I HELP CHANGEMAKERS UNLEASH THEIR SUPERPOWERS

by blending deep listening, strategic insight, and storytelling that sparks clarity and meaningful change.

It’s Time.

We all have magic to share — though uncovering it can be hard amid the noise, uncertainty, and grind of our times. Now more than ever, being clear, authentic and creative in our thinking, words and actions are essential.

I partner with heart-powered changemakers — people and organizations of all shapes and sizes — to unearth insight, design engagement, and shape stories and experiences that support meaningful impact.

I invite you to scroll on and learn more. If it resonates, I look forward to exploring what’s possible together.

Offerings/Services

Uncovering and activating superpowers looks different every time. I’ve worked on short to long term projects with changemakers and mission-driven organizations. Epic work together begins with understanding distinct needs and wishes.

The work (thus far) has come to life through these focus areas:

This work invites a return to inner wisdom — supporting individuals and small groups in reconnecting with their innate gifts through present moment tools and healing traditions that nurture clarity, healing, and wholeness.

Clarity & Wayfinding

It’s hard to solve what we don’t fully understand. I use human-centered design, and other research and problem-solving methods to gain a deep understanding for a topic/issue/challenge to design solutions that actually work. I also offer thoughtful strategic planning and advising support.

Discovery

Research + Strategy

Stories have the power to make meaning, build connection and ignite change. I help shape communications strategies, and craft authentic content that move ideas into action — supporting both the message and the systems that power it.

Transformative Storytelling

Uplifting Stories & Communications

When space is crafted with care and connection something powerful becomes possible. I design and facilitate engagements that bring people together in ways that are purposeful, impactful and human.

  • “Malini was able to immediately learn the lay of the land, build trust and rapport across our team, and create value for Ashoka. Her style is engaging, creative, and energizing. We quickly and completely trusted Malini to represent Ashoka, whether it was in engaging prospective partners one-on-one, popping up programming around the county, or recommending and leading internal improvements. Malini is the kind of person that people across the organization came to rely on, and her positive impact on Ashoka will continue to be felt for a very long time.”

    — Simon Stumpf, Senior Change Leader, US Venture/Fellowship and Next Now, Ashoka

  • “My work with Malini required deep awareness of the culture and context of an international nonprofit organization like Namati — and what stands out to me was her innate ability to ask the right questions and internalize her understanding in short order. She quickly grasped the heart of our organization and translated that understanding into meaningful recommendations, resources and products that our staff use and return to. From leading a discovery sprint on manager development and support to designing and co-facilitating a series of dynamic virtual trainings, her thoughtful questions, intentional design, and ability to distill insights into clear, actionable goals and next steps made her a valued partner whose work continues to shape how we support our managers.”

    — Jenna Hudson, Senior Manager | People, Namati

  • "Malini was an excellent facilitator for our team. Team off-sites can be logistically challenging with all the moving pieces, but Malini was so easy to work with and created the perfect introduction for us. She created a grounding, peaceful energy that immediately put everyone at ease, and in a receptive state for the week. She created the perfect prompts to help us get to know one another and ourselves better, and to articulate our goals and aspirations for the retreat. I can't imagine a better start to our team's offsite than the session she led!"

    — - Emily Wright-Moore, CXO | Principal of Design & Research, Bloom Works

  • “Malini was a key member of the innovation team when I served as the Chief Technology Officer at HHS. She took the lead launching the Invent Health initiative, researching and strategizing how to shine a spotlight on the hardware of health & human services. She pulled together scarce resources to create high-impact events, making a way out of no way. Malini is also a fabulous writing partner and I appreciated her quick, creative, accurate turn-around on every project we worked on together. And if you need to find a unique voice for your organization, Malini is a gifted translator. She listens, learns, and then interprets what you want to convey into language that people understand. Nobody writes like she can -- she draws people in with just a few words and made government work look cool.”

    — Susannah Fox, Internet Geologist, Former Chief Technology Officer, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)

  • “Malini is an incredibly insightful, passionate and creative communicator, who immediately jumped into our work to help us understand how we could better tell the story of both the work that we are accomplishing, but more importantly, the stories of the communities we serve. She listens, and is able to frame a vision based on her ability to understand an issue, problem or opportunity, in a way that is unique and elevates the organization she is working with. You can tell from the minute you meet her that she will have an impact on your work.”

    — Nathan Ohle, Former Chief Executive Officer, Rural Community Assistance Partnership (RCAP)

  • "The team enjoyed the activities during the workshop. Malini was an awesome facilitator and quickly connected with the entire team in different activities that demonstrated the dynamics of the group and their personalities. Me and my team are very pleased with Malini and with the outcome of the workshop, which was very useful in improving our day-to-day work."

    — Hernan Costa Castro, Chief, Information Systems and Digital Innovation, Inter-American Development Bank (IDB)

  • “Malini's warm, grounded presence and deep intuitive wisdom supported me to recognize, disentangle and release deep emotional bonds which were no longer serving me. With her skilled guidance, I was empowered to go deeper to transmute this stuck energy and become more aligned with my true nature. I feel deeply grateful for having an intuitive guide like Malini. I can't recommend her services enough.
