This retreat was a reminder that when we come together with intention, courage, and compassion, growth happens, and it’s beautiful.

Book Signing Events
In "The Big, Brown Suitcase: A Woman's Journey to Freedom," readers are provided an inside look at the social, political, and personal obstacles she faced on her journey from the revolution to attempting to flee her country. Kolahdooz hopes to encourage readers to pursue their dreams despite their fears.
"One message I want readers to take away is that courage comes from taking a step toward what they think is right for them, even if it is a small step," Kolahdooz said.
Kolahdooz reveals how she confronted deeply ingrained cultural beliefs and inner conflicts, ultimately discovering an inner strength that enabled her to follow the right path toward a better life. She now dedicates her life to helping individuals unlock their full potential and how to navigate their lives with confidence.
"I want readers to know that their negative beliefs about themselves and the world around them can keep them from pursuing their dreams," Kolahdooz said. "To achieve their dream, readers must recognize and change their old beliefs."
