Shehnaz Soni – Transformational Coach, Rocket Scientist

Aerospace Engineer, Quantum Being Author, Quantum Healer-Transformational Coach

I was born and raised as an orthodox Muslim in Karachi, Pakistan. I came to the United States early, soon after an arranged marriage. I was not able to speak English, nor did I have any financial means.

Being new to a country like the United States felt like being on a new planet to me, all happening whilst accompanying a man I barely knew. Life took a path that was full of hard lessons, emotionally challenging experiences, roadblocks, cultural and language barriers.

How did I come this far despite my conservative upbringing?

How did I break through all the cultural, social, and religious barriers and stayed strong through the storms and came all the way far enough to touch the star and live in a Star Trek world like a Space cadet and help humanity go to the Moon?

How did I navigate my life to draw happiness and independence?

We can transform what happens to us into happiness. I have learned these skills through life and love to share them with you.

Ashes to “Sona” is a journey of transformation. “Sona” means “Gold” in Urdu, the National Pakistani language. Life can be a roller coaster ride for all of us, like a sinusoidal curve going positive and negative periodically. Born human, we live in a dynamic environment, constantly going through ebbs and flows of circumstances that shape us and mold us into unique individuals. It’s all about learning how to ride the waves like a surfer and go through personal alchemy as we transform ourselves to live a fulfilling life. That transformation is ongoing for continuous human evolution.

Who Am I?

I was born during a war between Pakistan and Bangladesh. I was raised as an Orthodox Muslim Girl and told every second, “you are a woman, and you can’t do anything”. Back then, I never imagined that I would become an Aerospace Engineer who would contribute to programs like The International Space Station enabling humankind to explore space, or Ground Mid-Course Defense, defending the United States from ballistic missile threats.
