If you remove all the titles you’ve ever held, who are you at your core?
That is your authentic self.
At Tatava Studio, psychologist Aarti Ahuja guides clients through this profound question— not as a philosophical exercise, but as a practical pathway to transformation that changes how you show up in daily life.
Mother. Father. Wife. Husband. Friend. Teacher. Caretaker. Coworker. Leader. Boss.
These roles are essential, but they are not you. They are experiences you move through. And yet, most of us spend years trapped in them, mistaking them for identity.
That’s why so many people lie awake at night quietly wondering: “Why do I feel so unseen? Why, even when I’m loved, do I still feel empty?”
From Theory to Daily Practice
“For years, I worked with clients who confused their roles with who they really were,” shares Aarti. “They poured themselves into being the perfect mother, the dedicated professional, the supportive partner— thinking excellence would finally make them feel whole.”
“Because you can’t be fully loved if no one, including you, has met your authentic self.”
This Work Changes How You:
Make decisions without second-guessing yourself
Set boundaries that feel natural, not forced
Choose relationships that energise rather than drain you
Navigate conflict without losing yourself
Parent, partner, and lead from wholeness—not depletion
The Shift That Changes Everything
“Roles filter love through conditions,” Aarti explains. “Your authentic self allows love to flow pure, unblocked, and real.”
When you identify the qualities beneath your roles—nurturing, resilient, intuitive, truth-telling, fiercely loving— you finally meet the person underneath it all.
What Clients Experience
“I stopped overexplaining my boundaries. Now I simply state them—and they hold.”
“I used to scan every room for approval. Now I walk in knowing who I am.”
“Some relationships didn’t survive this work. The ones that did became real.”
“I parent from patience now, not performance.”
Your Authentic Self as a Daily Compass
Decision-making rooted in truth, not people-pleasing.
Relationships aligned with your real needs.
Stability when roles shift.
Conflict handled from wholeness, not wounds.
Energy spent on what nourishes you.
