Praise for Shasheen Shah and The Kid and the King


"When I met Shasheen several years ago, on the surface, it appeared as if I were as a high a performer as they come. I had great career success and trajectory. Plus, I was physically fit, constantly worked on self-development, ate only natural foods, had a beautiful family, went on fun vacations and adventures, and lived in a great place in California. But the real story is I was beyond rundown, brain fogged, and on the verge of the scene from Anchorman-picture Will Ferrell's character saying, 'I'm in a glass cage of emotion.'

"My work with Shasheen and the EMP Process has not only continued to grow all the areas of life people would consider 'success, ' but most important of all is that I have a dramatically improved life experience, more presence, better relationships, and hands down, I am happier every single day. I started living life more the way I truly wanted, with clearer priorities and not just to continue to do 'what you are supposed to' or makes other people happy. The return on the investment for the work we have done is invaluable.

"And the best part of what I learned is that nothing is broken, I do not need to be fixed, and I am simply human like everyone else. Once I grasped that, my ability to connect and coach others (at work and in personal relationships) has taken off, and I believe I am making a profound impact as a leader more than ever. By embracing that humanity, seeking to understand it, and finding out what triggers me and what drives my emotions, I am able to see the game more clearly. The triggers never stop, but the ability to navigate life, stress, and incredible challenges just becomes easier."

-Chris Sullivan, Senior Manager at Tesla


"Shasheen brings a heartfelt and refreshingly insightful look at the question of how and why we communicate and act the way we do with a field-tested set of exercises and questions that are bound to make a difference in how you look at yourself and your team."

-Claude Silver, Chief Heart Officer of VaynerMedia


"Shasheen's coaching gets straight to the point. His insights cut swiftly through your self-imposed, limiting beliefs. Opening yourself or your team to that perspective will begin your own transformation toward outcomes at rates and scopes you'd previously only dreamed about."

-Bernie Maloney, Systems Operation Manager, Hewlett Packard


"Having Shasheen in your corner sets you up for success and promotes thinking from different angles to see past the obvious. His fresh ideas, resourcefulness, and talent resulted in outstanding achievements on my part, and I couldn't recommend this gentleman more."

-Oliver Hartwig, Pura Vida Villas, Phuket, Thailand


"Shasheen has been an incredible, life-changing asset to me. . . . I'm a completely different thinker today. I have that peace I've been striving for, and I thank Shasheen for getting me there in short order."

-Sharon Contillo, WebSphere Specialist at IBM

About the Author

What I encounter again and again is how high achievers-like everyone else-feel deeply estranged, alone, and misunderstood in their relationships both business and personal. It is within this hidden struggle that the real transformational work takes place.-Shasheen Shah Shasheen Shah, CRI, is the CEO of Coherent Strategies Consulting and Coaching. For more than 20 years, he has delivered breakthrough results to successful leaders around the world, navigating business outcomes and the personal challenges that go hand in hand with the journey. High-achieving professionals from Tesla, LinkedIn, Hewlett Packard, IBM, and Ashley Homestores are but a few who have benefited from Shasheen's life-altering coaching skills. In 2012, Tony Robbins hired Shasheen as one of his exclusive certified Platinum Partner and Business Results Coaches. Shasheen's life-altering coaching skills and his razor-sharp intuition, combined with his unique ability to tactfully navigate and address life's most confronting conversations, separates him from the rest, allowing him to cut through the barriers that stand in the way of the people with whom he works.As a philosophy major from Colgate University, Shasheen remains a student and continues to feed his insatiable appetite for understanding the human experience every day, incorporating, integrating, and applying new insights and awareness into breakthrough results for himself as a way of life. Understanding the work and world of Shasheen is to understand who he is from the inside out. Readers, clients, and friends will benefit from the values that serve as his operating system. They include: living in and contributing to a kind and compassionate world; cultivating the art of listening; teaching people how to put down their arms pointed at themselves; stop trying to fix what isn't broken; learning and practicing acceptance; mentoring young people; entrepreneurs, and our next generation of leaders; sharing the lifelong commitment to our inner life as a practice not just a quick-fix, shortsighted theory; serving the greater good (not just ourselves); and embracing and connecting with mother nature; living the life we imagine-starting now!A native New Yorker with roots in India, Shasheen currently spends his time in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Telluride, Colorado.

Ultimately, I believe what we are all looking for is an optimal experience in life. As a trusted advisor to some of the most successful men and women around the world, I have the privilege of listening to the inner conversations that most people never get a chance to hear. What I have found is that no matter what it may look like from the outside there is no escaping the human duality that I have articulated in the Kid and the King. While external success may look good, winning the internal game will allow you to feel good.
