We meet many people in our lives, but some of them touch us to stay in our minds.
Solmaz is one of these people. You can always count on her to help encourage you.
During all of the years I have known her she has always made herself available to support me when I was in need regardless of her own circumstance at the time.

I wholeheartedly recommend Solmaz to anyone looking for a "Professional Coach"! During my coaching sessions, I realized how critical it is to maintain a close relationship with one's inner child. I also learned that asking the right questions in life leads to the correct answers, and she taught me how to be a better version of myself every day and the art of gratitude! I am so grateful for my coaching time with her!

Solmaz Barghgir comes highly recommended by me.
She is very professional, and her information is complete and up to date. She is also very knowledgeable, and what I like best about her is that she always has humor. It is simple to work with her because she invariably has practical solutions.
She is not just there for one session and one hour per week; she is there for you whenever you need her and never leaves you alone.

I would like to thank Solmaz for all her mentoring and continuous compassionate support during my life coach sessions. She is supper awesome in her professional work. Here is my story; I got to know about Solmaz life coaching classes in one of live events on instagram. It was one of my random nights browsing on my instagram page and that was a start of a new me! I learnt that I have ignored myself and my self-love, what I want in my personal and professional life and what makes me happy. The sessions helped me to look at myself and my life in a completely 360 degree different angle. She truly helped me to change my life! I had to shove my past and make a good love connection with myself, had to get to know more about myself and making self-time and be a happier and independent version of me. It wasn’t an easy process without her kindness and also her restrict follow ups on my improvements each session. Change is hard you can make it only if you want with the right people to help and mentor you throughout the journey! Thanks a lot Solmaz

I still remember Solmaz’s first speech at Toastmaster. She shared number of photos from her childhood and adulthood in her presentation and one thing that really stood out in all of her photos is her positive attitude and her contagious smile. And I found her exactly the same in the last few years that I have come to know her. Since her first speech Solmaz has gone from strength to strength in becoming a confident speaker and a strong leader. She has taken up numerous leadership roles within the club and the larger toastmaster organization. She has also completed her Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM), the highest level of recognition in Toastmaster at a remarkable pace. Solmaz is very personable and a strong leader and I would highly recommend Solmaz to any organization.

Having Solmaz as my life coach is a gift from universe to me during the past two years of my life. I cannot imagine how I could deal with my darkness and mental distortions without her. She is the first person who I could share my deepest feelings and emotions with, and she gave me powerful step by step guidance on understanding my feelings and how to get along with them.

I am grateful that Solmaz has been one of the most influential people in my life.
She is exceptional at identifying the areas that require improvement within the first few minutes of each session. I have worked with her for nearly two years, and she has taught me essential life skills that have significantly improved my quality of life. The highlight of these sessions for me has been learning to make better decisions, particularly in my relationships (both professional and personal), and to establish healthy boundaries. I absolutely endorse Solmaz as a life coach, and I would never cease working with her as she is a highly knowledgeable life-changer.

I am thrilled to share my positive experience with Solmaz's "7 Pillars of Effective Relationship" course and coaching services. The course has been transformative, providing profound insights and practical tools for improving relationships across personal and professional domains.
The well-structured workbook and Solmaz's expert guidance have enabled me to break old habits and instill new, positive behavioural patterns. The "7 Pillars of Effective Relationship" framework proved instrumental in fostering better connections with myself, my loved ones, my colleagues, and my community.
The course's teachings offer a unique blend of wisdom and actionable strategies. I've witnessed remarkable improvements in communication skills and a deeper understanding of relationship dynamics. This course is a must for anyone seeking a positive transformation in their personal and professional connections.
I wholeheartedly recommend the "7 Pillars of Effective Relationship" course and Solmaz coaching services. The impact has been significant, and I am grateful for the positive changes in my life.

During our sessions, Solmaz is very attentive. She listens patiently and always provides me with up-to-date methods and tools for dealing with my problems and finding solutions. I appreciate how she analyses and guides me through my life journey by recommending personalized books and methods, among other things. She checks my notes and exercises every day and gives me feedback. She has so far assisted me with my marriage, career, migration, social skills, and, most importantly, getting to know my inner child. I believe that starting my life coaching sessions with her was one of my best decisions. I have already recommended her to many friends because of the peace and joy I found in my life through her guidance and I want the same for my friends too.

