Hi there, I'm Maryam.

I work with midlifers to cultivate deeper intention & wisdom in their relationships so they feel nourished in life's second half.

Meet my pup, Shadow! He's my daily reminder to slow down, be present, and remember that play is just as important as the hustle!

You had ideas and plans for this stage of your life, but somehow things haven't turned out as expected. Now, you may feel unsettled - craving something more in your life and relationships but unsure what that is or how to access it. 

This feeling is common in midlife - a restless yearning to live more fully, with relationships that feel truly nourishing... 

As we navigate the shifting terrain of middle-age, our relationships - with both Self and others - evolve. The discomfort of these ups and downs can feel endless.  But there is an option: growth

While growth can also be uncomfortable (and takes effort), it is a temporary discomfort that brings us closer to the life and relationships we envision for ourselves. 

Mental fitness is key. 

Our mental fitness is the best predictor of how happy we are and how well we navigate midlife's challenges. 

Through my own growth, I've learned to live and lead with the long view in mind while tending to life's immediate needs. I strive to be intentional in my relationships, knowing they are a conerstone of happiness and well-being, while also learning to find peace with connections that can no longer be what they once were.

It hasn't always been easy, but it has become easier. 

As a resilience coach, I help you to do the same - accelerating the process in a way that's unique to you.    

My Approach

With a master's degree in Organizational Psychology and research in Positive Psychology and Women's Studies, I bring a unique, evidence-based perspective to support you using proven tools and strategies. 

I work with you both personally and professionally

-Personally: To cultivate intention and wisdom in your relationships (with Self and others) so you feel nourished in your connections. 

-Professionally: To amplify your impact and make your professional journey more meaningful and fulfilling. 

I am a graduate of Coach U, Inc. (a leading global provider of coach training) and continually aim to develop my skills based on current research and techniques. 

Beyond Coaching

To nurture my connection with myself and others, I replenish my mind and body by practicing Tai Chi, hiking, camping, and even decluttering my closets. 

One of my greatest passions is volunteering at my local animal shelter, where I work with dogs, help them find homes, and support their well-being - while also collaborating with the dedicated team that cares for them.  While this work has its challenges, it is deeply meaningful and fulfilling. 

If you'd like to know more about my coaching style, drop me a note here, and let's chat.

Thank you for allowing me to share in your journey.

YOU are the most important project you'll ever work on.
