be authentic be bold BE YOU
Hi, I’m Sana. I checked off all the success boxes. Married at 25, executive at a startup before 30, high-rise in Manhattan, the picture perfect life. But I found myself completely empty and unfulfilled because I created a life based one external validation instead of true authenticity.
I took my first leap of faith when I hit burnout and quit my 6-figure HR executive role in 2018 to travel the world with my husband. This year abroad wasn’t the lavish world trip I thought it would be - instead, it was incredibly eye opening and woke me up to my first truth: The key to happiness isn’t making more money, it’s connecting authentically with others. So when I returned to NYC, I created Friendship Club, a community for New Yorkers to connect with awesome humans outside of professional networking. It was a wild experience building a social club during the pandemic, but I learned a lot about my self worth, confidence + my superpower to connect with others by being authentically myself.
shatter the glass ceiling to freedom + liberation
My second leap of faith was when I felt my soul outgrowing my current environment and felt a deep intuitive nudge for more freedom. So my husband and I decided to live in two different apartments in NYC for a year, a story that went viral, featured on Business Insider, Good Morning America, The New York Times, Tamron Hall Show and many more publications. This was the MOST romantic year of our life and it was so FUN to have my own space to be radically free and the weekends at my husband’s place to be wildly in love. We learned so much about self actualization, sacred union and our personal truths, rooted in true love.
I had no idea when I took the leap that I would become the leader of a movement called, Living Apart Together or inspire millions of people worldwide to have more open conversations about their own desires with their partners. Two years later and I still receive messages from women who thank me for my courage and how my story inspired them in some way, shape or form. And THAT is the most fulfilling thing ever.
live a soul-led, heart opened and mentally clear life
We now live together again in Los Angeles, CA. We took all of our lessons of growth and we are integrating it all as we ebb and flow through life together. Just two years after we chose to take the greatest leap of faith for more love, we became investment property owners of a super cute townhouse in Seattle, Adnan got his DREAM JOB and DREAM CAR and I get to help soul clients every single day create fulfilling lives and passionate relationships that light them up. We are so incredible lucky to no longer be living paycheck to paycheck and be so eternally blessed by the universe because we chose to go all in on SELF LOVE + balance it with TRUE LOVE.
Now I’m super passionate about helping others take leaps of faith to create their own happiness rooted in peace, joy and love.
I’m currently working on my first book and host the podcast, Thriving in Love. My favorite pass time is reading girlie romance novels, cuddling with my husband and spoiling my cats, Lily & Casper. I’m currently learning how to garden in our beautiful home in LA. After many trials and tribulations and continued search for happiness, I can truly say I’ve created my own Heaven on Earth.
