NextImg:UK woman laments spending her life pursuing career after finding herself alone and childless after 40

"As a lawyer, you start to internalize the message of perfection - you start to identify with it and hold yourself to that impossible expectation," she said. "You have to know the law inside out and the advice you give has to always be 100 percent. If you're wrong, there are huge consequences."

Amriit regrets the fact that her unwavering commitment to her career deprived her of the opportunity to become a mother. "Because I put my legal career first," she said, "There was no time for children."

"I always thought, 'Oh, it'll happen at some point. I remember vividly coming up to my forties and I knew time had basically run out," Amriit continued. "I grieved the loss for nearly two years."

Around that time she decided to quit her career and was later diagnosed with PTSD. Amriit is now a TEDx speaker, mentoring others while living a balanced healthy life full of purpose, she said.
