Maybe things Didn't go according to plan

You did everything by the book, you’re a hard worker, and on paper things are impressive.

You were supposed to have this incredible career, helping others, making a difference, getting paid handsomely, and feeling on top of the world.

Except it didn’t turn out that way.

Inside, you’re unfulfilled and lack meaning in your life. Maybe you’re even downright miserable.

You feel like a square peg in a round hole.

You’ve invested so much time, money, and energy into this gig that you feel stuck.

A career change sounds terrifying but you also don’t know how you can ever be happy where you are now. Maybe you have student debts or you purchased your own practice.

You’re disconnected from yourself and on most days you function on autopilot, often in survival mode. You have no idea what you want, but you know this isn’t it.

You feel like nothing you do is ever good enough. You question/doubt your knowledge and skills constantly and have a paralyzing fear of making mistakes.

You’ve come to the right place.

What Clients are Saying:

Dr. Bakhtiar is not only an amazing dentist (speaking from personal experience) but also an exceptional coach. I was blessed to have her guide me and coach me through some of the most challenging times I endured fairly early on in my career. In addition to that, she also helped me with my personal (relationships) struggles. I completed 8 sessions . I however started noticing a difference in my approach within the first two sessions . Not only did she help me overcome my biggest fears and struggles, but she also taught me a lot about myself. I have learned some amazing life skills that are not only applicable in succeeding in my professional career, but also my personal day to day life. I can’t thank you enough for your time and help. You are awesome .

“Going through intense schooling, graduating, and finally becoming a doctor; I thought to myself, this was it. I should now be happy. But I was not. Physically I was there, mentally I was unaware. Unaware of the mental prison I had put myself in from a young age. Speaking with Dr Bhaktiar over the past couple months helped me become aware of my own thoughts and freed me from my own mind. I feel much more confident with my achievements, less doubtful of myself, and all while still being myself. Thank you.”

"Yasmin’s coaching clarified a lot of what was frustrating me at work and gave me the tools to consistently manage my stress and understand the root cause. She is easy to talk to and very quick to find the real problem and start tackling it. I just wish I had found her sooner!"

“ Yasmin is a masterful and skilled life coach with the ability to assess the problem in a warm and understanding way. As such, I have always felt comfortable to share my thoughts and concerns openly and honestly with her during our sessions. Yasmin’s insights and perspective, including the new awareness she has offered me during our sessions have been eye opening and have given me the ability to shift my mind to a new way of thinking about the issue presented. The experience of having Yasmin coach me has been invaluable.”

"I went to Yasmin for life coaching because I was stuck and wanted to accomplish major goals in my life. She taught me how my thoughts create my feelings and drive my behaviors. I've learned how to think on purpose and I’m no longer on autopilot. Yasmin's ability to actively listen and help me sort through my thoughts have truly been life changing. She helped me unmask deep-rooted beliefs that were holding me back. She also taught me that resistance is a part of change, which was a huge breakthrough for me. I would absolutely recommend Yasmin to my family and friends. She's amazing and knows her stuff!"

"Results after working with Yasmin: finally feeling like I was making REAL progress and gaining traction in overcoming some very nasty limiting beliefs. Losing 15 lbs of very stubborn weight gain from months of "eating my feelings." Feeling like I had the SUPPORT and accountability system to actually "get something done" in both my inner and outer world. Bottom line, coaching with Yasmin is so worth it. In the beginning, I was skeptical because I didn't think someone else could help me work through stuff I'd been trying to address for years with many different strategies. Yasmin helped me to gain more clarity around my daily thought processes that were keeping me stuck. Best coach I've ever worked with, hands down."
