FROM A FEW CLIENTS...
Yogesh Farswani
Head of Department
Aviation
After a lifetime of being mentored and coached by seniors within the organization, and extending the same courtesy to those behind me, I wasn’t quite sure that an external coach could understand the context and make enough of a difference in daily behavior/choices. Post pandemic however this changed especially given remote work. For those of us who spent their life in office, need for a sounding board was real…
I was introduced to Sonam by another mentor (and father figure).. after the initial interaction, it was apparent that she was a good listener. After the second interaction, I found myself acknowledging that I lacked the commitment to dig deep, but I could benefit from “change management” support… and so agreed to enlist her services for a six week sprint that would be focused on job transition-management.
Thanks to Sonam’s attentiveness, active listening and incisive line of questioning each week, I can honestly say that I am an evolved professional. She has helped me raise my self awareness and dispel subconscious-bias, so that I can launch my next professional chapter with clear intent and chutzpah!!
Sonam’s biggest asset is her commitment to enabling her clients to watch their actions/choices in 3rd person in real time so the past habits don’t self sabotage success. Her diligent follow-up, note-taking of smallest of nuances in word pattern serves as a personal game-changer.
I wish her tremendous success & highly recommend her programs to all desirous of a better tomorrow. Having recently graduated from the six-week sprint, I have already referred other clients to her… I urge anyone who is going through change management to seriously consider Sonam’s support.

Sonam brings her whole self to client sessions, quickly responding to the needs of the day and being willing to go wherever necessary that day. She brings a listening ear, a sharp mind to expose contradictions in my thoughts, and asks critical questions that I sometimes need to consider for days afterward. She not only ends sessions leaving me with clarity of action based on disentangling my concerns, but co-builds with me new ways in which I see myself and the relationships around me.
I would highly recommend Sonam especially because of her versatility of being a coach, a cheerleader, an action-oriented planner, often all within the same session. Her attention to detail and willingness to get her hands dirty with frameworks, calendar entries, and structuring unstructured data has been immensely valuable to define, measure and track my own often subjective goals, even as they change when existing goals are completed.

Sonam's dedication to helping you achieve your goals is both relentless and compassionate. She is deeply committed to your success, often even more than you are. She brings a systematic and mindful approach to her work. Sonam offers structured frameworks for cognitive support and genuine warmth for emotional support.
She has implemented systems across three key areas of my life: career, health, and relationships. She has guided me in setting boundaries while thriving and embracing who I am.
From a coach, she has evolved into a trusted friend. Her unwavering commitment to going above and beyond and her meticulous preparation for every meeting have earned my profound respect for her work.

I cannot recommend working with Sonam enough. I was treading through some complex issues at work. By the end of my sessions my entire perspective on my problems had changed.

Sonam is a fantastic coach. She is a great listener and takes the time to understand the drivers/barriers behind achieving a goal instead of jumping headfirst into solutions. She helped me see perspectives that I could not have seen myself. It helped me take tangible actions vs. being stuck in a loop and helped alleviate the anxiety of the process towards reaching my goals. She brings in empathy and trust to the conversations, two crucial aspects to an honest coaching conversation.

Working with Sonam has been the best decision I made this year. I was buried under a pile of work and felt burnt out when I approached her. Her nonjudgmental approach and unwavering support helped me get past the situation and make space for bigger and meaningful goals and aspirations. Working with Sonam has been like peeling layers and discovering new possibilities for me. I highly recommend Sonam for anyone feeling stuck or even if things are smooth sailing but you are curious to see what’s next.

Director, Business Transformation

Sonam is an extremely patient coach, who values your time and hers and as a result, conversations with her are extremely effective. Sometimes you go through life, assuming that your beliefs about yourself are hard coded - and it's such a subconscious thing, and it doesn't come to the surface organically. That's where Sonam really helped me. She let me vent about what was bothering me and where I needed help, but her incisive questions at the right times during my rant, really helped us get to the root cause very effectively and that discovery has helped me grow tremendously as an individual over the last few months. I am super grateful that I went for life coaching with Sonam and will definitely consider doing it again, should I find myself at cross roads, getting in the way of my own success.

Sonam connected with me at a depth that I didn’t expect in a short duration of time. She made a very fair assessment of my challenges and really helped me introspect on areas where I was putting pressure on myself to achieve a certain standard. Especially when it comes to parenting where there are many factors outside of my control. She helped me figure out the things that were most important to me and strategies to get to a healthy state of mind putting aside self judgement when I couldn’t be the text book parent. I would highly recommend Sonam!
