Who am I?

Hi there, my name is Sheema Khan, and I am currently a corporate professional with almost 20 years experience. I have had the opportunity to hone my skills in sales, marketing, leadership, e-commerce and digital marketing, across a number of different industries. I have met amazing people along the way and enjoyed the ride so far.

As I continue down this journey, I was also able to find my passion along the way. Leading, coaching and mentoring started to become the best part of my job and the part that I looked most forward to and felt the most fulfilled by.

As I leaned into my leadership journey, it was clear that mental wellness and overall health of an individual was very much linked to performance and productivity. And because of that, I showed up differently for my team. In an effort to be an effective leader, coupled with my curiosity and quest to continue learning about mental health, a new journey started for me. One that allowed me to think outside of my business focused education and experience in corporate.

I am now a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and have completed my M.A. in Counselling Psychology. I own a private practice: Supporting Your Journey and am navigating the ins-and-outs of being a new business owner.

I can’t wait to share with you my journey so far. Read my blog for more.

So, why Shine with Sheema?

I wanted a space for me to share my journey, the learnings I have had and will continue to have, and my thoughts and feelings about mental health and wellbeing in the workplace and beyond. The intersection between leadership and psychology is so fascinating and ever changing and I would love to continue to explore it through my writing and share it with all of you.

The site is a work in progress, and I will continuously be learning and adding resources and inspiration that will generate new ideas and ways of thinking.

My hope is to explore ways in which we can all be better versions of our selves and shine a little brighter than we already do. Keep on shining.

My blogs are my own personal opinions about what I have experienced or sometimes a reaction to what I have read, heard or watched. In my capacity as a psychotherapy student and a corporate leader, I will be focusing my topics on the intersection of both.
