If you’re looking to write on LinkedIn and need someone who can guide you every step of the way, Niharikaa is the mentor you should turn to.
She’s been writing long-form content for quite some time now, and what stands out about her is not just her writing talent, but her incredible work ethic and consistent practices. These qualities have allowed her to gain massive traction across multiple platforms, whether it’s Medium, LinkedIn, or even Instagram (which she’s since deleted - that’s a whole other story you should ask her about :)
Of the many mentors I have now (whom I read & learn from), Niharikaa was my very first in the writing space, and I’ll forever be grateful that it was she who took me under her wing through our weekly calls. Her insights, guidance, and approach to content creation have shaped my journey in ways I never expected.
If you want to grow influence online, trust me, she’s the (authentic) one whom you would want by your side.

When I signed up for Authentic Influence, I didn’t know what to expect.
With her pragmatic approach, Niharika provided excellent guidance on the art of writing on LinkedIn. Her deep understanding of the LinkedIn algorithm helped me adapt my communication style to increase user engagement significantly. Further, the smaller group size allowed deeper engagement with Niharika and others in the group.
All in all, the course helped enhance my personal brand and position me as a thought leader.

This is more of a Thank you than a testimonial.
When I enrolled for the course, I was very apprehensive about how things will change for me. As you came to know during the course, writing used to be a hobby for me during my school time but i very conveniently put it on the back seat and forgot about it as life got in the way.
Through your course I was able to learn about the importance of processes and a well defined system, which made it so easy for me to restart writing.
I’m now in a place where I’m thoroughly enjoying my writing process, starting from 1 article on a week to now 3-4 articles + multiple short form post across platforms :)
I have seen a steady rise in the engagement numbers too (although I’m not one to be really influenced by numbers). But still, they don’t really lie, and consistency has helped me build a steady growth pattern and audience- specially across LinkedIn and Substack. Like I can’t believe I have 20 folks willingly subscribing to read my content on Substack!!
Once again, thank you for enabling us to enter the creator community. Have learnt a lot from you and will continue to do so.
Looking forward to keep engaging, connecting and growing as a Writer. Who knows someday I’ll be able to host my own cohort of writing course!

I had the privilege of participating in Niharikaa’s 12-week Authentic Influence cohort, and it was nothing short of transformational.
Here’s why:
✅ Elite-level mentorship
Niharikaa is an exceptional teacher and one of the most world-class writers in today’s creator economy. Her name stands tall alongside the most recognised voices in the space. Her peers, many of whom are established creators themselves, deeply respect her.
✅ Practical, high-impact learning
The program delivered real value every week through live video calls, actionable lessons on:
Crafting powerful hooks
Structuring your writing
Newsletter writing
Ideation and storytelling
✅ Visionary guidance
Niharikaa is also ahead of the curve and encouraged us to explore writing on Substack, both posts and notes. Fast-forward to May 2025, and two of the biggest names in the industry have just started using the platform regularly. She saw it coming.
✅ For serious creators
This is it if you want to enter the creator economy through writing.
Learning from Niharikaa is like being coached by LeBron James in basketball — high standards, world-class guidance, and real growth.
You won’t regret it.

I had never written on LinkedIn before. Then, Niharikaa coached me and showed me a simple writing tool. I published my first post and began to show up regularly. Within six weeks, one of my posts on immigration tips led to someone asking for advice. That person became a paying client for my immigration consulting services. This was my first paid opportunity through writing. It all started with Niharikaa's support and guidance. I highly recommend her if you want help sharing your voice and growing on LinkedIn.

I joined Niharika’s Authentic Influence cohort, and it turned out to be the perfect nudge I needed to reconnect with a long-dormant interest and rediscover a skill I hadn’t explored since my college & school days.
Coming from a tech and IT background, my writing had primarily revolved around structured reporting, tech writeups and professional emails. This course offered a refreshing perspective, helping me understand how to structure content that genuinely engages an audience and apply editing techniques specifically suited for platforms like LinkedIn.
The course was thoughtfully paced, with a smooth and accessible flow that made learning feel natural rather than overwhelming. What truly stood out for me, though, was Niharika’s mindset and her approach to writing, not just as a creative exercise but as a sustainable habit. Her guidance on overcoming procrastination and building consistency through small, intentional practices has stayed with me well beyond the course.

Authentic Influence has been a fabulous experience for me. Some elements that I loved about it
➜ Doable, practical steps to follow
➜ Candid conversations
➜ Homework :)
Niharika's honest intent is visible in her approach. Her openness towards the vulnerabilities makes you comfortable and confident. I am deeply thankful for helping me in times when I was losing touch with my passion for writing. Best Wishes

I am writing to let you know that a coworker used to read my LinkedIn posts and recommend that I reverse mentor my leaders on 'Storytelling on social media platforms' for an event.
So, I'll be delivering a 1-hour session to my senior leadership team at the end of August.
