Hey, I'm TJ Walia

On the outside, I had it all—big title, big tech, big future. The kind of success people chase their whole lives.

When I started at Microsoft, I was determined to prove myself. I believed that if I just worked harder, put in more hours, and pushed through exhaustion, success would follow.

So I skipped breaks, took on every project, and worked late nights, telling myself, “This is what it takes.”

​And at first, it seemed to work. I got promotions, moved up the ranks, and kept chasing the next goal. But no matter how much I achieved, my to-do list never shrank, the pressure never eased, and I was constantly running on empty.

I was barely holding it together.

And like all pressure left unchecked, it didn’t ask for permission—it broke something.
Not a project. Not a deadline.

​Me.

And That's When It Hit Me...

​It was a sunny afternoon, just like any other. Tired, I reached for another coffee, hoping it would be enough to get me through the day. The restaurant was packed, conversations buzzing, another high-pressure meeting in full swing. But something felt off.


A wave of exhaustion hit me—not the usual tiredness, but something deeper. My body felt heavy. My mind foggy. I tried to push through, just like I always did. Keep going. Stay sharp. Get through the meeting.

But as I stood up from my chair… everything went black.

The relentless hours. The sleepless nights. The constant pressure to perform. It had finally caught up with me.

​​When I woke up, it wasn’t just about getting off the floor—it was about picking up the broken pieces of my confidence, my well-being, and the career I had sacrificed everything for.

​The panic set in—what had I done to myself? I thought I was invincible, that pushing harder was the key to success. I had sacrificed sleep, personal time, and even relationships, thinking that work would make it all worth it in the end.

But that day, lying there, I realized the truth: no career, no title, no amount of success would be worth losing myself in the process.

That moment became my wake-up call.​

In 2023, I walked away from it all—Microsoft, the title, the comfort, the predictability.

No plan. No backup job. Just one decision: I wasn’t going to lose myself for success anymore.

It was terrifying…

Since then, I’ve rebuilt everything—this time, on my terms.

Today, I coach high-performers, leaders, and business owners to do the same: to achieve more without burning out, compromising their values, or living on autopilot.

No fluff. Just proven frameworks born from experience—and designed for people who want to win without losing themselves.

Because real success shouldn't drain you.

It fuels you.
It aligns with who you are.
​It amplifies your potential—not erases it.
