“Finding balance and embracing connections have truly changed my life. I've learned that prioritizing mental health is paramount in today's fast-paced world. It's not just about productivity; it's about nurturing ourselves and finding fulfillment in every aspect of life.”

In Ahmedabad's bustling streets, amidst the vivid tapestry of culture and commerce, there is a sanctuary for professionals seeking escape from the daily grind. Among them is Savan Soni, a seasoned gold valuer whose search for balance and connection brought him to Uncubate CoWorking.



Savan ran his own manufacturing unit,Even in the midst of his bustling business, he frequently had bouts of loneliness while working. However, when he switched to remote work from home, things changed for the worst. Savan's mental health declined significantly during his four years of solitude. The lack of human interaction left him feeling trapped and disconnected from outer world, desiring the connection that comes with being surrounded by others.

April 1st, 2024, marked a turning point in Savan's journey as he stepped into the welcoming embrace of Uncubate CoWorking. Here, among a diverse group of coworkers, he found peace in the warmth of human connection and the loving embrace of community. Through heartfelt talks and meaningful interactions, he discovered a renewed feeling of purpose and belonging that extended beyond the bounds of professional commitments.


In order to tackle his mental health issues, Savan set out on an extended journey of healing and self-discovery, guided by courses and therapy, along with joining a human surrounded workspace. Slowly, he witnessed a significant transformation within himself as he developed resilience and accepted vulnerability, characterized by increased confidence and inner calm.

Savan's path demonstrates the importance of prioritizing well-being in today's hectic society. In the continuous pursuit of productivity, the importance of self-care and emotional resilience is frequently overlooked. However, more than just finding a job; it's about adopting a lifestyle that prioritizes long-term success and fulfillment.

In the professional world, we must also consider our mental health. Consider Savan's experience, for example. When working from home, it's easy to become overwhelmed by the responsibilities of the job, resulting in stress and feelings of isolation. Coworking spaces can be a beneficial addition in this regard. They provide opportunities to interact with others, building connections that interrupt the cycle of loneliness. By getting out of our work bubbles and socializing with other professionals in these common places, we not only find moments of peace, but also restore our creative batteries, enhancing our productivity when we return to work.
