    Choices

    MyStories Session
    MyndStories
    Wellness and Health | Meetup

    Choices come with consequences. Someone told Smitha this very early in life, and it left her with a looming sense of doom. But choices, she discovered, are ways in which life expresses itself. Who are we without the choices that led us to this moment? In this special MyStories event, let’s come together to celebrate those choices. Let’s talk about the choices that we made, the choices we regret, and the choices that shaped us.

    What is MyStories?

    MyStories are community gatherings where we sit down and gently talk about life. These are informal gatherings. Some will be facilitated by a mental health professional. Some not. But the objective is one: Can we speak? Can we have a conversation with each other? Can strangers meet and part as friends?

    Meet the hosts

    This session is hosted by our co-founder and writer, Smitha Murthy and Sonali Dutta.

    Smitha is the author of Worlds Apart, a memoir, and runs MyndStories with her old friend and foe, Swati Nair. One day, she dreams of a world where we build bridges through kindness and where mental health has no stigma.

    Sonali Dutta is a Consultant, Speaker, and Trainer. Her first startup was a cool thing called ‘Emotional Gym for Teenagers.’ She had to walk away from that after going through a messy breakup at that time, and a few panic attacks. But that experience changed how she viewed mental health. She highly recommends therapy and would love to share her story on the choices that shape our lives.

    What should you bring?

    Your most authentic self. The one who wants to share. The one who wants their voice to be heard.

    What to expect from this session

    A typical MyStories event has a theme around which we open up and share our stories. For this event, ‘Choices’ is our theme. 

    This is a chance to share something meaningful, sit in a supportive space, and share a story that matters to you. At MyndStories, we believe in the power of sharing.

    So, grab your special item and join us for an evening of connection and storytelling. Let’s make this a night of shared experiences and heartfelt conversations.
