expressing myself by taking action every single time. My journey of transformation helped me break the pattern of hiding behind the curtains to now being able to connect with thousands of people all across the Globe. Today, I work with people on their inner mindset to help them find their Real Identity. In over 4 years, I have impacted 20,000+ lives across 16 countries so far and I know it is just the beginning……
