Share the impact of this episode with us
What if your biggest strength is actually your greatest weakness?
In this raw coaching conversation, Sajjad Najafi thought he was coming to discuss time management. Instead, he discovered that his inability to say no was quietly destroying his marriage, draining his energy, and keeping him from owning the very gifts that could transform others.
Listen as cultural conditioning around service gets exposed as a prison, and witness the moment someone realizes that hiding their light serves absolutely no one.
Meet Sajjad Najafi - a technology professional turned life coach who spent decades saying yes to everything, believing it made him valuable. Raised between Bahrain and the UK, bullied as a child, and shaped by a culture of service-first thinking, Sajjad has dedicated his life to helping others unlock their potential. But there's one person he's been afraid to help: himself.
This conversation will challenge everything you think you know about service, humility, and what it really means to make an impact.
