I help people find their purpose and support them on their journey of self discovery. I am a London based professional coach, PCC accredited with the International Coaching Federation. I am an engineer by qualification and a coach by passion. Over the years, I have worked in technology and innovation while also exploring deeper questions about meaning, growth and contribution. I see myself as a Bystander. Someone who observes carefully, reflects deeply and asks better questions. I am also passionate about photography and the art of seeing. My work on Unsplash has received over two million views. I am the author of WHAT NEXT: Living with Clarity and Purpose, a book born from my own journey of reflection and transformation. This podcast is an informal and reflective space. Through honest conversations, we explore personal journeys, lessons learned, future plans, philosophy of life, and the books, people and films that have shaped us. My intention is simple. To share real, human stories that inspire others to think deeply, act courageously and design a life with clarity and purpose. If this resonates with you, please subscribe and support this journey.

    Episode 1: Living — The Truth of Now

    Episode 1: Living — The Truth of Now In this opening episode, we explore a simple but powerful idea: living happens only now. Not in your past, not in your plans, and not in the stories you tell about yourself. This episode is an invitation to move beyond thinking and step into direct experience, where clarity, freedom, and presence become available again.

    UK Job Market for Agile Roles and writing a good CV

    With the new majority government in the UK, there is a sense of stability. While there will be few policy changes, businesses can now plan their investments with greater certainty. The current job market, while challenging, is also showing signs of recovery. To explore this further and help the community, I spoke with Sanches Clarke from La Fosse to gain insights from the hiring space, especially in the Agile space. We also covered some basics that will help candidates prepare their CVs. I found this conversation very useful. Sharing this recording was beyond my comfort zone, but I'm figuring out ways to contribute and support others in doing the same. I don’t believe in debating the "value of agile ways of working," but I do believe in generating value by doing it and helping others do it (from the manifesto :-) ). If you have any ideas or feedback for improvement, please share them with me. If you like this podcast and find it helpful, please share it with others! Have a great weekend!

    Welcome to the Bystander

    The name Bystander was inspired by the title of Peter Druckers autobiographical collection of stories and vignettes  “The Adventures of a Bystander”. Peter Drucker’s books and teaching have made a significant contribution to my own thinking and beliefs during my early days of professional life. Especially those around managing knowledge workers and managing oneself. One of his quotes “The best way to predict future is to create it” became my favourite.  You can reach me at (Raghav) at: rmithare@processwhirl.com
