Hi, I’m Alaka Satapathy Rath—entrepreneur, strategist, and growth partner for people serious about building with intention. My journey didn’t begin in a boardroom. It began the day I left my role at IBM in India after less than a year of experience to move to Singapore. No job in hand. No contacts. Just a decision to follow my instinct and bet on my future. Singapore was tough. I had to rebuild everything my career, my confidence, my clarity. But I did. And I learned how to make things work from scratch.

A few years later, I moved again—this time to Sydney, with a newborn in my arms and a decision to pause my corporate path. That pause didn’t last long. Because something bigger was waiting to be built. With no network, no clients, and no platform—I launched my first business. I didn’t wait for the opportunity. I created one. And then, I created more.
