I grew up in a traditional culture where the definition of success for women was "marrying rich and having babies." Then, I went into a traditional field (law) where the definition of success was "making a lot of money" - sometimes at all costs. Neither option, Option (A) the old-world definition of success or Option (B) the old-school patriarchal definition of success appealed to my sensibilities as an intelligent, educated woman. So, I rebelled. I decided to take ownership of my life. I fought to step up into my vision of success so I could finally get my needs met!!! There is likewise a unique vision of success inside of you. It is ready to be birthed. What will YOU choose to do? Will you take a stand for your freedom, fulfillment, and happiness? Claim it? Own it? Or will you continue to let outside forces dictate who you should be and what you should want?

I am a fighter and, for the most part, I fought for my freedom. Perhaps it was noble but was exhausting. It took its toll. Along the way, I learned how to manage my mind and train it to be my ally, not my enemy! I learned that it is okay to ask for support. I learned that I am deserving of the support and guidance that I give to others. I learned how to receive and flow. That’s when things really shifted. 😊✨ I now use that knowledge to help my clients step up into their version of success faster and with more ease and grace. < Collaborating, receiving, and being graceful are states that are more alighted with who we are as women. 🥰 So , you see, my dear, struggling is a choice. It is an option; it is not the law. Follow for more insight. @arezoukohan ✨💕🖤

I don’t know why I went to law school. Maybe because my father was a prominent lawyer (and the advisor to the Shah) in Iran and I wanted to follow in his footsteps. Maybe because I saw both of my sisters get royally screwed in their divorces and I wanted to know my rights. 😉 Probably because I still didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life. While it made my family ecstatically happy, it left me feeling empty inside. I longed for more! I longed for fulfillment and meaning. I longed for joy. Around the age of 30, I decided to take personal responsibility and ownership of my life. I started educating myself and empowering myself through courses, etc. I was committed and willing to do “whatever it takes.” It was LIBERATING. In the process, I learned how challenging it is for us to succeed on our own terms – especially as women because the system is rigged against us. Now, I help my clients/students ditch the sacrifice and struggle. I show them exactly how to step up into a life-work that is self-honoring so that they get their unique needs met. I wake up grateful knowing that I am living the life I am meant to live. ✨ ♦️What do you think? Do you agree that it is time for us to ditch the sacrifice and the struggle? 🔹 Follow for more inspiration, insight, and tips.
