Saniya is truly a coach that is cheering you on! She talks out your concerns with you in a direct, but gentle way. I could see myself only having her guidance in my career path. I can't wait for the next session!

Saniya broke down the daunting task of elevating my resume into bite sized pieces. I was seeking help because I am in the process of pivoting my career and didn't know how to tell my work history in a cohesive manner. Not only did Saniya help me do this, she also got into the nitty gritty to help craft more compelling bullet points (rather than simply listing an accomplishment). She is friendly, professional, enthusiastic and such a whiz. I definitely recommend her to those who seek guidance revamping their resume or navigating a career transition.

I can't say enough good things about Saniya as a coach. When I started my first session with her, I was lost and very disorganized on my priorities regarding my career, balancing my early-stage start-up, and my other side hustles. Throughout my first few sessions with Saniya, she helped me figure out what was most important to me and where I wanted to focus my time. She gave me tangible exercises to execute this and has been an invaluable resource as I have shifted my focus to marketing for my start-up. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the marketing and start-up landscape and helps you take small steps forward so that it doesn't feel overwhelming. For anyone looking for a coach in this space, I highly recommend working with Saniya!!

I went into my session with Saniya hoping to generate some ideas about how I could get unstuck and approach a career change without throwing away everything I've built over the last several years. I'm happy to say I got exactly what I'd hoped for and more! Saniya came prepared with thoughtful questions and ideas that helped open my mind to possible opportunities I hadn't even considered. She was fully engaged in our conversation and made me feel totally at ease. Most importantly, she truly listened to what I had to say, and she provided encouragement and validation in areas I felt unsure about. Everything about the experience was personalized and focused. I came out of the session feeling energized and with a much clearer sense of my next steps—something I haven't felt in what seems like ages. Thank you, Saniya!

Saniya is wonderful! She is so compassionate, supportive, and kind. She not only helped me tremendously during our session together, but she was also available at the last minute to help me edit my resume before a last minute interview. She is awesome and I highly recommend her!

This was my second session with Saniya and I can't even count how many times I've recommended her to my friends and colleagues. Saniya guided me in my transition into a new industry, helped me with confidence building, and worked with me in creating a professional resume that landed me interviews and my current job in the non-profit sector. She has always given me solid advice and numerous resources that has only shown care in her coaching and commitment to her clients. I honestly couldn't thank Saniya enough!
