ABOUT

Shivani Pathak, founder of Next Gen Money Coach, is a Certified Money Coach (CMC)® and Mind-Body Practitioner.

She has enjoyed working across the US, UK, and India, starting her career at Estée Lauder in New York, before moving into the start-up world as an operator at scale-ups backed by the likes of Rocket Internet, Gartner, and Battery Ventures. In addition to her work as an operator, Shivani was a one time founder in the jewellery industry. After a decade in the luxury and consumer tech industries, Shivani pivoted her career to follow a personal interest in coaching.

My journey into financial well-being has been rooted in my own experience.  Thanks to well-planned financial education at home, I was fortunate to develop healthy financial habits during my childhood and teenage years. However, as I took on more financial responsibility in my late twenties, I began to feel anxious about money and the role it played in my life, which had a negative impact on my personal and professional decisions.

It wasn’t until I sought Money Coaching that I was able to confront these emotions and experience a profound shift. I learned to view money as a tool—something to be mastered in pursuit of my goals, rather than a source of fear or identity. As my relationship with money improved, my sense of self did as well. The anxiety gave way to confidence, clarity, and a deeper understanding of my own capabilities, values and path in life.

This newfound peace has unlocked a powerful energy that fuels my productivity and sense of purpose, and inspired me to launch Next Gen Money Coach.
