Your Journey to Self-Actualization Begins Here
Welcome and congratulations! Congratulations on taking the first step towards creating the life you truly want to live.
I'm genuinely excited that you've decided to start this journey with me. Taking the step to invest in yourself and your growth isn't easy, and I want you to know that I don't take the trust you're placing in me lightly. This packet will give you a clear picture of what we'll be doing together and how I approach coaching.
Here's what drives me: I believe everyone has the potential to create a life that truly fulfills them, but sometimes we get stuck in patterns or beliefs that hold us back. Through my years of mentoring and leading people in different contexts, I've seen how powerful it can be when someone has the right support and framework to make real changes. That's exactly what I want to provide for you.
I'll be honest with you, this process will ask you to be vulnerable, to question some of your assumptions, and sometimes to do things that feel uncomfortable. Growth rarely happens in our comfort zones. But here's what I promise: you won't be doing any of this alone. I'll be right there with you, helping you see things clearly, celebrating your wins, and supporting you through the challenging moments.
I'm really looking forward to getting to know you better and seeing what we can accomplish together. Thank you for choosing me as your coach.
Looking forward to our work together,
Komeil Mehranfar
Your Coach
I'm Komeil Mehranfar, a transformation life coach with a passion for helping individuals unlock their potential and create the life they truly desire.
Also a Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience. I am married to the love of my life Tara.
I am originally from Iran, and I currently live in Haarlem, Netherlands.
I quitted university in 2018 in Iran and started working as a Software Engineer Intern.
I built a strong foundation in technology as a Senior Frontend Developer and Team Lead during my 8+ years of experience, helping teams and individuals grow in startup environments. I also worked with enterprise clients like NN (Nationaal Nederlands) and Lyreco as a consultant.
After my immigration to the Netherlands, I did a 3 years ISTDP (Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy), 2 years as a coaching client myself with Nima Behrang, and extensive leadership development including a Landmark course and a 6-month intensive leadership program in Amsterdam. Through mentoring sessions on leadership program in Amsterdam. Through mentoring sessions on ADPList, I've discovered my passion for helping people to live the life they truly want.
Currently, I am being a certified ICF coach in Impact Coaching Academy through a 125 hours coaching program.
My own journey of transformation showed me that real, lasting change always starts from within. I’m not here to “fix” you because you’re not broken. My job is to support you in uncovering your own answers, strengths, and wisdom. I hold a safe, judgment-free space where you can be real, try new things, and grow at your own pace.
My mission is to help and empower people to be self-actualized and live the life they truly want. I believe every person has unique gifts to offer the world, and my purpose is to help you uncover and express those gifts fully.
"The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away."
- Pablo Picasso
Outside of coaching, I enjoy playing piano, creating hand-crafted art with my wife Tara, and playing board games like Catan and Wingspan. I mentor others about software engineering. I also love cooking (people say I'm a good cook!).
My coaching approach is built on three fundamental pillars that create a safe, empowering environment for your transformation.
I believe that you are the expert of your own life. My role is not to give you answers, but to ask the right questions that help you discover your own wisdom and solutions. I am here as your partner, cheerleader, and trusted ally throughout your journey.
Our coaching relationship is built on complete acceptance and non-judgment. This is your safe space to explore, experiment, and even fail without fear of criticism. Every experience is valuable data for your growth.
I see every person as capable of real growth and transformation. Together, we’ll focus on building resilience and developing higher emotional intelligence, skills that empower you to navigate challenges, learn from setbacks, and grow stronger through each experience. Even the smallest progress is meaningful, and we’ll celebrate every step forward.
I commit to showing up fully present, prepared, and dedicated to your success. I will challenge you with compassion, celebrate your wins, and hold space for your struggles. Together, we will create the conditions for your authentic self to emerge and thrive.
Understanding what coaching is and what it isn't, helps set clear expectations and ensures we make the most of our time together.
If you are dealing with clinical depression, anxiety, trauma, or other mental health concerns, I encourage you to work with a licensed therapist in addition to or instead of coaching. I'm happy to provide referrals if needed.
