Hello. Alright, ma'am. So let's start with the interview. So, ma'am, my first question is related to your professional life. So balancing fulltime job and extensive research on graphology, both these things can be really challenging. So how do you manage your time effectively to pursue both?
Ah. Handwriting analysis is my passion, and it's only fair that I devote as much time as possible for my passion. Obviously, it was not always easy with a full time job to follow this passion, but with adequate self discipline and time management, I was able to push myself and motivate myself to delve deeper into this subject. It

Yes, absolutely, ma'am. And I also believe that when you have self discipline, you can achieve everything. I mean, yes, you can get disciplined by an external force, but when you are self motivated to do something, that is a different force, which is reflected upon your own behavior, which makes you more productive. So this is my mantra as well, to be as self disciplined as possible
So I jotted down a few traits which I thought could indicate a strong influence of a mother figure or a father figure. And then I analyzed celebrity handwritings and then read about their childhood stories. And that kind of gave me a boost. Yeah, this could be possible that these and these and these traits could be, for example, responsible for emotional inhibition or sexual inhibition in adulthood

Ma'am, these words from you sound so intricate, yet so interesting. And I'm pretty sure that I am going to dig deeper into how handwriting basically shapes our personality and how parental influence has an impact on it. So, ma'am, my next question for you would be. Exploring personality traits for relationship compatibility and workplace understanding is also very intriguing. So how did you approach the correlation between handwriting traits and these specific aspects of life?
Um, I believe that no matter where you are, Whether in a Social Situation, at Workplace, in your Relationship, you carry a lot of aspects of your personality. So I believe that an IndiVidual has various layers to his or her personality. It's like various parts of you interacting with each other. And these parts manifest themselves in whatever situation you are in. Now, in a WorkPlace scenario, you are more, let's say, held back, more reticent, more practical

Hello. That's amazing, ma'am. And ma'am, today I realized that how much your handwriting has an impact on you. I mean, I never knew that. You know, different handwritings have been resonated with different personalities. I always thought that handwriting is something which you can work upon. If you have a bad handwriting, just work upon it, and then you'll have a decent handwriting. And if you'll work more upon it, you'll have a good handwriting
So in that way, when you express yourself that way to a person, then they are more willing to hear you out and then ask a suggestion as to what improvements they can make. So these are particular do's and don'ts, which I always follow when I am analyzing the handwritings of my clients

Hello. All right, ma'am. So with this, I can conclude that whenever we are analyzing handwriting, we should basically keep in mind certain aspects about the person who is writing it, about the surrounding in which the person is, about the condition in which the person is. So beyond the strokes seems to offer a very comprehensive guide. So, ma'am, are there any myths or common misconceptions about handwriting analysis that you aim to dispel through your book?
Obviously, when you are facing more complicated issues or traumas or certain problems in your life, then just grapple. Therapy will not help a person. This has to be in combination with the treatments of a certified counselor or a psychiatrist. So a graphologist cannot be replaced, cannot be used as a replacement for psychology or a psychologist or a psychiatrist. These are the two myths that I would really like to dispel with the help of my book. Thank you
