Meet Shirin

[ The Human Behind The Coach ]

Hi there! I’m Shirin, and I’m delighted to share my journey with you. I was born in the vibrant city of Tehran, Iran (in the 80s) to middle-class parents who dedicated their lives to their careers and making countless sacrifices for the sake of our family. From a young age, I learned the value of hard work and perseverance. My parents’ sacrifices deeply influenced me, and it became my mission to excel in everything I did—driven by a deep desire to repay their efforts. 

But as I strived to be the "best" at everything, so did the silent process of losing myself & my passions. My life was a hall of fame of achievements; yet I felt increasingly disconnected and questioned “What’s the point of this life anyway?”.

After earning my B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, I moved to Los Angeles to pursue my M.Sc. in EE honored with a prestigious fellowship award from USC. I launched my career as a design engineer, diving into groundbreaking projects and technologies. To the outside world I was an impersonation of success! But my inner world was dull, dark and meaningless. I struggled with crippling anxiety, depression and void. I was “functioning”, and my driving force was my severe fear and anxiety of not being enough and worthy. As years went by my career, while fulfilling in many ways, left me feeling depleted and the darkness inside me kept growing.

Almost a decade into my engineering career, I knew something had to change. I had NO IDEA who I was and what I wanted from life. So, I made a bold decision to leave behind my stable career and embark on a path of self-discovery. This journey was both exhilarating and challenging—filled with moments of clarity and chaos, and by that point I had to deal with the numerous chronic mental and physical health issues I’ve accumulated all these years!

With the unwavering support of my husband, therapist, family, doctors and coaches in the next few years, I began to find answers to my “What’s the point of this life anyway?” question. The essence of life for me was: to heal, explore, teach, support and truly enjoy! And if I’m being completely honest; thus far it has been an awe-inspiring, yet intense, adventure. 

Having lived through my life so far, I am passionately dedicated to helping others uncover their own purpose and achieve lasting transformations in their unique lives. I believe that with small, intentional changes, EVERYONE can (and deserves to) create a life that feels both fulfilling and authentic.

I’m excited to be part of your journey and to support you in discovering your best self, one step at a time.

With Love,
-Shirin
