Tanvi Lad’s journey began on the courts, competing at the national level of badminton in India. But dreams evolve, and for Tanvi, life took an unexpected yet fulfilling turn. Though she didn’t achieve her original goal of an Olympic medal, she embraced the lessons of resilience and focus that her sporting career had taught her.
“Your dreams matter,” Tanvi shares. “They shape who you are, even if the path changes.” This spirit of embracing new directions is at the heart of Kashesh Global’s Celebrate You & Your Dreams in Dubai series.

Embracing Opportunity in a City of Dreamers
Dubai, a city known for ambition and innovation, was the perfect place for Tanvi to start fresh. With its openness to new ideas and emphasis on community, Dubai offered her both a home and a fresh purpose.
“Dubai is a city of dreamers,” Tanvi says. “There’s a sense of inclusivity here that makes you feel at home. If you work hard, you find the support and the community to help you grow.”
Tanvi discovered a welcoming health and fitness community in Dubai, where she could apply her passion for wellness and continue to inspire others.
The Beginner’s Mindset
Switching careers can be challenging, but Tanvi has embraced each step with a beginner’s mindset. “Leaving a 15-year career in sports and starting over was tough,” she reflects, “but each day I strive to give my best and grow.”
Tanvi’s journey highlights the power of resilience and the willingness to embrace change—qualities that anyone can admire and adopt.

Redefining Success and Happiness
Tanvi’s approach to success is refreshing. For her, it’s not about titles or financial gain but about feeling fulfilled. “Success is waking up happy and excited about what you’re doing,” she explains. This focus on inner happiness rather than external rewards is an inspiring reminder to find joy in the journey itself.
Finding Strength in Community
Dubai has given Tanvi a sense of community and belonging that has been essential to her new journey. “I’ve found an incredible network of women who support each other,” she says. “When women work together, we amplify each other’s dreams.”
At Kashesh Global, we believe in the strength of community, and Tanvi’s story is a beautiful example of how the right network can empower us all to reach new heights.
