About me

I know what it’s like to step into spaces where you don’t feel like you belong—to be the first in your family, community, or workplace to navigate challenges others never had to face. As a first-generation professional, I had to figure out my own way forward, breaking past doubt and expectations to build a career that aligned with who I am. That experience shaped my mission: to help others do the same — without feeling like they have to shrink or prove themselves to belong.

I’m Baljinder Athwal (Bal) a Certified Coach (ICF) and former HR leader with over a decade of experience in career development, leadership, and team coaching. My work focuses on helping first-generation professionals and leaders break barriers, thrive in their careers, and lead with confidence. Whether you’re navigating a career transition, stepping into leadership, or figuring out what success really looks like for you, I provide the tools, strategy, and support to help you move forward—on your terms.

Beyond working with individuals, I also partner with SMEs and leadership teams to build inclusive, high-performing workplaces. Combining my expertise in HR, coaching, and cultural awareness, I help businesses create stronger teams, confident leaders, and thriving company cultures.

Success isn’t about fitting into someone else’s mold—it’s about carving out your own path. If you’re ready to build a future that aligns with who you are, let’s talk.
