Aarushi Nair reposted thisAarushi Nair reposted thisNearly one thousand brilliant leaders, researchers, builders, and technologists across the tech ecosystem have just been notified that their sessions are heading to the GHC 26 stage and I couldn’t be more proud. 💜 Congratulations to every speaker whose proposal was greenlit. You represent the bold ideas, lived experiences, and future-focused thinking that make the Grace Hopper Celebration unlike any other tech convening. Your voices will help shape the conversations that matter most as we gather this October in Anaheim, California, and online with our global community joining from around the world. To everyone else reading this: this is your moment to be part of it. Early Bird registration for GHC 26 is now open, and it is our most accessible entry point to experiencing GHC in person and virtually, October 27–30. Whether you come to Anaheim or join us online, GHC is where opportunity, community, and innovation converge. This year at GHC, AI isn’t a track: it’s the context. It’s embedded in conversations about leadership, product, ethics, workforce, and power. Because the real question isn’t whether AI will change everything. It’s whether *everyone* will get to shape what it becomes. Artificial intelligence cannot fully emulate the human capacity for forming communities that facilitate substantive and transformative dialogue and the solutions to our complex problems. Inherently human qualities such as joy, hope, imagination, and empathy are only enhanced through collective engagement. And a reminder: becoming an AnitaB.org Member deepens that experience 365, unlocking year-round connection, resources, and pathways to grow, lead, and thrive in tech well beyond the conference. Plus, you get great discounts! The stage is set. The speakers are ready. I hope you’ll join us. 👉🏾 Register early and be part of GHC 26. https://ghc.anitab.org/ #womenintech #GraceHopperCelebration #leadership #AI #Community AnitaB.org

Aarushi Nair shared thisMy heart is full and my perspective is altered after the 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 𝟐𝟓. Being surrounded by thousands of women technologists and allies in Bengaluru for three days truly embodied the theme, 𝑼𝒏𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅. Watching our team and the entire community; hold both the grand vision and the quiet, crucial details reinforced my strongest belief: leadership isn't about control; it's about shaping the conditions for others to thrive. Dive into my full reflection on the long runway, the celebration itself, and the lessons I'm carrying forward 👉 https://lnkd.in/gDSqFCQD 💜 #AnitaBorg #Unbound #GHCI #GHCI25 #GHCI2025 #GraceHopperCelebrationIndia #AnitaBorgIndia #GraceHopperIndia #AnitaBindia #InclusiveTech #WomenoftheFuture #WomenInSTEM #WomenInTech #Leadership #TechCommunity #Inclusion #FutureOfTech #GHC #GHC25 #GHC2025 #GraceHopper #GraceHopperRoadShow #GraceHopperCelebration #GraceHopperCelebration25 #GraceHopperCelebration2025Unbound in Bengaluru: Inside GHCI 2025 and the Community Rewriting What’s PossibleUnbound in Bengaluru: Inside GHCI 2025 and the Community Rewriting What’s Possible

Aarushi Nair shared thisStill stuck in a bit of a time loop — I can’t believe 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 25 has actually come to an end. The last three days were a whirlwind of connection and community… and this little video captures just a fraction of that energy. This celebration is built by people who care deeply, and I’m endlessly grateful for every single one of them. Big shoutout to my phenomenal AnitaB.org India team — thank you for being so supportive and for quite literally running alongside me till the finish line 😅💙 Especially grateful to Shreya Krishnan — thank you for springing up that impromptu thank-you moment on stage, giving me the space to speak straight from the heart. And my love and gratitude to Arushi and Divya — true powerhouses and such an essential extension of the team. Couldn’t have done this without you. 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚 always reminds me why this community is so extraordinary — and why we must continue to imagine, build, disrupt and lead… 𝐔𝐧𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝. Until next year — but for now, here’s to 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 25. 💙 Karen D'Mello, Priya Chawla, Pranalika Mahanta #AnitaBorg #Unbound #GHCI #GHCI25 #GHCI2025 #GraceHopperCelebrationIndia #AnitaBorgIndia #GraceHopperIndia #AnitaBindia #InclusiveTech #WomenoftheFuture #WomenInSTEM #WomenInTech #Leadership #TechCommunity #Inclusion #FutureOfTech #GHC #GHC25 #GHC2025 #GraceHopper #GraceHopperRoadShow #GraceHopperCelebration #GraceHopperCelebration25 #GraceHopperCelebration2025

