    2025/04/19

    In this powerful Autism Awareness Month episode, we speak with Sharadha Ramakrishnan, an Engineering Coach at Digits who previously led a 50+ person team at Yelp before transforming her life by moving back to Chennai, India after 12 years in California.

    Sharadha's perspective on freedom and identity dramatically shifted when she became a mother, particularly as she navigated raising her neurodivergent son alongside her neurotypical daughter.

    In this episode we explore:

    • The contrast between Western individualism and the "it takes a village" philosophy that changed her parenting experience
    • How cultural differences between the US and India reshape the parenting journey
    • Strategies for building support systems when facing healthcare challenges like therapy waitlists
    • Balancing professional identity with the transformative experience of raising a neurodivergent child


    Perfect for anyone seeking to build their own community of support or struggling to bring their whole self to both parenting and professional spaces.

    This conversation offers both validation and practical wisdom on finding freedom within the complex intersections of culture, career, and neurodiversity.

    Whether you're struggling with burnout, questioning your ambition, or seeking practical ways to build resilient children while climbing the career ladder, this episode delivers both emotional reassurance and actionable strategies.


    Gifty's personal journey through health crisis, career achievements, and raising boys to adulthood provides a roadmap for redefining success on your own terms.
