This entire coaching journey with you was an enriching experience. I learnt about my mental blocks and limitations that hamper my progress. You also taught me how to deal with difficult situations and remain positive under difficult circumstances. I also realized the importance of playing on my strengths and how to tactfully handle complex situations. Have been to several coaching platforms but this one was extremely fruitful. I feel at this stage of my age and career, I needed a more thoughtful and personalized coaching plan. Thank you for being there

Hi Fariha,
It was a pleasure speaking with you. The way you touched upon various elements and linked them with the bigger goal was very interesting. Also, the detailed personality chart and effective ways to overcome obstacles and adversity at different levels were something new to me.
Thanks for your time and effort.
Fariha is an exceptional coach and an HR leader who has personally helped me a lot as I transitioned to a global role. She enlightened me on the nuances of leadership and how to work in a multicultural environment and also made me realize my blind spots in the journey. She has very high empathy, and when she is trying to help- she digs at the roots instead of just hacking the leaves. She is the best coach I have worked with, and her insightful, nuanced and practical advice has helped me become a better version of myself.
I recently had the opportunity to attend a really enlightening professional coaching session with Fariha. Her structured approach, empathetic listening skills, and clarity of thought are traits I found quite commendable. As this was my first session with a qualified coach, I am glad it was with a professional like Fariha, who had an illustrious Corporate Career in HR backed by sound credentials.
I’ve had Fariha have a coach for some time, and she was great at helping me work through blocks getting in my way and getting me toward those goals I had been trying to achieve. I recommend her to anyone interested in having some coaching.
I was referred to Fariha by a friend for a life/leadership coaching session. I was skeptical about the whole utility of life coaching as such. However, after a few sessions with her, I’m an absolute believer in the efficacy and utility of such coaching sessions.
Fariha, in a few sessions, not only managed to help me identify core issues & pain points that I’ve been troubling me for yrs but also enabled me to self-prescribe ways to manage and make progress in the resolution of those issues.
Fariha has exceptional abilities to make people comfortable around her. She connects almost instantly & effortlessly with people on a deeper emotional level; thus, she’s able to get to the core & even complex issues reasonably quickly.
Strongly recommend having sessions with her to iron out life issues that somehow are almost too overwhelming to handle on our own.
I am delighted to get a chance to meet you; thanks to Arshia and her team for this.
Not every day you get a chance to meet with someone who resonates with the same energy and values as you. We connected well, and I have no idea where the 90 minutes of our discussion went. I can’t thank you enough for your willingness to understand my challenges and your desire to help me further despite the time limitation.
During our discussion, you really helped declutter my mind, which I’d very much needed, and by the end of our conversation, I was only further motivated to pursue my interests. What I liked the most was your acknowledgment of my challenges and encouragement. I left the room with the conclusion that I will only go the extra mile which is needed for my own growth regardless of other factors.
I wish to stay connected with you.
It was a beneficial and unique intervention. The session stretched over the scheduled time by almost 45 mins, and Fariha ensured that we could comfortably complete our conversation.
Positives:
Confidentiality of the session helped me be candid in the setting.
Fariha made sure I openly shared my ultimate ambitions, and we collectively derived the attributes needed to achieve them. Moreover, received guidance on how to acquire and exhibit the identified skills/attributes.
Fariha guided me on the spectrum of energy levels that leaders possess and shared tips on how to improve on them to succeed in personal & professional life.
Also received excellent advice from Fariha on overcoming fears and biases; the best part was that I could openly share my vulnerabilities without fearing repercussions.
Recommendations:
Prior details on what to expect from the session would make it even more fruitful.
Follow-up sessions would be great for tracking progress in the identified areas.
I have known Fariha for over ten years. We worked together at GSK – Fariha is non-judgmental, intelligent, caring, and passionate about her craft.
I had been thinking of getting a coach for a long time but was unsure if it would help me. A Coach who could help me to navigate through my career aspiration & also accelerate the leadership energy to achieve that.
Working with her exceeded my expectations by far, as she has been able to guide me wholistically on my career journey and its relationship with the leading energy needed for sustainable performance and personal growth.
Her coaching also helped me orient and organize my thoughts around self-determination and acceptance of others’ uniqueness and well-being.
I’m thankful to Fariha for her impact on my career.
