“It has been priceless to just connect with someone in the same boat as me”
Bonanza Touch conversations help with 'emotional' brainstorming' and support.
“It has been priceless to just connect with someone in the same boat as me”
Talking to someone who has direct experience of something builds a relatability like no other. It also results in the most fruitful conversations!
I felt a ‘connect’ with the Peer and that was the best and unexpected part of the conversation. The Peer understood where I was lacking and suggested me ways to improve.
Amit
Dealt with self-image issues
It was nice talking to someone who was non judgemental and could immediately relate to my challenges.
Suhana
Discussed her trust issues
The call was way more satisfactory than I was hoping for. I saw the power of a good match for the first time (across any kind of help – including therapists ofc)!
Kirti
Talked about caregiving
I had my conversation with Shrinanda and she listened to me very patiently. The best part was that she didn’t make me feel that we were talking for the first time. It was a blissful conversation. Kudos to Shrinanda and team Bonanza Touch.
Harsh
Talked about heartbreak
I like the idea of Bonanza Touch, the idea of recognizing that people are in need of people to connect with each other to not feel lonely. I loved how I could feel a connection with a random stranger.
Aniket
Spoke about bipolar disorder
The Peer who was recommended to me was a soulful person. Much like the name Bonanza Touch. Thank you team.
Santosh
Spoke of depression
I could open my heart to her and felt relieved. She also made me feel understood by sharing her stories which were quite similar to mine. I got a new perspective and felt lighter after the call.
Madhu
Spoke about marital issues
Connecting with a random stranger who is all ears to you and has zero judgments felt like a blessing. She made me self-reflect and gave me courage to be strong.
Carol
Talked about mental abuse
It was really nice to speak to someone who is going through the same challenges. I’m not very talkative, and Anjali did most of the heavy lifting. I was glad. Thank you for all your amazing work.
Sarita
Talked about living with cancer
It gave me confidence about my thought process. I could relate to whatever was being spoken to me. She was very patient and gave me enough space to talk about the things that I wanted to talk about.
Amin Q
Spoke of a toxic relationship
Anuja was super smart and empathetic. She gave very very relevant examples that helped me with more perspectives. Really helped to be able to connect with someone like that.
Saurav
Discussed issues at work
I felt as if I was talking to my alter ego. She totally related to my experiences and gave me some helpful tips. I would like to talk to her again.
Pallavi
Talked about family dynamics
Best thing was connecting with a stranger – zero judgements and someone who is all ears to listen to you. This initiative can do wonders for a country like India where people don’t talk much about their issues. I loved the idea.
Sriram
Spoke about his anxiety
Very easy to use and approachable vibe. Conversation was very natural and honest. Felt lighter as if talked heart-to-heart with a friend, without any judgement.
Anirudh
Spoke about marital problems
Got a feeling that I’m not alone in my struggle. It was like connecting with my own tribe. It is amazing that you could talk to someone, gain from their experiences so that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
Shalini
Discussed a rare health condition
The whole process was professional. I got some tips to have a good conversation even before the call. I don’t know if the Peers go through training but what I got was exactly what I signed up for: no judgement, lot of empathy and good advice.
Irfan
Spoke about a tough life decision
The conversation gave me a new perspective altogether and honestly something that I never expected or never thought I would need (the most).
Valerie
Spoke about infideliy
Suraj is such a patient Peer and helped me vent. He was very non-judgemental and actually made me feel so much lighter towards the end of the call.