Aarushi Nair shared this𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟑 — 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 𝟐𝟓 Today is about depth, clarity and closure. Whether you’re attending sessions, exploring the Expo, or spending time in the Unconference, Art Nook, Book Nook or Zen Zone — make space for conversations you don’t want to leave with “𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒔𝒉 𝑰 𝒉𝒂𝒅…” 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐚 has a wonderful way of bringing the right people and ideas your way when you stay open.

Aarushi Nair shared this𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝟐 𝐚𝐭 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 𝟐𝟓 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐦 The tracks were rich, the sessions thoughtful, and the Expo Hall absolutely alive with ideas and innovation. I loved seeing attendees move between conversations, demos, and community spaces — soaking in everything 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 stands for. As we head into the final day, revisit your schedule, reflect on one insight that stood out today, and reconnect with someone you met — 𝐆𝐇𝐂𝐈 is built on these small but meaningful threads.

Aarushi Nair reacted on thisAarushi Nair reacted on this100,000. I paused before writing this. Because milestones are strange things. They look like numbers. But they carry meaning. This is less about me, and more a celebration of the fact that… 100,000 of you are in conversation with these ideas. ➡️ Ideas about what it means to live and lead consciously. ➡️ About building a more inclusive world - where “half the sky” (women) rises fully. ➡️ About doing the inner work that shapes how we show up on the outside. If you’re new here, a little about me: ✨ I’m a global citizen - I’ve lived in 8 countries, from the U.S. to India to now Singapore. ✨ I’m drawn to the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern science. ✨ I facilitate leadership work rooted in mindfulness and positive psychology. ✨ I’m committed to helping more women step into positions of real impact. ✨ I wrote The Conscious Choice - exploring how small, everyday choices can shape our lives. ✨ I believe the quality of our external world is a reflection of our internal one. This isn’t just content for me. It’s a body of work. A quiet attempt to make leadership more conscious. And the world a little more compassionate. Thank you for being part of it. And thank you for choosing depth in a world optimized for noise. I’d love to know: What about my work/content resonates with you? And what ideas would you like me to dive into further? ➕ Follow me, Bhavna Toor, for daily content on living and leading consciously.

Aarushi Nair liked thisAarushi Nair liked this"Raise your hand if you have delivered consistently strong results, been told you are ready for more — and still watched that next big role go somewhere else." Every single hand in the room went up. Shreya Krishnan, Managing Director India at AnitaB.org, took the stage as our Keynote Speaker at Being CEO Ready — 3rd Edition and did not let that moment pass. She sat in it. Because that raised hand is the story of too many women who are visible, capable, delivering — and still not the CEO. She talked about the traffic light in every woman's head. The one nobody installed consciously but everyone is running on. It turns red when you are about to ask for more. Amber when you are about to take up space. Green only when you are small enough, shrunk enough, palatable enough for everyone else to be comfortable. She named it for what it is — not a personality trait. A survival strategy. One that has long outlived its welcome. Then she put the numbers on the screen. 30.6% of senior leadership roles held by women globally. 10.4% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. In India — 2%. And then she said what the data actually means. The gap is not in talent. It is in selection. We are building leaders. We are just not selecting them. She taught the room an NLP hack — the tongue drop exercise — to interrupt the voice of self-doubt mid-spiral. She asked everyone to close their eyes and rate that inner voice of self-doubt on a scale of one to five. Then place the tip of the tongue where the lower teeth meet the lower palate. Within thirty seconds, the number dropped across the room. That, she said, is the power we have over the spaces we can occupy. And yet we are constantly stripped of it. She ended with a poem she wrote — Being Brave, Her Kind of Beautiful. And by the time the last line landed, the room was not just applauding. It was transformed. Being CEO ready is not outside you. It is in you. It always was. BAGGGEL Foundation is a community built for women on the CEO journey — learning, growing, and leading together.

