Your inner world
shapes how far you
go in the outer one.
You can’t override your internal patterns with more skills, education, or motivation, until you address what’s driving them.
I'm Dr. Shadé Zahrai, a former lawyer/banker turned self-leadership expert, researcher and author. I help people take control of the internal forces shaping their decisions, confidence, and performance, using science-backed, practical tools that actually work.
