🚘 From Company Secretary to Confident Solo Driver
CS Swati Joshi’s Real-Life Transformation From Udhna, Surat
How She Overcame Fear and Took the Wheel of Her Life
By Drive With Confidence – www.drivewithconfidence.com
Not all victories are celebrated with applause.
Some are felt in the quiet hum of an engine, the soft turn of a steering wheel, and the deep breath before a solo drive.
This is the true and empowering story of CS Swati Joshi, a dedicated Company Secretary from Udhna, Surat, who, despite her impressive professional career, battled silently with an invisible challenge — the fear of driving.
Today, Swati proudly drives her own car independently anywhere in the city.
But just a few months ago, even sitting behind the wheel made her anxious.
Let’s take you through her remarkable journey — from zero experience, failed training, and deep hesitation, to freedom, confidence, and pride.
❌ No Scooty. No Car. No Past Driving Experience.
Unlike many learners, Swati had never even touched a two-wheeler.
No scooty. No moped. Not even a cycle in traffic.
For years, she stayed away from the road. Whether it was the sound of honking, the uncertainty of traffic movement, or the fear of “what if I lose control” — the road simply didn’t feel safe to her.
Even after buying a car, she could never drive alone.
“I’m excellent with compliance reports, financial statements, and legal provisions… but when it came to the steering wheel, I used to freeze.”
She tried enrolling in a local driving school. Then again, with a personal driver for private lessons.
But the result was the same — incomplete training, anxiety, and no confidence.
💼 Busy Life. No Time to Try Again.
Being a Company Secretary in a corporate firm meant Swati was always racing against deadlines.
From board meetings to AGMs, her calendar was packed with legal notices, ROC filings, investor audits, and review calls.
She would carry company matters with ease — yet was forced to depend on drivers, rickshaws, or cabs to get to even nearby places.
And every time she held the car keys, she heard the voice in her head say:
“What if I mess up again?”
That’s when she came across a name on Google that seemed… different.
📞 One Call That Changed Her Road Ahead
She found Drive With Confidence – Surat.
She clicked the link and found stories of real people like her — people who had fear, vision freeze, zero vehicle experience, and failed with other schools… but finally succeeded.
Their line hit her:
“We don’t just teach. We transform.”
She made the call.
And within five minutes, she felt understood. Not judged.
For the first time, someone was listening — not just to her driving problem, but to her emotional fear too.
She booked a demo session without hesitation.
🚦The Demo Session That Mapped Her Confidence
At Drive With Confidence, the demo isn’t about just driving in circles.
It’s a carefully designed assessment to understand the learner’s:
- Mindset
- Body coordination
- Reaction time
- Psychological fear triggers
- Technical gaps
Swati’s assessment revealed:
- No footwork coordination between clutch, brake, and accelerator
- Tight grip on the steering — a sign of panic
- Delay in shifting gears during active movement
- Vision freeze at intersections and crowded lanes
And the root cause?
👉 She had never driven anything before. Not even a bicycle in traffic.
But the trainer saw potential — and calmness behind the fear.
She was offered the Guarantee-Based 33-Day Driving Confidence Program — Surat’s most comprehensive, emotionally intelligent, and result-assured system for learners of all levels.
“I didn’t want another trial. I wanted a real breakthrough,” she shared.
✅ Her Real Training Journey Begins
What made her training unique was how it was built around her pace, her psychology, and her daily lifestyle.
Her sessions included:
🧠 Fear-to-Focus exercises
– Where she learned to slow her thoughts before a drive, using breathing techniques and mental anchoring.
🚘 ABC Mastery
– Accelerator-Brake-Clutch coordination through progressive drills in real environments.
👀 Vision Control Training
– To overcome freeze reactions, using mirror mapping and center vision practices.
🅿️ Reverse & Parking Sessions
– Done with repetition until confidence replaced confusion.
🛣️ City Route Coaching
– From Udhna to Vesu, from VIP Road to Pal — she practiced the roads she once feared.
Swati trained in silence, focused, committed — one session at a time.
🌈 The Breakthrough: Her First Solo Drive
Then came the 24th day of training.
Her trainer greeted her like usual but said something different that day:
“Swati, today I want you to drive from Shyam Mandir on VIP Road… all by yourself. I’ll wait for you at the end point.”
Swati felt nervous — but also ready.
She got into her car. No one sat beside her. She adjusted her seat, set the mirrors, checked her gear… and started.
With calm breath and focused eyes, she drove confidently.
From Shyam Mandir to the pickup point — completely alone.
That short stretch became her longest leap of faith.
“When I parked and looked at myself in the mirror, I didn’t see a learner.
I saw a driver. I saw me.”
🚗 Her Life Today: A New Version of Herself
Today, Swati drives wherever she wants.
Whether it’s a quick stop at the bank, a visit to the registrar’s office, or a late evening corporate dinner — she no longer checks for drivers or Ola apps.
She now handles her life with four wheels and full control.
She’s planning to drive to Saputara with her family soon — something she once thought was impossible.
“The biggest meeting I ever attended wasn’t in a boardroom. It was the meeting I had with my fear. And I won.”

💬 Swati’s Message to All Learners:
