Work with WEV

Deepa Pulipati first heard about WEV from a former board member. She was invited to a WEV fundraising event and wanted to become more involved  after the pandemic. She said “The general energy of wanting to build people up and getting excited about other people’s success speaks to an abundance mindset and the intention it took to build this organization. I love hearing people’s stories and I think supporting women in this way is a really good cycle to contribute to!” 

 

It was this energy that inspired her to become part of WEV’s League of Extraordinary Women: “The mission of WEV is very aligned with how I engage with my community, and it brings so much to the people who need this support. It resonates with my values and how I started in this country. I joined the League because I wanted to connect with  the broader community…and it sounded fun!” 

 

What’s Next

She started her own business, TULA Coaching (Tula means balance in Sanskrit) in 2018 out of a desire to continue the work she loves.  She said, “I happened upon entrepreneurship! You have to be consistent and stick with it, it takes time! I enjoy what I’m doing, so I’m going to stick with it. Stick with the entrepreneurial process.” 

 

She encourages other entrepreneurs to do the same: “Don’t give up! Give yourself permission to give your best for a year or two and jump in, all in. It might be scary, but it’s scarier to give up. When there’s perfectionism, there’s no creativity. Don’t listen to what the world says, do what feels good!” 

“The mission of WEV is very aligned with how I engage with my community, and it brings so much to the people who need this support.”
