As a British coach, consultant, and public speaker, Sobiya helps people in different ways. The coaching is one:one support mostly around confidence and mindset to help the client reach her potential. As a consultant, she works with companies wanting to improve their diversity, equity and inclusion, and as a public speaker, Sobiya draws on both her personal experience as a Muslim woman-of-color in the UK, as well as her professional expertise. She believes that, as a public figure, her authenticity is paired with healthy boundaries. This balance allows her to handle difficult situations and continue to support her clients. Her faith in Sunni Islam and the Sufi teachings support her every day.
Highlights:
· Being authentic is central to her sense of self and her work.
· Searching for answers led Sobiya to deepen her Islamic faith as a young adult.
· She has experienced discrimination as a visible Muslim woman-of-color, so she empathizes with clients struggling with that challenge.
· Coaching, consulting, and training are each valuable offerings and accomplish different things.
· You can be authentic and have boundaries. They are not at odds with each other.
