i speak at global summits and host the self study podcast. but the part i care about most is the one-on-one: sitting with someone and helping them see who they are.

24 countries in, the best part is still the people.
how this started

it started in my DMs.

hundreds of thousands of people follow my reflections, and a lot of them message me. i started by replying to DMs.

but many of the people writing to me needed more than a reply. they needed real, dedicated support.

so i opened these 1:1 sessions: 45 minutes with someone who talks with hundreds of people every week, to get serious about your direction.

proof, honestly

a handful of conversations so far. no paid life direction sessions yet.

these sessions are new, so i'm not going to pretend otherwise. the first recaps go here as people give permission, first name only, in their words. until there are ten, the guarantee is the proof.

what people have written to me

“Your videos have changed my life.”
A., Instagram DM
“I was lucky enough to be called to tahajjud prayer and I never get up but today I did because I remembered what you said.”
Z., Instagram DM
“its helped me alot with ur reminders and im sure its helped thousands of others”
F., Instagram DM
“Your videos take us towards our religion and remind us of Allah.”
Y., Instagram DM
“your content truly is very inspirational and motivational.”
Z.A., Instagram DM
“It's so nice of you to mail me and asking about my issue.”
Z., after taking the compass

real messages, word for word. first initials only.

sound familiar?

be honest with yourself for a second.

you, right nowtap what's true

tap every line that sounds like you.

you don't need more motivation. you need a compass.

most people aren't lost because they're lazy. they're lost because no one ever helped them answer the first question: who am i?

my story

i lost track of who i was at fourteen.

Arman sitting in front of a crowd of children on a relief trip

i struggled with who i was from the age of 14. i moved around a lot as a kid, from the middle east to canada to the states. every move meant a new society, new friends, and a new version of me trying to fit in.

somewhere in there, i lost track of who i actually was.

i fell into the wrong crowd. i had habits i'm not proud of. i didn't practice my faith at all. i wasn't proud of the kid i was, or of what i was becoming.

what turned it around was a compass: my faith, the right friends, and the mentors i met through years of travel. religion showed me who i could be if i put my head down and tied my life to a mission bigger than me: serving people.

since then: marriage, financial freedom alhamdulillah, a page that brings people closer to their deen, and a life i don't need a break from.

this session is the shortcut i wish someone had given me at 19.

a session, from the inside

we didn't pick a business. we found him.

one session, shared anonymously45 min

a student came to me recently. his friends all had 9–5s, and he felt "brain dead" just thinking about it. he had ideas but no direction. we didn't pick a business. we found who he is. then we gave him one first step. he left with a direction he could act on that week.

who he is

the guy who connects people.

his why

freedom and productivity to serve his community.

first step

talk to 10 people and find real problems before building anything.

the compass method

six questions. one direction.

this is what every call runs on. we go in order, and we don't skip to the plan until the first two are clear.

01

who you are

what you're naturally good at, and what people already come to you for.

tool: the working genius assessment
02

your why

what you want your life to be for.

03

mindset, skillset, toolset

what has to change in how you think, what you need to learn, and what you need to use.

04

your wedge

where your gift meets a real problem. you find it by talking to people, not by guessing.

05

deen and dunya

remember death and legacy, re-align with your why, and do more in private.

06

your first step

one action this week, and the ideated plan behind it.

what you get

not a pep talk. a plan.

  3. 45 min on google meetplus a written recap of your first step, sent the same day.
  4. your written recapwho you are, your why, and your first step. sent the same day.

honestlythese sessions are new, so you'd be one of my first. i can't hand you a new life in 45 minutes. what i can promise is that you'll know who you are, what you're for, and what to do this week.

who it's for
for you

anyone at a crossroads.

students, young professionals, anyone feeling scattered, stuck or far from their deen.

not for you

if you're looking for therapy.

this is coaching: direction and a plan, not a clinical service.

the guarantee

the "not another pep talk" guarantee.

if you reach the end of our call without a clear direction and one thing to do this week, say so before we hang up and i refund you in full. the thing you're afraid of is paying for an hour of nice words. that's exactly what i'm promising you won't get.

questions

before you book.

is this therapy?

no. this is coaching: a conversation grounded in faith and real life. it isn't a clinical service, and i don't give religious rulings. if what you're carrying is heavier than a conversation, i'll tell you honestly and point you toward the right help.

i'm not religious. is it still for me?

yes. faith is part of how i see things, and it comes in as much as you want it to. the method works either way.

is it recorded?

only if you want it to be. say so at the start. either way you get a written recap the same day, and nothing is ever shared without your ok.

can we keep working together after?

yes. if you want the next 12 weeks done with me in your corner, there's a 12-week 1:1 with a weekly call. your $97 comes off it if you join within 7 days of our call. i'll mention it once at the end. you decide.

why only $97?

because it's our first time working together and the real work is the 12 weeks after. this call is where we find out if we should.

refunds and rescheduling

no clear direction and no first step by the end of the call, say so before we hang up and i refund you in full. you can reschedule up to 24 hours before. no-shows aren't refunded. sessions are on google meet, open worldwide, times in ET.