Clear expectations create the foundation for a successful coaching partnership. Here's what we can expect from each other:
We both commit to creating a partnership based on trust, respect, and shared dedication to your growth. If at any time something isn't working, we'll address it directly and adjust our approach as needed.

Our relationship is professional and focused on your growth. I maintain clear boundaries to ensure the coaching relationship remains effective and ethical.
Here are answers to the most common questions I receive about coaching. If you have other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Bringing my personal, professional, and educational experience into our coaching relationship allows me to utilize a variety of skills:
- I listen to you, not for judgment but for understanding.
- I ask questions that encourage you to think in new and revealing ways.
- I motivate, encourage, and support you every step of the way.
- I share resources to assist and inform you.
- I challenge you in safe and compassionate ways.
- I help you clarify and focus on your true passions and dreams.
- I co-create supportive structures and environments in your life, ones you can rely on.
- I hold you accountable to your highest standards and personal best.
Individuals, families, small companies, large corporations, and… you! Coaching is applicable in every industry and situation imaginable. Life provides an abundance of challenges, and coaching provides an abundance of support.
Successful coaching clients typically share a few traits:
- They are willing to ask questions and challenge their own perceptions.
- They are open to revealing the truth, learning from it, and taking action.
- They have a vision (even if it's clouded) of a better life.
- They are reasonably high-functioning individuals with a desire to grow into their best selves.
- They are willing to try new thoughts, habits, and approaches.
The length of time clients work with a coach varies depending on their goals and situations. I request a 90-day minimum commitment to allow time for our relationship to grow and for you to apply what you've learned effectively.
Coaching is future-focused and action-oriented, helping you achieve goals and unlock potential. Therapy typically addresses past traumas, mental health conditions, and emotional healing. If you're dealing with clinical issues, I recommend working with a licensed therapist.
Coaching works well if you're motivated to create change, willing to be honest about challenges, and ready to take action. You should have specific goals or areas you want to improve, and be open to exploring new perspectives.
That's perfectly fine! Many people start coaching feeling unclear about their direction. Part of our work together will involve exploring your values, identifying what matters most to you, and clarifying what you want to achieve.
The amount will vary based on your goals and availability. I plan to suggest 1-2 action items or reflection exercises between sessions. The more you engage outside our sessions, the faster you'll likely see progress. We'll adjust the workload based on what feels manageable for you.
Life happens! I require 24 hours notice for cancellations. Sessions cancelled with less notice will be charged unless there's an emergency. I'm flexible and will work with you to reschedule when needed.
I'm prepared to work with professionals across various industries and career stages. My coaching approach adapts to your specific context, whether you're in tech, healthcare, finance, or any other field. My background in technology and leadership gives me insight into professional challenges across different sectors.
If you feel coaching isn't the right fit, we'll discuss it openly. Sometimes we need to adjust our approach, or you might need a different type of support. I can provide referrals to other coaches or professionals as needed.
Everything we discuss is completely confidential. I follow strict professional ethics and will never share your information without your explicit consent, except in rare cases where there's risk of harm to yourself or others.
Yes! I encourage brief check-ins via whatsapp or telegram between sessions, especially if you have quick questions or want to share wins. I aim to respond within 24-48 hours on business days.
If you need to pause your coaching package due to travel, illness, or other life events, just let me know. We can put your sessions on hold and resume when you're ready, as long as it's within the agreed package timeframe. Open communication is key, I'm here to support your needs.
Yes, but not without your full participation! This isn't a "CliffsNotes to Happiness" program; it's more like a gym. I act as your personal trainer, providing the environment and resources for success. However, it's up to you to use them.
We share responsibility for this journey, but you are the one making changes within yourself and your life. If you're ready to do the work, then yes, passionately, wildly, YES, we can achieve all that and more!
I provide a variety of tools. We'll select what's best for you, and likely use them all at some point!
These may include:
- Program homework
- Self-assessment tests
- Reading materials
- Referrals
- Writing exercises
- Action assignments
I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have. Feel free to reach out via email or schedule a brief discovery call to discuss your specific situation and how coaching might help you achieve your goals.
