I was born and raised in Tehran, Iran. After leaving Iran at 11, we went to live in Turkey for 3 years and then my family moved to the United States where we have been living since.
I studied electrical engineering and French at university, the perfect preparation for a self-employed author/speaker/business-coach as you can agree (just kidding!) and then entered the corporate world.
In 2011, I resigned from my 12-year long career at a Fortune 100 company to start my own company, Prolific Living Inc. My husband joined our company late 2012. We've never once looked back!
Today, I am a 4-book author, speaker, trainer at universities and businesses and a leadership coach. To learn more about my work, go to www.farnooshbrock.com
This is a very short book of beautiful photographs and quotes of Rumi. Such a wise man. We are each souls with the same feelings...no matter the span of time.
I love the poetry of Rumi. The photography is ok. I admire her courage for combing the two and publishing it. I was a little disappointed there was not more of the poetry.
This is an incredible and insightful presentation of life and a way of looking at our purpose. Simple thoughts and pictures of heavenly healing guidance.
