Sajjad Ahmad
PhD, CCC, AFCC®
Founder
My curiosity about the causes of human stress led me to realize the crucial interconnection between mental health and financial stability. After observing various cultures around the world, I witnessed firsthand how financial stress impacts mental health and vice versa. This understanding fueled my dedication to creating a holistic support system that addresses both aspects in a cultural context.
