As family responsibilities grew—including becoming a mum—her career in television became harder to sustain. A move from London to the countryside brought further change, ultimately leading to the breakdown of her relationship.

But from loss came transformation. Dipti discovered a new path as a psychotherapist, specializing in grief therapy.
