Meet Gouri
My Journey
I spent over three decades in the corporate world—managing complex teams, solving technical problems, and always pushing forward. From the outside, I had everything “figured out.” But slowly, I began to feel disconnected from my own self.
Burnout crept in. So did self-doubt.
At first, I tried to power through it—like I always had. But something told me to pause. That maybe strength wasn’t about pushing harder, but listening deeper.
I found myself drawn to counseling—not just as a client, but as a calling. I studied, trained, and over time, started helping others navigate what I had once faced alone.
That’s how The Listening Tree began. As a quiet space for people to pause, reflect, and rediscover their own inner voice.
What I believe In
I believe that growth begins with self-awareness. When we pause to listen inward, even the most difficult moments can reveal something essential.
Everyone carries a story that deserves to be understood—not judged or fixed. My role isn’t to provide answers, but to help you hear your own voice more clearly.
In a noisy world, I believe in creating space for quiet reflection—and trusting what arises from it.
