My Story

I was born and raised in Denmark, with Pakistani roots. As a child, I loved to play, but I was also very aware of the people around me. If someone was being left out in the playground, I noticed. I wanted everyone included. Kindness mattered to me. People mattered to me.

At home, independence, compassion and being of service to others were values I grew up with. My parents encouraged me to think for myself, make my own choices and stand on my own two feet. Helping others was simply part of life — without needing recognition.

I grew up with two brothers, with all the love, laughter and banter that comes with being siblings. There was always that reassuring feeling that they had my back.

My older brother was also a big influence on me. He was broad-minded and understood people deeply and encouraged me to look beyond the obvious, while giving me space to explore my own spirituality.

From a young age, I carried a sense that we are all connected — that we come from the same Source and, beneath our differences, we aren’t truly separate.

At one point, I imagined myself working in human rights. Life had other plans, but the desire to help people never really left me.

Personal development had interested me for much of my life, but things began to shift when I started learning about self-talk, beliefs and the subconscious mind.

It also made me look at my own life differently.

Why could I consciously want to move forward and still sometimes feel held back? Why did certain patterns keep repeating? And why did other people’s opinions sometimes matter far more than I wanted them to?

The more I explored, the more I began to understand that these things don’t exist in isolation. Our thoughts, beliefs and emotions influence how we experience life, and I began to see a deeper connection between our emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing.

For me, it’s all connected.

As my curiosity grew, I began exploring different approaches to healing. Around the same time, I was looking for something that might help a loved one. That search led me to the Emotion Code, and I decided to experience it for myself.

Some of what came up I recognised — experiences I remembered and emotions I had felt, but hadn’t considered might still be affecting me.

What fascinated me even more was the idea that not everything we carry emotionally necessarily begins with us. Some emotions may be inherited through generations, while others may be absorbed from the people around us.

This opened up a different way of looking at personal growth. Perhaps it isn’t always about becoming a “better version” of ourselves.

Sometimes it’s about releasing what we’ve accumulated so we can reconnect with who we really are beneath the noise.

I completed a foundation course in Sufi healing and went on to become a Certified Emotion Code Practitioner.

Today, the Emotion Code is an important foundation of my work, alongside a broader understanding of emotional, energetic, spiritual and physical wellbeing.

Helping people has been a thread through my life for as long as I can remember. The way I do it has changed, but the reason hasn’t.

Looking back, I’m not entirely sure I chose this work.

It chose me!
