As a Product Manager turned Coach, Mentor, and Entrepreneur, I'm on a mission to help women unlock their full potential, both personally and professionally. My passion for empowerment runs deep, and I find great joy in helping women break free from societal stigmas, recognize their worth, and feel confident as they step into the most authentic versions of themselves.

My own journey to self-discovery was a rocky one. Like so many, I felt pressure to conform to society's expectations and struggled to balance fitting in with being true to myself. As a young mother, I climbed the corporate ladder while also providing solutions to everyday problems, but I never forgot the importance of self-love and the struggles that come with breaking molds without sacrificing confidence.

Over time, my reputation for helping others feel seen, heard and validated grew, and I found myself reigniting my passion for mentoring. Now, after 11 years of finding myself and discovering the power of guidance, I'm excited to help women develop healthy mindsets, find their voices, and create fulfilling and happy lives. Whether it's through workshops, courses, or speaking engagements, I'm passionate about inspiring women to just be and look within to discover their own path.

I firmly believe that everyone has the ability to break past the emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual blocks that hold them back, and sometimes all it takes is having a person in your corner who values your happiness and well-being as much as you do. I offer adaptive workshops, courses, and trainings that help women unlock their full potential through the power of self-love, self-worth, and confidence. Whether you're a leader looking to build resilience in your team or an individual seeking to overcome limiting mindsets, and achieve your goals, I'm dedicated to helping you achieve your full potential both personally and professionally.

I studied design in Switzerland and lived and worked there until 2016 when I moved to India at the age of 21. Since 2019 I’m based in Amsterdam, NL. In the last decade I had the privilege to work with big multinational brands and many promising startups across the world helping them scale their vision, organisation and products.

I am infinitely curious and have built a broad and deep knowledge-base that I love to draw from. Beyond design I am always learning more about economics, psychology, leadership and complex system design and incorporate these learnings into my work.

Abdallah Abu Sheikh

Abdallah Abu Sheikh

Abdallah Abu-Sheikh is one of the top serial entrepreneurs in the MENA region and a global
keynote speaker. He is globally renowned for launching ground-breaking future-ready
platforms centered on sustainability, mobility, and digitalization, led by unconventional
strategies and strong business ethics.
As the Co-Founder and CEO of Astra Tech, a UAE-based technology investment and

development group, Abdallah is spearheading the launch of a revolutionary new ‘ultra-
platform’, which will bring together selected consumer technologies, products, and services.

It is specifically designed to address the ‘platform fatigue’ many users are experiencing today.
Abdallah also leads BARQ, a first-of-its-kind tech-driven network of electric vehicles built to
serve the MENA region’s last mile delivery sector. As the Co-Founder and CEO of BARQ, he
heads a team that offers ground-breaking solutions to address the transport industry’s

much-needed demand for efficiency, comfort, and rider safety. BARQ EV has been well-
recognized as the first-ever licensed drone delivery service in the UAE.

Another of his highly successful projects is RIZEK, a localized digital marketplace launched in
2020, later acquired by Astra Tech in 2022. RIZEK aims to meet the lifestyle needs of UAE
residents through verified service providers. Securing over $10 million in funds, the
application was ranked among the Most-Funded Start-ups in the Middle East by Forbes ME.
Abdallah is also passionate about creating an informed youth community. He is often invited
to speak at regional and international platforms such as TEDx, delivering keynotes and
thought leadership speeches on start-up culture and fundraising, business strategies, growth
and diversification, digital transformation and more.
Looking back, Abdallah is a global citizen. He spent his younger years between England and
China, with a family presence in The Gambia in West Africa. Abdallah’s earlier projects were
focused on renewable energy and achieved $700 million in assets within three years of
entering sub-Saharan Africa. He studied at Dalhousie University in Canada, where he
acquired a degree in Accounting and Finance.
Abdallah has always steered clear from the culture of “founder fever”, where leaders talk big

but take no action. His approach to business took on a renewed perspective after life-
changing incident in 2014 that left him bound to a wheelchair for three months. This further

strengthened his resolve to practice mindful leadership.
