7sHR webinar

Hi everyone, and welcome!

I’m so glad you’re here today. I’m Hetika, and along with Nishi, we’ll be facilitating this
session for you.

"If you had to describe how you're feeling today — or what you're hoping to take away
from this session — in just one word, what would it be?"

If your week so far had a title — like a book or movie — what would it be?"

🎬
You can give a few playful examples like:​

📖
Mission: Inbox Impossible​

🎥
Calm Before the Deadline​
Eat. Zoom. Repeat.

Is there a stark difference? Or are you closer to these characters in your real life as
well? Chances are most of us don't live the life we thought we would, and with everyday
work, tasks, to-do lists we tend to forget how we wanted to live.

​
Our workshop today is called “Reclaiming Your Life” — and that’s not just a motivational
phrase. It’s a quiet invitation to pause and ask yourself:

Am I living in alignment with what truly matters to me — or am I just managing to

keep up?

In a fast-paced, goal-driven work culture — especially when working remotely as many

of you do — it’s easy to shift into autopilot. We move from task to task, giving our best to
support others… and somewhere along the way, our own voice, our own needs, can get
a little quieter.

This space is a chance to slow down, reflect, and maybe reconnect with the parts of
yourself that haven’t had much room lately.

As HRs you’re often the ones helping others find clarity, confidence, and structure in
their roles. But when was the last time someone helped you do the same?

This session is about turning that support inward — toward yourself.

Introduce the objectives

Growth mindset - will cover explain how our internal narratives have the power to uplift
your abilities

Reconnecting with intrinsic motivation - to understand what truly matters to us and how
when we align with it,so every impossible becomes possible

Navigating imposter syndrome - will explain us how its us who limit us from being our
best version

Managing uncertainty without overwhelm - because we all face uncertain situations, and
learning how to face them wit

Having a growth mindset means believing that a person’s abilities aren’t innate but can
be improved through effort, learning, and persistence. A growth mindset is all about the
attitude with which a person faces challenges, how they process failures, and how they
adapt and evolve as a result.

But how can you tell if you have a growth mindset? You can’t, the reason being, most of
us adopt different mindsets depending on the situation we encounter.

Do the exercise

"I’m still learning how to work better in groups — I can improve with practice and
feedback.

This is challenging, however I can get better at it step by step."

Creativity is a skill I can develop — I just need to explore it more and give myself the
chance

The way we talk to ourselves—our internal narratives—shapes how we see our

potential. By shifting these stories from limitation to learning and growth, we move from
a fixed mindset to a growth mindset. Reclaiming your role in life begins with reclaiming
the belief that you can grow, adapt, and evolve.​
Our internal dialogue becomes our reality. When we change the narrative from limitation
to possibility, we unlock new ways of thinking, growing, and showing up.

Define and write down your goals - SMART - both long and short term - it's easy to get
lost in deciding which and how many goals to work on, however shifting focus on few
tangible goals will help one align priorities accordingly.

Take small steps each day towards your goals - change does not happen overnight,
however, if you can build small, positive actions into your daily routine – such as going
for a 20 minute walk post work, or meditating in the morning for 5 - 10 minutes, or
journaling every night before sleeping – you can turn them into habits.

Try things out of your comfort zone - try to challenge yourself and do something you hae
no experience with, try a new hobby, play a new sport, or challenge yourself to do
something you've never done before, just to start getting used to the discomfort and
slowly working towards it.

Staying consistent despite initial setbacks - it takes time to develop a growth mindset,
so don't be dismayed if you don’t see results. Instead focus on consistency. Ake positive
steps each day and trust that the results will come in time.

Seeking and exploring new perspectives - Exploring new subject matter with an open
mind can also help you view existing challenges in a new light, making it easier to spot
solutions you might otherwise have missed.

Intrinsic motivation

Intrinsic motivation is the internal spark—the drive to do something because it matters

to you, not because you’re being told to or rewarded for it. It’s fueled by curiosity,
passion, purpose, and alignment with your core values. Reclaiming your role in life
begins with reconnecting to what intrinsically drives you. This means turning inward and
asking:

●​ What makes me show up to work everyday?

●​ If no one was watching what would I still be doing?
●​ When was the last time I felt truly energized—and what was I doing?

Sometimes we don’t even realize we’re operating on autopilot until we pause and
reflect. Here are a few signs:

●​ You feel productive but empty: You’re ticking all the boxes, but there’s no real
sense of satisfaction.​

●​ Work feels robotic or disconnected from purpose: You're getting things done,
but the “why” behind your efforts feels fuzzy.​

●​ You don’t remember what lights you up anymore: The things that once
brought joy or excitement feel distant or irrelevant.​

●​ You’re succeeding but not fulfilled: Even external achievements don’t feel
rewarding
Think about the values you think reflect you the best.

Activity

We often think finding purpose requires a big life change, but more often, it starts with
small, intentional shifts—micro-shifts—in how we engage with our day. These shifts help
us realign with what matters and create space for intrinsic motivation to grow.

Before diving into tasks, take a moment to ask:

“What’s the bigger purpose behind what we’re doing today?”

This small pause invites clarity, connection, and alignment. It reminds everyone why
their contributions matter—and brings meaning back into routine work.

Not every task deserves a yes. When we constantly say yes to everything, we dilute our
energy and move further away from what drives us. Learning to say a thoughtful no to
tasks, meetings, or requests that don’t align with your role, values, or energy can be a
powerful way to reclaim autonomy and purpose.

At the end of each week, pause and ask yourself: “What was one meaningful moment
this week—big or small?” It could be helping a colleague, solving a challenge, or
receiving a thank you. This reflection reinforces your sense of impact and fulfillment,
even in busy weeks.

These micro-shifts are simple to apply, but they slowly rewire how we approach
work—moving us from reacting to reconnecting, from autopilot to alignment.
