Shradha Salla, Life Coach, Motivational Speaker And Founder of “I Love Me,” on the Power of Self-Love and Conscious Transformation

You’ve spent over 18 years guiding people toward clarity and self-transformation. What initially drew you to the world of life coaching, numerology, and healing, and how has your journey evolved over the years?

After both my daughters were born I wanted to explore a new field and that's how my journey into life coaching, numerology, and healing began with a deep curiosity about human behaviour and the unseen energies that shape our lives. I’ve always been drawn to understanding why people think, feel, and act the way they do and how subtle shifts in awareness can transform their entire reality.

Over 18 years ago, what started as a personal quest for meaning and balance gradually evolved into a calling to help others find the same clarity. I began exploring traditional coaching techniques alongside ancient sciences like numerology, astrology, tarot, Vastu and energy healing realizing that true transformation happens when the mind, body, and spirit are aligned.

With time, my work has become more intuitive and holistic. Today, I combine structured coaching methods with intuitive guidance and spiritual insight, helping individuals not just solve problems, but realign with their purpose, heal their patterns, and create lives that feel authentic and fulfilling.

Over the past 18 years, this journey has evolved from personal exploration to purposeful service. I’ve learned that transformation isn’t about changing who we are, but remembering who we’ve always been beneath the layers of conditioning. Today, my work blends intuitive wisdom with practical guidance helping people find clarity, release limiting patterns, and realign with their authentic path. It’s been a journey of growth, grace, and continuous learning, both for myself and for those I have the privilege to guide.

“I Love Me” is such a powerful statement. Can you share the inspiration behind the brand and what this philosophy means to you personally and professionally?

"I Love Me” was born from a very personal realization that self-love isn’t selfish, it’s foundational. For years, I saw how people, including myself, often gave endlessly to others while neglecting their own emotional and energetic needs. I wanted to create a space and a philosophy that reminded people that everything healing, success, relationships, and even spirituality begins with how deeply you value and honour yourself.

Personally, “I Love Me” is a daily practice. It’s about embracing both my light and my shadows, allowing myself to grow, and choosing compassion over criticism. Professionally, it’s the core of my work helping individuals reconnect with their worth, release guilt, and step into their authentic power.

“I Love Me” isn’t just a brand it’s a movement of self-awareness, acceptance, and empowerment. When we truly love ourselves, we become aligned, magnetic, and capable of creating the life we desire from a place of wholeness.

 Shradha Salla, Life Coach, Motivational Speaker, and expert in astrology, numerology, tarot & Vastu: blending ancient wisdom with modern transformation.

 As a life coach and motivational speaker, you interact with people from all walks of life from entrepreneurs and celebrities to students and families. How do you tailor your approach to address such diverse needs?

Every individual carries a unique story, set of challenges, and energy and that’s where my work truly begins. Whether I’m guiding an entrepreneur, a celebrity, a student, or a family, my approach is always rooted in deep listening and intuitive understanding. I first connect to where they are emotionally and energetically, before guiding them to where they want to be.

For entrepreneurs, the focus is often on clarity, leadership, and balancing purpose with pressure. For students, it’s about building confidence and direction. Families may need harmony and communication healing, while public figures often seek grounding amidst constant visibility.

I blend practical tools like goal mapping and mindset training with intuitive modalities such as numerology and energy alignment. This allows me to offer not just strategies, but transformation that’s authentic and sustainable.

Ultimately, while every story is different, the goal remains the same to help each person reconnect with their inner power, clarity, and truth.

Your work beautifully blends ancient sciences like astrology, tarot, and Vastu with modern coaching methods. How do you strike this balance to make your sessions both transformative and practical?

For me, true transformation happens when ancient wisdom meets modern awareness. The sciences of astrology, tarot, and Vastu carry timeless truths about energy, purpose, and alignment but to create real change, those insights need to be applied in a way that’s relevant to today’s fast-paced world.

In my sessions, I use these ancient tools as gateways to self-awareness they reveal patterns, karmic lessons, and energetic imbalances. Then, through modern coaching methods, I help clients translate that awareness into action setting clear intentions, shifting mindsets, and making conscious choices in their personal and professional lives.

It’s about creating harmony between the mystical and the measurable. The wisdom of the past provides depth and direction, while the structure of coaching ensures grounded, practical results. That’s where the magic truly happens when spirituality becomes a lived experience, not just a concept.

Mental wellness has become a central conversation globally. In your experience, what are some of the most common challenges people face today, and how can self-love play a role in addressing them?

One of the biggest challenges people face today is emotional exhaustion the constant pressure to perform, please, and keep up with the pace of life. Many are silently battling anxiety, self-doubt, and comparison, often feeling disconnected from their true selves. Social media and modern expectations have amplified the need to “appear fine,” even when we’re not.

In my experience, the root of most emotional struggles lies in a lack of self-connection. That’s where self-love becomes not just a concept, but a lifeline. When we start valuing ourselves setting boundaries, listening to our emotions, and nurturing our inner world we begin to heal from within. Self-love builds emotional resilience, clarity, and authenticity.

It’s not about being perfect or positive all the time; it’s about being present with yourself with compassion. When people reconnect with that energy of “I am enough,” mental wellness naturally follows. It’s the most powerful foundation for lasting peace and transformation.

You’ve built a trusted brand with clients not only across India but also globally. What have been some of your key milestones or turning points in growing “I Love Me” into a respected name?

Building “I Love Me” has been a journey of passion, learning, and evolving with every client interaction. One of the earliest milestones was realizing that self-love and personal transformation are universal the principles I shared resonated not just in India, but across borders. That insight encouraged me to expand my reach globally, offering workshops, online sessions, and retreats that connected with diverse audiences.

A key turning point was when high-profile entrepreneurs and thought leaders began endorsing the work. It wasn’t about recognition, but validation that the approach was impactful, practical, and transformative. Another defining moment was leveraging digital platforms to create accessible tools, courses, and coaching programs, which allowed “I Love Me” to touch thousands of lives worldwide.

Through every milestone, the focus has remained the same authenticity, clarity, and helping people reconnect with their inner power. The brand’s growth is a reflection of the trust clients place in the work and the transformative experiences they carry forward in their lives

As a woman entrepreneur in the wellness space, what have been some of your personal challenges and triumphs along the way?

Being a woman entrepreneur in wellness has had more triumphs than challenges for me any challenge is something I quickly turn into a solution. The only navigation I always need to do is balancing personal and professional life. But these experiences became my greatest teachers, pushing me to be resilient and authentic. The biggest triumph has been building “I Love Me” into a trusted global platform and witnessing countless lives transform through self-love and clarity

Looking ahead, what is your vision for “I Love Me” on a global scale? How do you plan to take your message of self-love, healing, and empowerment to new audiences?

My vision for “I Love Me” is to make self-love, healing, and empowerment accessible to people everywhere, regardless of geography or background. I want to create a global community where individuals can reconnect with their inner power, release limiting patterns, and live authentically.

To reach new audiences, I plan to expand digital offerings, including workshops, online courses, and interactive experiences, while collaborating with like-minded leaders and organizations worldwide. The goal is to blend ancient wisdom with modern tools, creating practical, transformative guidance that resonates across cultures. Ultimately, it’s about inspiring a ripple effect empowering individuals to lead conscious, fulfilled lives and carry that energy forward into their communities.
