About Shalini: 


The revelation on her personal journey is profound—she firmly believes that the path to achieving mother-child harmony lies in resolving internal conflicts within the mother herself.


Meet Shalini Josen, founder of Shifting with Shalini, a coaching practice merging western psychology with eastern mindfulness. Shalini’s focus is supporting parents towards fostering close, fulfilling relationships with their children by overcoming the hurdles of anxiety, conflict, and stress.


With a B.A. and M.B.A. in business, Shalini initially delved into her family business. However, the role of motherhood shifted her trajectory, prompting her to adopt conscious parenting. Today, she navigates parenthood with mindfulness as the proud mom of two teenage boys.


Shalini holds a Conscious Parenting Certification from Dr. Shefali, and in 2022, completed a short-study trauma-informed course by Dr. Gabor Mate. She also earned a Soul Care and Spiritual Psychology certification with Suzi Lula. 


As a compassionate guide, Shalini empowers her clients to undergo a transformative journey—shifting their relationship with both themselves and their children from disconnection to profound connection. She believes this shift requires a new perspective and way of engaging, a path of mindfulness, self awakening and consciousness.
