About This coach

Dr. Priyanka Venkataraman is a mother, parent and life coach, and board-certified OBGYN physician. With 12 years of experience in traditional OBGYN practice, she has delivered thousands of babies and helped women navigate a wide range of health challenges. Now, as a parent and life coach, Dr. Venkataraman is dedicated to helping women live their best lives by guiding them through life transitions with greater clarity and balance.

Despite her extensive medical training and professional achievements, navigating her own transition into motherhood was one of her greatest challenges. After receiving parent coaching, she witnessed firsthand the positive impact on her relationship with her family and recognized the need for more support for professional women, especially in motherhood and parenting.

Dr. Venkataraman is a certified Wayfinder Life Coach and certified parent coach through the Jai Institute for Parenting. As the Founder and CEO of Wayfinding Moms, she has created a community where professional women are supported through major life transitions, including career changes, motherhood, and parenting. She is passionate about helping women discover their true path to a fulfilling and joyful balance between work and family life. Dr. Venkataraman finds her greatest fulfillment in spending time with her family and guiding others through their own transitions, empowering them to create a better future for themselves and their families.

What Makes THEM Special?

As both a mother and a certified Wayfinder Life Coach, Priyanka Venkataraman brings not only her professional training but also the personal experience of having walked this path herself. Her journey through motherhood was a profound transition—one that deeply challenged her sense of self and balance. Priyanka has experienced firsthand the overwhelm, emotional rollercoaster, and struggle to juggle career and family without losing sight of who she is. This personal journey has given her a deep understanding and empathy for the women she works with, fueling her passion for helping others find their way.

Her experience in women’s health has given Priyanka deep insight into the emotional, physical, and mental challenges women face, particularly during major life transitions like motherhood. She has seen how these challenges affect not only physical well-being but also relationships, career fulfillment, and personal identity.

Priyanka specializes in working with professional women, especially mothers, navigating the demands of both career and family. Having been through this journey herself, she understands how overwhelming it can be to balance both without losing oneself in the process. She loves to help women find their way back to themselves—building more calm, confidence, and connection with their families while thriving in their careers.



Wayfinder Life Coach Certification has provided Priyanka with additional tools to help women dive deep into their inner lives, uncover what truly matters, and guide them through daunting transitions. Through this work, she helps clients reconnect with their purpose and joy, empowering them to lead authentic, fulfilling lives. Her goal is to support women looking to find their way from functioning and surviving to thriving in the lives they choose.
