Rashmi Airan is a transformation expert, keynote speaker, and unapologetic truth-teller who helps leaders confront the invisible prisons that keep them stuck. She shows how orthodoxies, unwritten ground rules, cultural norms, and limiting beliefs quietly trap people in cycles of fear and uncertainty. Through her "Rise Through It” framework, Rashmi equips individuals and organizations to turn struggle into growth, clarity, and freedom.

Her own journey from IvyLeague lawyer and Wall Street deal maker to serving time in federal prison revealed the cost of ignoring blind spots and following unexamined rules. That experience became the blueprint for
her work today. Rashmi has spoken to leaders at Coca-Cola, Comcast, Merck, Cardinal Health, Sotheby's, and Hershey's, and her story has been featured by ABC, PBS, The Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal.

Beyond the stage, she is a proud mother of two college students, a community leader, and an adventurer who believes that breaking free from both external and internal prisons opens the door to possibility.