Aarushi Nair liked thisAarushi Nair liked thisI lost thousands of dollars my first year as a full-time entrepreneur. All because I had zero system for tracking my expenses (which I found out the hard way during tax season). So this tax season, I’m using BILL to manage all of my invoices and expenses. → It reads and pulls data from my invoices automatically → Flags anything that looks like a duplicate → The AI learns my patterns over time, so it gets more accurate without me doing more work I'm not manually entering any numbers a single number anymore. And as someone running a multi-six figure business, those time savings really add up for me. If you're freelancing, creating, or building anything on your own, get a real system with BILL before tax season humbles you too 😅 You can try BILL for yourself using the link in my comments below 👇

Aarushi Nair reacted on thisAarushi Nair reacted on thisThe moments you realize your parents are getting older. Every time I go back home to India, I notice my parents getting older. I’m sure you’ve felt it too, if you live away from family. → When you notice your dad is walking slower than you. → When your mom asks you to read the label on a bottle because the font is too small. → When your dad lets you carry the heavy bag without arguing. → When your mom’s hands feel rough like sandpaper. → When your dad starts to fall asleep at 8 pm. → When your mom needs to take rest while walking a long stretch. → When your dad’s handwriting looks shakier than you remembered. → When you notice wrinkles that you never saw on your mom’s face. — Time moves quietly, but quickly. This is a reminder to myself - and maybe to you - that they have more yesterdays than tomorrows. Call them more. Talk to them more. 💕 — 🌿 Re-post if this resonated. 👉 Become the earliest reader of my upcoming novel, 1000 Days of Love, a story of love and loss: https://lnkd.in/geEewFSX

Aarushi Nair reacted on thisAarushi Nair reacted on thisThe problem isn't that you're not ready. It's that waiting for ready is a trap. One day you’ll wish you’d started sooner. Not because you weren’t capable. Because your brain got very good at waiting. That’s what repetition does. The brain wires around what you practice. So when you keep delaying the conversation, the launch, the boundary, the ask, the leap, your nervous system starts to treat hesitation like safety. And the longer that pattern runs, the more normal it feels to stay where you are. That’s the danger. A lot of people think they’re waiting for the right time. But often they’re just reinforcing avoidance. And avoidance is tricky. It can sound responsible. Strategic. Thoughtful. But underneath it, your brain is often doing what it does best: protecting you from uncertainty, rejection, failure, and loss of control. Your amygdala doesn't care how important the dream is. It cares whether the move feels risky. So it whispers: Not yet. Wait a little longer. Get more proof. Think about it more. Try when you feel ready. And then a season passes. Then another. Then another. Meanwhile, the life you want is still sitting on the other side of a few brave decisions. Action gives your brain evidence that forward is safe enough. It interrupts the threat loop. It gives your prefrontal cortex something new to work with. It builds self-trust. Because you stop treating fear like it gets the final vote. That’s how people change. Not when they finally feel fearless. When they move before certainty shows up. 3 things you can do now: 1️⃣ Take one real action in 24 hours Send the message. Book the meeting. Post the idea. Make the ask. Small action weakens avoidance and teaches the brain that movement is survivable. 2️⃣ Name the exact fear Write down what you think will happen. The brain handles specific fear better than vague fear. Clarity lowers neural noise. 3️⃣ Repeat one brave behavior this week Not ten things. One thing. One hard conversation. One visible move. One act of courage done more than once. That’s how rewiring happens. Your future is being shaped by what you keep practicing now. So practice movement. Practice courage. Practice telling the truth. Practice choosing the life you actually want. Fear will always make a convincing argument. But hope deserves a vote too. Choose now. P.S. What have you been waiting for?

Our moderator Cathal McCarthy takes us through a journey and by the end of this conversation you will be asking where your own personal values begin so you can end with where your AI's values start. Our panelists bring amazing backgrounds and experiences and I for one can't wait to dive into these incredibly important questions that will have us all thinking differently.
