"It was fantastic working with Dr. Z and her team to engineer and facilitate a workshop for our team on “Moving Forward – from Surviving to Thriving”. As we emerge from the pandemic and our teams are more overwhelmed than ever, Dr. Z’s approach has provided us with a framework for coping with evolving pressures of our dynamic work and personal lives. Dr. Z really connected with our team, and has left lasting impact – thank you for providing energy and thought provoking discussion."

Dr. Maryam Zeinedden gave the audience something rare at The SHIFT Sessions: permission. Permission to stop performing, to tell the truth, and to lead from a place that feels honest and whole. Her talk was thoughtful, grounded, and deeply resonant. One of those talks people keep returning to in conversation. You can add Dr Z. to your roster with confidence.
