Hi, I’m Shakila Majid
ICF Certified Coach (ACC) - iPEC certified COR.E Dynamics Transition Specialist - iPEC ELI Master Practitioner
“I support individuals to lead change in their world, be it personal or professional, desired or unexpected.”
MY STORY
The “change game” in life…you could say I know a thing or two when it comes to playing it.
My journey in embracing change in life was brought to the forefront by my experience as an immigrant. Most of us can imagine how challenging of an experience that can be - the unknown, the adjustments, the culture shock.
I’ve been an immigrant not once, but twice in my life.
I’ve called Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States home.
I worked in London then shifted into being a New Yorker as an expatriate forging a career at a large multinational consultancy. I then had to pivot when I became a tandem spouse to an expatriate and was unable to pursue a career because of visa requirements. In sharp contrast to my corporate career, as marriage and motherhood demands grew - I embraced the life of a domestic goddess.
Today, I live as a single mum raising a teenager while launching my own business, leveraging all the changes and experiences along the way.
Change and the journey through transitions have been my constant companions.
When faced with the opportunity to evolve through change I was fortunate to be surrounded by others who allowed me the space I needed to think out loud and play with possibilities. I was able to confidently build a life that continues to propel me forward and lead me to experiences I never thought possible. Looking back, I realize how invaluable that gift was.
It is what drives me as a coach. It is the foundation of the support I provide to each one of my clients who are seeking transformation as they embark on their personal transition journey.
