Success Stories
I often felt undervalued at work and believed I deserved a promotion, but I lacked the courage to ask for it. After attending my coaching sessions, I gained a deeper understanding of my worth and developed the confidence to take action. It was remarkable how quickly things changed for me, not only did my professional life improve, but my home life did as well. I became happier both at home and at work, feeling truly valued and empowered in my decisions.
Before as an individual I was quite negative and always overthinking and anxious to do absolutely anything and because of this I was in a cycle of depression and wanted to get out of it and didn’t know how so with yours and Shahidas help with the workshop I feel so more relaxed and confident which I wouldn’t have been without you guys and I feel like because of this life change I’ve been able to get myself a job and it has been almost a year with my job search and I just wanted to thank you guys.
The coaching I received from women who look like me who understood my journey made all the difference. While I had previously attended sessions through work, I often felt disconnected from the coaches, as they hadn’t truly walked in my shoes. I was overwhelmed and on the brink of burnout, struggling with chaos in my mind. Thanks to the guidance I received, I now feel more present and focused, both at work and at home. I can navigate my challenges with greater efficiency and clarity. Sara Yasmin Bow Tower Hamlets
Assalamualaikum sis. Thank you for yesterday’s Workshop. I really needed it alhamdulilah. May Allah bless you helping people like me. I made changes and now feel more in control of my thoughts and how I react to things. I will not let other people's opinions affect my day and peace.
Shahida has been an incredible life coach who truly shined light on my darkest days. She helped me shake off all the negative energy and guided me to tap into my true light. With her support, I’ve grown into the best version of myself, realising that I am the prize, full of unique talents and potential. Her wisdom, encouragement, and belief in me have been life-changing, and I am forever grateful for her guidance on this beautiful journey.
I wanted to share the positive feedback we received from a client who attended your workshop. You have had a life-changing impact. Keep doing what you are doing.
