About Divya
Divya Chandegra is a former agency delivery lead with over 20 years of experience leading teams in high-pressure professional environments and delivering multi-million pound programmes of work.
She is a NYT best-selling author and creator of Micro-State Control™.
Her work focuses on the invisible patterns high-functioning women mistake for normal.
The roles they unconsciously step into.
The expectations they carry.
The behaviours they've repeated for so long they now feel like personality.
Drawing on leadership experience, behavioural insight and years of working with women navigating pressure across multiple roles, Divya helps women recognise what they've normalised, understand the hidden cost of it and question the patterns that shape how they experience work, relationships, success and everyday life.
Her conversations explore the space between coping and thriving, responsibility and self-abandonment, capability and capacity, and why some of the things women are most praised for may be the very things quietly costing them the most.
