About Sahar | Leadership Strategist & Neuroscience Consultant
"I didn’t become a leadership strategist by accident. I became one by necessity."
With a childhood shaped by constant movement across seven countries, I learned early how to adapt, observe, and find strength in understanding people deeply. I didn’t come from certainty or privilege. I came from a drive to rise, lead, and transform. Every hardship taught me compassion. Every obstacle revealed a lesson I now pass on to the leaders I coach.
Today, I use neuroscience, emotional clarity, and human-first strategy to help leaders rewrite their stories—just like I rewrote mine.
Global Experience Meets Strategic Science
I hold a double bachelor's in Internal Medicine and Surgery with a focus in Psychiatry, and I’ve worked across sectors from healthcare to government. My coaching work is grounded in brain-based strategy and emotionally intelligent leadership.
​
I’ve been honored as one of the Top 15 Coaches in Los Angeles by "Influence Digest" and received congressional recognition for my programs for my impact through executive training programs.
As a certified Google AI Ethics & Principles coach and long-time executive strategist, I merge innovation with empathy to deliver lasting results.
