“Priya, Early-Stage Founder — Vajrapāṇi Leadership Necklace”
Why she chose it: Priya launched a startup and wanted both a symbolic “power piece” for investor meetings and a tactile cue to use when stress spikes. The Vajrapāṇi pendant matched that brief: assertive yet wearable.

What changed: Priya says her pitches are crisper and she’s better at steering Q&A—two small changes that helped her close a pilot with a partner.
“I feel like the ritual tightens my pitch.” — Priya
