Life is not a fairy tale.

In fact for most of us it is just a tale we need to fight. Tackling the bad twist that life delivers is never easy.

In spite of knowing that awful times don’t last, it takes a resilient spirit, made of steel, to walk through those episodes and come through unscathed.

The honest truth is nobody comes through uninjured.

They emerge strong.

Yet to go through fire, sustaining it till times change for the better, is a mammoth task.

It cannot happen alone. It cannot be done alone.

It is our dependable group of encouraging buddies, our North Star, who help us rise as a formidable new person from any blow that we may be facing.

ExpressO Talks forms that circle of positivity you can turn to when hit by a new low. Sharing your issues and arriving at a possible solution can make you buoyant once again.

Your story surely can inspire another so let’s share!💫🌈

Bharti Gehani’s life story is nothing short of true inspiration. A successful professional with expertise in the PR Industry, Bharti began her career and grew into the position of General Manager at SVA Spa and Salon. Goal-oriented yet carefree, energetic and full of life, Bharti embodies all the qualities of a today’s confident working woman. However, the journey till here has been full of challenges that only a person with immense courage and determination could overcome.

In 2008, Bharti met with an accident that altered life as she knew it. She suffered serious spinal injuries that left her a paraplegic and she had to cope with multiple surgeries, including two brain surgeries, countless healing therapies as well as what seemed like an endless recovery time. However, throughout this, Bharti insisted on staying positive and looking at the bright side of things – the fact that she was alive, had survived this ordeal and was surrounded by people who loved her. The accident may have changed her lifestyle forever, but it couldn’t shake her dreams.
