I'm Lisa Zahiya, nationally known as a business strategist and life coach who helps:

  • Women cultivate lives on their own terms;

  • Mission-driven entrepreneurs make more and give more;

  • Small business owners scale quickly through effective digital marketing and products.

After receiving a BS and a MBA from the University of Maryland, I served as a director of marketing at Sylvan Learning Centers. I had always dreamed of being a professional dancer and left my corporate career to pursue my dreams of dance. I opened the award-winning Studio Zahiya and traveled as a professional belly dance teacher and performer.

I found that I enjoyed the community of body positivity, confidence, and success that Studio Zahiya created for my clients. I then furthered my goal of empowering others by training to be a life coach and opened a very successful coaching business. I have trained and hold coaching certificates with the following:

  • Certified Coach (Coach U)

  • Advanced Master Coach (CTI)

  • Infinite Possibilities Trainer and Trailblazer (Mike Dooley)

  • Brene Brown Coaches Training

  • Tony Robbins Leadership Training

I have now personally grown several seven-figure businesses reaching revenues of over 5 million dollars. I leverage this experience to help others pursue their dreams and have had six clients grow their businesses to over 1 million dollars in revenue.

I am based in New York, NY, where I own Lisa Zahiya Coaching.
