The result of this socialization is that we don’t give ourselves permission to imagine and explore what we really want.
And we definitely don’t have boundaries that honor our needs and preferences.
Inbal Sansani - Former Litigator, Humanitarian, Executive Coach, Immigrant, Auntie.
My name, Inbal, is pronounced like 'pin ball.' 😆
(A friend came up with that eons ago and it stuck.)
My last name is SAHN-sahn-nee.
I'm deeply committed to women's empowerment and ending violence against women and girls.
With 3 advanced degrees, 3 careers, and numerous 'dark nights of the soul', I've dedicated much of my life to holding space for people to share stories, imagine possibilities, and strategize next steps.
These experiences have vastly expanded my own understanding of choice and possibility.
Beyond my formal education and work as a litigator and humanitarian aid worker, I've also integrated years of comprehensive transformational skills training.
My primary coaching and facilitation training was through the Applied Depth Institute, including supervision with a senior practitioner.
This diverse background fuels my ongoing curiosity and commitment to personal and professional growth.
I help women and femmes get clear on who they actually are…
…and what they truly want for their lives...
... rather than who they have been told they should be...
... and what ‘success’ looks like.
I support clients to access their own wisdom and discern what’s most important to them in their lives, to allow themselves to claim these desires, and to create strategies and practices for pursuing what’s most aligned for them.
By exploring new practices and ways of showing up in the world that are aligned with who and how
they want to live now...
...I help them re-pattern outdated thought patterns, transform fear and shame, write new stories of self, expand their perception of possibility...
...and embody innovative ways of being and showing up in the world and relating to themselves and others that honor who they are and what they value.
I offer the skills, experience, compassion and capacity to hold both the details and the big picture, to find the gold in the mundane and the unsavory, and to ground theoretical ideas and concepts into tangible practice and strategy.
And I have the ability to go as deeply as you’d like to venture, because the depths are where I can support you to alchemize your fears and longingings into power and intentional action.
I approach my work through a nuanced understanding of the complexity of human behavior and needs, intergenerational relationships and patterns, social and cultural conditioning, the intersected systems we are a part of – and the times we live in.
Are you ready to stop checking boxes and start living in a more aligned way?
This often starts with what I call "better boundaries" – that words gets used a lot these days, but I have a different approach.
Sign up below and I'll send you my best tips right away.
I got on the immigrant overachiever’s (and overgiver’s) success escalator and it took me to where I had always thought I should be.
I went to Duke University on a full-ride scholarship and got many more accolades and two more degrees after that. I became a lawyer.
These achievements provided great cover for a growing anxiety (along with harmful coping mechanisms) that something wasn’t right.
I became a humanitarian aid worker and spent a decade working with refugees in camps and along borders in several different countries.
I loved this work and was really good at it. But, overtime, the 18-hour days and misaligned use of resources exhausted me.
I had too much responsibility and not enough authority to keep my staff safe. I was moving up in the system – but the system too often asked me to make myself smaller, hide my identity . . . and it ultimately made me sick.
I left the only work I had ever really loved and, with no capacity to envision what was next, I stepped into the unknown.
As a result of an ongoing, many-year journey of realigning with who I am, I made a series of big and seemingly little choices that have helped me create a life that honors my values and how I want to be in the world. In 2014, I became a coach.
As a result of my journey, I have a highly tuned bullshit meter. 😆
I honor my own rhythms with trust and confidence.
I have the skill to discern what’s my responsibility and where I have capacity to make a difference.
I am living my purpose of pursuing justice through service to women and femmes and becoming a benevolent ancestor.
I am now devoted to supporting others in also creating work and lives that honor your unique values and definitions of success.
Your first step is to book a clarity call so we can chat about what you want and what feels in your way.
Sometimes this looks more like getting clear on what you don't want first – and that's totally okay.
From there we can talk about the ways I can help you uncover more aligned choices, and begin to implement them without taxing your nervous system.
My part takes about 20 minutes. If it feels like a good fit to both of us, we can get you set up.
And if not, that's okay too. My goal is to help you make a good decision for yourself.
“After working with Inbal, I felt empowered and strong.
When we first started working together, I was quite confused with my feelings and emotions about what I wanted for work, home and life.
Boundaries have always been difficult for me.
Now, after working with Inbal, I have a greater sense of where I stop and others begin.
"I have never felt as confident and excited as I do now to move forward in my professional life.
I knew what I wanted the next step in my career to be but I was unclear and unfocused on how to get there.
This roadblock stemmed from multiple factors such as insecurities, fears and lack of a mentor.Now I feel ready to make a major step in my career.
My personal life is improving daily as I’ve learned to communicate with my partner in ways I have never done before."
"I felt seen and held in conversation with Inbal, and from this space real transformation is possible.
I reached out to Inbal initially because I felt stuck and uncertain about next steps, and needed support with knowing and trusting where to relax and let go.
Inbal’s deep, consistent encouragement to think about myself first, and helping me find ways to cultivate trust in myself and the Universe have been transformative.
Our work together really supported me to give myself permission to pause, and tend to myself, and to release self-judgment."
