Feeling stuck mid-career?
You have years of experience, but you feel pulled in many directions and unsure what truly sets you apart, making it hard to focus or start new ideas. Or you have a network and ambitions, including diversifying your income, but aren’t sure how to activate your connections or take the first steps.

Testimonials
- Aaisha was wonderful in not only demonstrating the power of open communication and vulnerability, but also creating relatable scenarios for our teams to provide realistic input. Having this session allowed us all to take a minute and understand one another as both professionals and human beings- something all teams need every once in a while.
Sabrina B
Associate Director of Operations - I loved Aaisha's writing workshop! She is a great facilitator and really encouraged us to go deeper. I took her family systems workshop and was astounded by what I learned about myself and those I hold dearest to me. Highly recommend Aaisha and her workshops!
