Exploring Life & Business with Amir F. of Coach My Mental Health

Today we’d like to introduce you to Amir F. 

Hi Amir, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Due to hardship in my home country, I Emigrated to Canada at the age of 14 by myself. Lived in group homes, struggled with anxiety and depression. At the age 16, I had a job and moved on my own; then due to my love and passion of helping others, I had a calling to be a Nurse. I put myself through a Registered Nursing program. I felt a drive towards mental health. As of now my Career has spanned over 20 years of working in multiple units across 4 different hospitals while working with 1000s of clients of all ages suffering from chronic and acute mental health ailments. Although I am still a practicing Nurse, I feel I want do to more and help/reach more people. I feel like I can accomplish that more in a role of a coach. I am starting a health coaching business, www.coachmymentalhealth.com. 

I love different people and cultures; when I am not working as a nurse, I Travel up to 4 months per year. I observe, learn, interact, and help others. To date I have been to around 60 countries, world’s biggest museums, world wonders, worlds top parties, scuba diving or free diving with sharks, near-death experiences, cooking classes, walking tours, history lessons, doing health teaching, and assisting people with medical care. This has led a lot of knowledge to share! 

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Not a smooth road at all. Hardships in home country, separation from family for a chance at a better life. Struggles with loneliness and depression, overwhelming family situation. 

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
Do you suffer from Anxiety, Depression, Schizophrenia, or bipolar? Do these struggles affect your quality of life? 

Are you ready for someone in your corner who understands your struggles? Are you looking for someone who could help you cope, grow and transform your life into a much happier version where your symptoms no longer cause chaos in your personal and professional life? 

Do you wish your knew more about your disorder, symptoms, and treatments offered by your physician? 

I can help you 

You are not alone… chances are others have gone through the same pains as you. As someone with 20 years of frontline nursing experience working with thousands of clients, I can draw from this background to help you thrive. My approach includes developing individualized strategies through a series of mindset and lifestyle changes to help you reach your goals. I offer one on one coaching, providing guidance around understanding the issues and what modalities may help, focusing on mind and body. Brain and the body are very well connected and influence each other greatly. They each secrete hormones that influence each other’s functions. 

Who else deserves credit in your story?
My family and friends have been greatly supportive, I know it sounds cheesy, but my mom has been greatly supportive in many ways; the other most influential supporter I had was my BFF of 30 yrs. for helping with the technical aspect, being a listening ear, holding me accountable for my slip-ups, and bringing me out from cave ages to modern technology!
