☞ "I am a better writer, a better coach, and a better human being after having worked with Mona." — Kelly H., Writer & Coach

You don’t need another productivity plan. You need a pause.

You’ve done everything right. The degrees. The promotions. The strong performance reviews. And yet lately, it’s been feeling heavier.

You’re capable and accomplished, but second-guessing yourself more than you used to. You’re still performing, but less connected to what once mattered. You can sense a gap between where you are and where you want to be, even if you can’t name it yet.

I work differently. Through reflective writing and coaching, we slow things down enough to notice what’s happening internally. Action and clarity can inform each other rather than compete.

About Mona Khalil

As a first-generation Egyptian-Guyanese-American, I've rebuilt my life multiple times. My 20-year career has taken me from the Peace Corps to Big Tech (Tesla, LinkedIn) and Fortune 500s. I know what it's like to succeed on paper while losing yourself in the process. Now, I help high-achievers navigate complexity and rebuild self-trust through reflective writing and values-based coaching.

"Writing is really a way of thinking—not just feeling but thinking about things that are disparate, unresolved, mysterious, problematic or just sweet." — Toni Morrison

I'm an ACC-certified coach through the International Coaching Federation and a certified coach through the Hudson Institute of Coaching.
