The wait is finally over.
On 24th August 2026, a Monday afternoon at the elegant M. L. Bhartia Auditorium inside Alliance Française de Delhi, Lodhi Garden, life coach, model and Empower You founder Puja A Pandey celebrated the official launch of her debut book, Own Your Ambition: Building a Life Beyond Borrowed Dreams, and by every measure, it was an evening to remember.
An Afternoon Designed With Intention
Guests began arriving from 1:30 PM, with the event starting sharp at 2:00 PM, welcomed with high tea and snacks in an atmosphere that felt warm and personal rather than formal. That choice of tone was deliberate, and it worked beautifully. This was not a distant, corporate book launch. It was an intimate gathering of people who came together to celebrate ambition, honesty and the courage it takes to build a life that is genuinely one’s own.
The auditorium filled with well-wishers, readers, media and friends, all present to witness a moment years in the making for the author.
A Distinguished Lineup That Elevated the Conversation
Puja shared the stage in conversation with an impressive panel of guests whose presence added depth and credibility to the afternoon, Maj Gen Bipin Bakshi, G. K. Kalra, Advocate and Astrologer, Poonam Bisth, Founder of Inspiration Pageant, Beila Gupta, and Sheena Gandhi, Entrepreneur and Founder of Towel Bagia.
Each guest brought a distinct perspective to the discussion, and together they created exactly the kind of rich, multidimensional conversation that Own Your Ambition itself is built around, self-worth, clarity, resilience and the practical courage required to chase a dream that was never handed down by someone else.
A Book That Resonated Instantly With the Room
Own Your Ambition explores the gap between movement and meaning, the quiet, unsettled feeling of doing everything right on paper while still feeling lost inside. As the invitation itself described it, this book is for everyone who dares to dream big and chase it anyway.
Judging by the energy in the room that afternoon, that message landed exactly as intended. Guests were seen flipping through early copies, engaging warmly with Puja and the panel, and staying well past the formal proceedings for conversation and connection, a clear sign of a launch that succeeded not just logistically, but emotionally.
Media Byte and a Moment Captured for the Record
The event concluded with a media byte session, ensuring that this milestone moment was properly documented for press and social coverage, extending the reach of the launch well beyond the auditorium itself.
A Launch That Lived Up to Its Own Message
Fittingly, the tone of the launch mirrored the tone of the book. Warm. Honest. Rooted in real connection rather than performance. Puja A Pandey closed the afternoon surrounded by the very community that had supported her journey, a full-circle moment for a story that began with confusion and quiet self-doubt and has now become a published book guiding others through the same path.
By every account, the launch of Own Your Ambition was not just successful, it was a genuine celebration, exactly as the invitation had promised: a day made even more special by everyone who showed up.
