also a husband, dad, son, coach, leader, humanitarian & Citizen of the world
I often tell those I’m close to that I feel as though I’ve already lived several lifetimes in my 4 decades on the planet. I’ve had several careers, lived in many parts of the world and have met, befriended and worked with some of the most extraordinary people and minds of our time.
I was blessed enough to be born in to a small Bangladeshi community in Queens (and later Long Island), NY, where cultivating community, understanding our humanity and making a difference for people were the norm of my upbringing.
Combined with all my years of serving people both in my jobs and in my business, I’ve gotten to mentor thousands of people over the past 15 years and all of it has given me the privilege of growth and an expanded capacity to serve others…
Justice, humanity, growth and development and more than anything else – having people achieve what’s important to them and empowering them to make a difference and fulfill on their life’s work – those are the things that drive me.
CONNECT & ALIGN
Our relationships to ourselves is often the most complex and the last one we work through. It can be such a difficult relationship, that sometimes, many of us never get to it.
When we do deal with it however, that’s when true alignment takes place. When we can live life conscious of our ego and free from constraint, that’s when the magic of life begins to happen to us and blossom all around us.
From a cluttered mass of things that have happened in our past, our experiences, our judgments and everything else living piles upon us, we can transform our lives into created ones – ones designed by us, in alignment and given by a true and meaningful connection with who we really are.
When we get in the game of mastering this relationship – the one with herself – that’s when life gets really good.

two sides of a coin
If you relate to comfort and discomfort (or getting uncomfortable) as two sides of the same coin, you’ll see that there is no one without the other. And although their relationship is inverse, the existence of each is dependent upon the other’s existence.
The way we’ve been acculturated as societies over the past hundred years or so, seeking comfort and avoiding discomfort has been ingrained into our DNA, particularly in Western culture. The thinking is backwards and meant to keep you from never feeling satisfied and always wanting for more.
When we can ‘grock’ that comfort and discomfort will always coexist, we can start to appreciate their value appropriately. What types of comforts are we seeking, and what discomforts do those help us avoid. What does that avoidance cost us?
OR, what if our access to the comforts we really seek, the ones authentically important to us are right outside our collective zones and require getting uncomfortable in order to attain and enjoy? How far would you be willing to go, or how uncomfortable can you tolerate getting to have what You really want. Not you, but You.
