Mukta Namdeo Bhosale,
Director (Manamukta Foundation)
Native: Mumbai 20/02/1977
In a position of command Mukta has been defined a compassionate leader who does not only bring projects to a close on time but makes sure the people in her team are not put under stress by the work that they pursue. Mukta is a person with boundless motivation which has helped her conquer body and mind by becoming a charming personal counsellor and a marathon runner among other pursuits. Her work in personal counselling is covered in a scent of creativity and compassion. Taking a route different from the conversational norm between the patient and the counsellor, she has a tendency to encourage a form of communication which best suit the patient through the form of art and music to allow them to express themselves the best they can. Though these strengths show the versatility that she has, it is outshined by her fearless approach to take enormous tasks and follow them through with her wits as she has done in Man taluka Satara by setting up a water conservation system for the whole village and making sure that they have sustainable source of water for the years to come and making a difference with the people for the people.
The educational background that Mukta holds is rather versatile though holding a ground to do something for the people she began her education by pursuing a BA DCS degree and becoming a Computer Science teacher in Kukudwad. Later in life after she was married, she wanted to ensure that her kids are capable of having the same compassion and look at the world for the rose petals and not the thorns she retired to be a home maker. During this time, she continued feeding her passion by taking up an Entrepreneurship training at K education and followed it by taking an international teacher training course at Helen O’ Grady. After being confident in her kids being the people that she dreamt of them to be, she wanted to continue her pursue of giving to the people and continued her education by taking a Diploma in Personal Counselling at the age of 44 with the dream of bringing the education of mental health to rural areas and making a safe space for people in villages to express themselves.
Though an accomplished woman, in her work as well as her education, it is not enough to define who Mukta is a s a person. Who she truly is can be defined as person who strives to be just ever so slightly better every day as well as someone who cares for the people around her as they are her family and further, she is a dreamer who has the capability to make her dreams a reality.
