It was a very satisfying experience, the purpose of doing this exercise after being a professional for 14 years in armed forces was knowing my ikigai. Sir took me through sessions making me aware of what needs to know and done. This entire exercise made me realise that our priorities do change with time and so our thought process. It's important to know our passion and what gives us mental satisfaction as far our professional life is concerned. Thank you sir for guiding me in this phase of my life. I would recommend students and anyone in life who wants to discover or rediscover their ikigai to go through this process with Sir. Regards. Wing Commander Jyoti Agarwal (Retd)

I had the pleasure of working with Col Rajashekar (S Rajasekhar), veteran and esteemed founder of Career and Education Pathways, and I can confidently say their approach to career counselling is distinctive and deeply impactful. From our very first session, it was clear they don’t rely on a generic, one-size-fits-all method. Col Rajashekar took the time to uncover my daughter’s unique strengths, interests, and aspirations—and that level of personal insight went far beyond what I expected. What truly impressed me was how seamlessly practical career advice was woven with personal discovery. Instead of merely listing job options, they helped us connect her passions with real-world opportunities she’d never considered. Each session with him was eye-opening, reassuring, and infused with warmth, patience, and genuine interest. We always walked away feeling more confident and clear-headed about the next steps. I highly recommend Career and Education Pathways—to anyone seeking more than surfac

The guidance provided by Col Shekhar is excellent and is based on real time experiences. It was apt to the present education scenario, both in India and abroad. Counselling to parents is excellent as we in India have very narrow perception on our children’s education.
