SAYYAD
My mission
Hi! I am Ismael Sayyad.
I accompany people in their journey to cultivate Calm, Confidence and Clarity, to get a better Connection to themselves and to other people.
I do it through my Calm Communication course and through individual coaching.
But most importantly, I do it from my heart, believing in the power of Human Connection.
If this resonates with you, you can write me directly on WhatsApp
"I believe in the power of human connection to spark happiness and create a more united world"
Who am I?
I have always been successful and happy.
Or that's what I learnt to think.
After a mid-life crisis I discovered that my success (work in the UN, family life in the Caribbean, travelling all the world and high doses of instant rewards) was external.
And that my happiness was a delusion dressed by a tiring continuos chase for passions and pleasure.
I’ve always been sociable, diplomatic, and well-liked. Making friends was easy. Sometimes too much and I was the one who was closing all the parties. Many relationships drained me. Some didn’t nourish me. And in others, I wasn’t fully authentic.
After living in 8 countries in Europe, North America, Latin America and Middle East, travelling around 60+ countries and going to all the festivals that I could (I even founded one of the biggest music festivals in the Caribbean) I got tired, and discovered that that was not the path to tranquility and happiness, the only two things that we all want (it took me a while to discover it!).
I then started a transformational journey to my Real Self. I have worked myself deeply in therapy, coaching, personal growth work, meditation, body awareness, understanding emotional and relational patterns. I gradually met and dismantled many of the "personas", "roles", surviving strategies and automatic reactions I had built to cope, and I meditate every day to come closer to who I am (or, perhaps more accurately, to let go of who I am not).
I recently quit my international career job in a programme of the European Union after understading that my purpose in life is to accompany others to walk a similar way. And then I became a Life Coach.
With my experience, learning, work and the inputs from many friends and clients, I developed the Calm-Connection System, a simple manner to show the path for Calm, Confidence, Clarity and Connection. And the Calm Communication Programme to move through the system with success.
I am offering all that I know and can share to all those people who are ready to receive it. From my heart.
Ismael
