From Self-Doubt to Self-Worth | Navixha Bagga on Confidence, Seva and Inner Growth

What happens when a woman moves from waiting for validation to claiming her own spotlight?

In this episode of Unstoppable Woman, Shailja Saraswati sits with Navixha Bagga for a conversation that goes far beyond the visible corporate and coaching journey. Together, they explore the inner shift from self-doubt to self-worth, from silence to voice, from external validation to inner authority, and from surviving to thriving.

Navixha Bagga is a corporate leader turned coach and wellness guide whose journey spans IT boardrooms, spiritual practice, seva, and emotional mastery. She speaks with striking honesty about childhood introversion, the power of breathwork, confronting workplace bullying, the role of seva in building resilience, and the transformation that comes when you stop waiting for permission and start claiming your own worth.

This episode is about:

Standing up for yourself with courage

Why self-worth begins with self-treatment

How seva builds skills and resilience

The shift from external validation to inner authority

Balancing corporate success with inner growth

Action-oriented coaching and a growth mindset

What makes this conversation powerful is not just Navixha’s story, but the depth of inquiry itself. Shailja draws out the human transformation beneath the professional narrative—the part rarely discussed, yet often the most important.

If you are navigating growth, reinvention, ambition, or inner change, this episode may feel less like content and more like recognition.

Watch till the end for a moving reflection on the unstoppable spirit in women.