The impact of Solmaz's coaching on my personal and professional life is challenging to put into words. She inspired me to pursue my dream while remaining critical. Throughout my journey, she was encouraging and caring. She instilled in me the value of self-esteem and self-love. Today, thanks to her guidance, I am able to balance my responsibilities as a mother, wife, teacher, and student. I'll be eternally grateful for her positive impact on my life.

Moj Noroozi
Creative Marketing & Community Coordinator
I still remember the day I had "discovery call" with Solmaz. I was lost, desperate, and restless in my life. She helped me improving and building up my relationship with myself and others. Her unique personality cannot be fitted in words; just to name some, she's kind, patient, knowledgeable, supportive and focused. During the sessions, gradually I was able to trust myself again and get ready to have a new start in my life. It was not an easy journey, but without Solmaz and her support it would have been impossible for me to start any changes. I recommend her coaching sessions to people who are having difficulties with their lives and choices. She leads you to a path in which you can implement new knowledge and methods in your life.

Shayesteh V.
Project Designer at Psomas
I felt hopeless and struggled with my marriage when I started working with Solmaz. Solmaz assisted me in connecting with my inner child within the first couple of sessions, which significantly shifted my thinking about my personal life. Most days, I would wake up anxious and carry that anxiety with me throughout the day. With the tools Solmaz provided me, those feelings have mostly vanished to be replaced by a new way of thinking. I am always a work in progress, and I am in a better place and on a better path due to Solmaz's sessions. The most important thing to do is the homework assigned to you by Solmaz. Doing the work can help you change your life for the better. I highly recommend Solmaz to anyone who wants to improve the quality of their life.

She has not only been an amazing coach, but also a mentor who inspired and motivated me to integrate my career with my values an interests. Working with Solmaz has provided me with an abundance of resources and techniques for the enhancement of my career and personal life. She gave me one-on-one advice which was tailored to my aspirations and that I could not find somewhere else. I recommend Solmaz to anyone who is looking for a disciplined and passionate could cha that will help them develop a game plan specific to their needs.

Allan Madonik, DTM,
Chief H2O officer
Toastmasters is the largest non-profit communication and leadership organization on the planet. For the members to succeed, you need great leaders. Solmaz is a warm, caring, and diligent leader in our organization. She is well organized and always happy to lend a helping hand to a member. Her responsibilities include working with club leaders to help them reach their goals. Solmaz has achieved 'Distinguished Area' Status meaning she has achieved her goals as an Area Director. In fact, she ranks among the top 15 in all of District 60, a very impressive feat.
I would not hesitate to recommend Solmaz to any team looking for a diligent, team-building, and charismatic employee.

Spirited, Enthusiastic, and Leads by Example, Solmaz is a strong leader who consistently exceeds expectations despite obstacles. At the same time, she is very empathetic and supports team members in reaching their potential and achieving their goals. I had the privilege to have Solmaz on my team as Toastmasters' Area 12 Director 2015-16, and would highly recommend her as a team leader and supporter.

As a client, I found Solmaz to be knowledgeable, diligent and a very friendly professional. She is very patient, and her attention to detail gives clients peace of mind. I recommend Solmaz without any hesitation to anyone looking for financial advice.

Alberto Garcia, P. Eng.

SI was an executive member (VP Education) of Toastmasters when Solmaz was the President. I got a very good impression of her leadership abilities, since she was always on top of all the activities and involved with every executive, to ensure that every meeting was a great experience and that all targets were met.
If I had to describe her performance as a President in Toastmasters, I would say: team player, good attitude, and commitment.
Excellent person to work with.

Raz Razvi

Solmaz was very helpful in guiding my wife and me regarding RESPs and RRSPs, and in arranging funds for me to invest in my MBA education. Our savings continue to grow, and we appreciate our relationship with Solmaz. She is very good at what she does and takes a holistic approach to financial advising, considering the client's personal situation. This makes the conversations with her easy and productive.

I am absolutely delighted with your service. It is really refreshing to work with a financial adviser who is truly interested in their client’s needs, circumstances and preferences. We would like to express our thanks for the work you have done for us over the past years.

Ali R.
Pre-commissioning superintendent
I was lucky to have Solmaz as my account manager and I may easily say that her excellent consulting services was the main reason that gradually my banking activities shifted to RBC from another Canadian bank
. In any account opening activities or on any customization in my RBC accounts she was the main support so I could take the maximum efficiency of RBC services and tools . Her usual friendly attitude followed by excellent professionalism makes the banking activities easy and pleasant.
I'll be happy to have her support and consultation while I'm a RBC bank customer/client.
