On Your Terms
One powerful insight each week to reframe how you think about work & grow your career with intention—without sacrificing your sanity, family, or freedom.
Who Am I?
Hey folks! Thanks for stopping by.
I’m Raghav—ex-Googler, entrepreneur, dad, and now a writer (I guess!?)—juggling career, family, and a mission to help others do the same.
With over 15 years of experience at Fortune 500 companies like Schneider Electric and Google, I’ve worked at the intersection of innovation, leadership, and strategy—and learned what it really takes to grow your career in tech and corporate without losing yourself.
I don’t have all the answers.
But I’ve learned how to grow with intention—without burning out or falling into the trap of performative hustle.
Why I Started This
I spent over a decade chasing conventional success:
Big roles. Big logos. Bigger paychecks.
But beneath the surface, I was running on fumes.
Promotions came, but so did burnout.
I was building a career—but not a life.
That wake-up call forced me to rethink everything:
What success actually meant
What truly mattered
And how I wanted to show up in the world
This newsletter is the product of that shift.
My mission is to condense 15+ years of corporate learning into practical, actionable guidance—to help you grow your career while honoring your life.
What You’ll Get
Every Friday, I’ll send you grounded, real-world insights to help you:
Grow your career with intention
Break through mental and professional plateaus
Make better work-life decisions—without guilt
Redefine success on your own terms
No fluff. No platitudes.
Just honest, hard-won guidance from someone who’s lived both sides of the game—from corporate hustler to intentional leader.
Who This Is For
This is for mid-career professionals—especially millennials—who are:
Feeling stuck or under-recognized
Balancing ambition with a growing family
Tired of outdated rules and ready to build something more meaningful
Final Note
Success shouldn’t cost your peace.
Growth shouldn’t come at the expense of your life.
You deserve a career that works for you.
Let’s build it—On Your Terms.
