Through AstraThrive Consulting, we partner with governments, NGOs, and institutions to design evidence-based, gender responsive programs that strengthen maternal mental health, youth resilience, and caregiver wellbeing. Our technical services span program design and proposal development, capacity building and facilitator training, monitoring and evaluation frameworks, policy integration, and communication strategies.

We bring deep thematic expertise in emotional resilience across life stages, gender and SRHR integration, coaching-based community models, and behavioral science interventions-blending science, soul, and strategy to create culturally rooted solutions that build thriving communities

From childhood to motherhood, women are supported through every transition.
But when midlife arrives with its physical changes, emotional shifts, identity questions, and career crossroads, the support fades, and the silence grows.

No one tells her what to expect. No one shows her how to navigate it.
She’s left to figure it out alone.

AstraThrive was born to change that.

We are a space where midlife women are deeply seen, heard, and empowered.
We offer holistic, science-backed, soul-aligned programs that support every part of who she is, emotionally, physically, mentally, spiritually, and professionally.

This chapter is not about fading. It’s about rising.
We’re here to help her thrive.

Founder’s Letter

Dear Beautiful Soul,

If you are reading this, I want you to know something very important: You are not alone.

I created AstraThrive because I lived the silence. I experienced the sudden invisibility, the endless giving, the shifting identities, the loneliness that crept in uninvited. I realized that while the world prepared me for every stage of womanhood: childhood, adolescence, motherhood, but no one prepared me for midlife.

The emotional changes, the physical shifts, the deep inner questioning felt overwhelming. And yet, hidden inside them was a profound truth: Midlife isn’t a crisis. It’s an awakening.

At AstraThrive, we don't just help you "cope." We give you the tools to thrive emotionally, spiritually, professionally. We honor your silent battles. We celebrate your rising strength. We walk with you as you reclaim your life, your power, and your purpose.

You were never meant to fade away. You were always meant to rise.

This personal journey revealed a larger truth: these transitions need support at every level. That's why AstraThrive Consulting partners with governments, NGOs, and institutions to design programs that bring emotional resilience to mothers, youth, and caregivers—transforming not just individuals, but entire communities

With love and belief in your light,
Dr. Renu Golwalkar

Testimonials

Here’s what client are saying after working with Dr. Renu Golwalkar in both individual and group coaching formats

I had done well in my role for years, but I hit a point where I felt disconnected from what I was doing. In my coaching sessions with Renu, we worked through clear goals and tracked them over time using practical frameworks. She helped me identify patterns that were slowing me down, and the tools she shared helped me shift gears, both personally and professionally. I didn’t walk away with inspiration alone, but with real progress I could measure.

I joined Dr Renu’s group coaching programs when I was juggling midlife shifts, aging parents, and a career that felt like it was running me. The space she created was structured but supportive, we had goal-setting exercises, reflection tools, and she helped each of us get clear on what we were holding onto and what we needed to change. It felt empowering to do this with other women who were on similar paths. I came out with better focus and confidence to reset things at work and at home.

When I started working with Renu, I was overwhelmed, both from work and personal transitions. She didn’t just listen. Instead, we worked with frameworks that helped me clarify my priorities, create boundaries, and take action. What I appreciated most is that she pushed me just enough, but always trusted me to take ownership and face challenges with a different mindset.

I joined Renu’s group coaching series on midlife and empty nest, and honestly, it came at the right time. Her sessions were not therapy, they were coaching in the true sense: structured, action-oriented, and incredibly empowering. We set personal goals, tracked shifts in energy and mindset, and had conversations that made me think differently. The group energy was amazing, and I still use some of the tools from that program in my daily routine.

The Mirror Moment course has helped me to look at different aspects of life with positivity and aided in balancing my emotions. It has made me realize my needs, desires and strengthened my relationship with my husband and children. It has assisted me with greater ability to manage stress and control my life better with grace.

Men Who Hold Space Course was good, very informative and an eye-opener. One gets a lot of insights into what goes around in a woman's life at this stage....probably things which men already know at the back of their minds but have never given it the importance it deserves. Most men lack the understanding to comprehend the midlife crisis of their partner because of other pressures in their lives...this tends to take a back seat. The course helps bring this crisis to the forefront and highlights that due importance needs to be given to manage this  so as to ensure a smooth relationship in future.
