Questions Women Ask Before They Say Yes.

Rest Into Rise™ is my signature coaching program for professional women, executive working moms and mothers who seem to manage everything on the outside while quietly running on empty inside. It helps you recharge, refocus on what matters most to you, and keep feeling good in your life.
My work begins with a simple premise: rest is where restoration begins. Instead of asking you to work harder at becoming well, we start by letting your nervous system settle. As the constant internal noise softens, you can hear yourself again.
From there, I combine evidence-informed, positive psychology-based coaching with Yoga Nidra. You build calm, clarity and the emotional capacity to show up differently in your relationships, your parenting and your work.

Coaching with me is a good fit if:
You lead at work and at home, everyone relies on you, and your mind is on the next list before the day even begins.
You're running on fumes and want help building real rest into your life, the kind that restores you instead of leaving you numb on the couch.
You're at a crossroads: a new baby, a new role, a career decision, or kids who are older or have left home and a search for your next passion project.
You want clarity on your values and what comes next, plus the confidence and boundaries to act on it.
You've tried meditation and mindfulness, and you want support turning them into a consistent practice.
You thrive with an accountability partner in your corner.
You're ready to invest in yourself the way you invest in everyone else.
If you’re in crisis right now, please reach out for immediate support. You’ll find crisis hotlines in the “In Crisis” section of my OC Local Resources page. In an emergency, call 911, or call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

A 1:1 coaching session is a private conversation between you and me. You bring what feels heavy or what you want to change. I ask questions that help you get clear on what matters to you, and together we choose one small next step. If you'd like, we close with a short guided rest or Yoga Nidra practice, so you walk out lighter than you came in.
Between sessions, you try that step in your real life, and we build on what you learned the next time we meet.
Here's what clients have worked on with me:
Building a meditation practice into a busy schedule
Feeling less anxious and handling the stress of work and family
Adapting to new places and routines as a military wife
Going back to work after a baby
Figuring out what's next at work or in life, and deciding with confidence
Setting boundaries that hold
Sessions are 60 minutes, ideally weekly, on Zoom.

Me, Irina Shetty. I'm a certified, positive psychology-based Health and Well-Being Coach and Yoga Nidra teacher in Orange County, California, with more than 20 years of personal yoga practice.
Before this, I spent 20 years in corporate marketing and customer experience. I know the pace of being always on: back-to-back meetings, a team counting on you, an inbox that never empties. Then you walk through the door at home and the second shift starts. Play, homework, dinner, bedtime routines, and tomorrow's list already running in your head.
I've lived that as a working professional, a mother and the person my family relies on. I know how easy it is to keep functioning under pressure, and how hard it is to come out of it. That's the woman I work with, because I was her. So I won't ask you to try harder. We start with rest and build from there.

Yoga Nidra is a deep-rest practice in which you lie down, pull a blanket over you, and let my voice guide you into the state between waking and sleep. Your body softens. Your thoughts slow down. Many women tell me they come back feeling like they slept for hours.
-
Both. Your Time meets in person in Orange County, CA, and live on Zoom. 1:1 coaching happens on Zoom, so you can join from anywhere. I also host in-person events locally in Orange County.
-
Choose Your Time™ group coaching if you want to do this alongside other women. It’s a 6-week program for up to 10 women, meeting in person in Orange County, CA, or live on Zoom. Each session opens with a ritual. Then I coach the group, and every woman gets space to share what’s coming up for her, get coached on it, and learn from the others. We close with guided Yoga Nidra.
You also get six Yoga Nidra recordings to keep, journaling prompts, an optional private WhatsApp group between sessions, and a guest embodiment session with coach Jessica Brunner.
Choose Rest Into Rise™ private coaching if you want my full attention on the one thing that matters most right now, like returning to work, setting boundaries or getting your energy back. It runs 12 weeks, with 60-minute sessions on Zoom.

Small on purpose. Each Your Time™ circle has 10 women, so everyone gets heard. We open and close every session with a ritual, talk about what's on our minds, and rest together. Between sessions, the conversation continues in a private WhatsApp group.
Women arrive as strangers and leave with friends who know the real story. The connection continues after the program through online groups, local events in Orange County and retreats.

Through coaching, the changes build week by week:
You get clear on what matters most to you, and your days start to reflect it.
You make decisions at work and at home with more confidence.
You set boundaries and say no without the guilt spiral.
You catch yourself before you snap.
You take an evening for yourself and enjoy it.
Then friends start asking what's different about you.
If you choose to practice Yoga Nidra together, you'll feel a difference even sooner. Starting in session one, your body relaxes, your racing thoughts quiet down, and you finally exhale. Over the following weeks, many women notice deeper sleep and a calmer body.
You set your own goals at the start, and we track them together, so you can see your progress as it happens.
Don't know where to start?
Start small. Pick one free practice and feel the difference this week.
