Meet Sharmin

Sharmin is a woman that does it all. She’s a life coach that helps teens, women, men, and couples all the while balancing her personal life and...oh yeah, hosting a radio show. She started as a nurse and since then has evolved. She had a very profound experience with an AIDs patient, back when we didn’t know as much about the condition. She wasn’t sure how to handle it, but the first thing she saw was the patient’s eyes. They were full of loneliness and despair. At that moment her fear and anxiety around this person disappeared.

She found herself trying to figure out what this patient needed which was simply connection. She held his hand, shaved him, bathed him, and conversed with him. For her, it had been a profound experience feeling connected to someone. As she was getting ready to go he said: “Thank you for making me feel like a human being.” That’s when she felt a shift in herself, and her career. She realized there was a mind, body, and spirit connection. All three needed to be fulfilled in order to actually heal from anything. That’s when she decided to go into holistic nursing.

She studied at Brigham's and Women’s Hospital doing skin-to-skin care which was an amazing opportunity for her to study there as holistic nursing at this time wasn’t utilized as much in the ’90s. Following the momentum, she spoke to 500 nurses on the power of human touch. This was crazy to her as she was such a young nurse in the field. This was just another step in her journey towards finding connectivity with the world and leading a purpose driven life.

After having children she took a break from working and lost herself a little bit. She communicated this with her husband, expressing how she felt she needed to find her inner truth and who she was. This started her journey to train in yoga to become a teacher. Her classes kept turning into coffee meetings with her clients who were moved by something she had said.

All these little instances led her to realize her calling which was to become a life coach. To connect with people in a real way, where she is now living her purpose driven life. She still teaches yoga but life coaching is where she really thrives.

“Sharmin Home” is the name of her business and embodies her mission. She wants people to find their home within. To feel safe and know their truth in their core. Her business is run out of her home to create a safe space for people to truly explore and find themselves through genuine connection.

Just Try It!

There is a lot that holds us back when it comes to our own internal dialogue. But as Sharmin quotes “You’ll fail 100% of the time if you never try.” If you have look at the possibilities and see what you can do. If you find your own mind filling you with doubt and anxiety, try and stop the crazy thoughts then just try. You have to try new things and expose yourself to new ideas in order to learn. The more that you learn throughout this life, the more you can apply it to the rest of your journey. Sometimes you have to go outside the box and think “what will it take to make something possible?” You might fail, but it might lead you to the next step that leads you to a purpose driven life.

You Cannot Need Everyone To Like You  

Sharmin has taken chances before her ego could get in the way. Her mind will fill her with those doubts and fears that will take you out. The radio show that she hosts, put this right in her face. While she applied with no hesitation, once she got the job the fear of being seen set in. Going out there and exposing yourself can be terrifying. You’re open to people’s judgment and they just might not like you. As women, it can be easy for us to let people’s judgment or the judgment we perceive keep us from doing the things we want. But you can’t let that hold you back. There are people that are not going to like you...and that’s okay. Learn to accept that you aren’t going to be liked by some people, the same way you don’t like some people. You don’t have to satisfy everyone in the world!

Sharmin’s journey is an incredible one. There are so many things that have put her on the path that she is on and they’ve all fallen into place in a beautiful way. I hope that you take away from this interview a faith in the path that you are on and the motivation to grow while you’re on it.
