Welcome to my digital home! As you explore my website and blog, I hope you sense the deep warmth and genuine desire I have to connect with You. My goal is to radiate kindness and forge meaningful connections, drawing from my personal journey of challenges and triumphs that I candidly share here.
I believe that what propels humanity forward is learning to be authentically, and unashamedly You, and then allowing others to learn from your experiences and stand on your shoulders. We all have experiences and gifts to share; the question is only ever, are we willing to?
The Frenched Persian-American
Bisous, Bisous,
With the warmest regards and so much love,
If you’re curious about my new chapter and what I’ve uncovered thus far (personally, relationally, and in everything I love), I invite you to stay connected through my blog, Elisha Ghorbani: The Evolution.
As I achieved my professional goals, I realized there was more to life than the “American Dream” I had been sold and gave the better part of my life to pursuing. At the end of 2022, I decided to embark on a journey to discover what else the world has to offer beyond superficial achievement, human production valuation, money, and keeping up with the “Joneses.”
From navigating overwhelming challenges to grappling with questions about my life’s purpose, these experiences have enriched my understanding of myself and how to connect with and love both myself and others, fueling my curiosity and passion for life.
Throughout my 38 years, I’ve faced significant hardships (many of which were unknowingly self-inflicted) and deep personal struggles, which I discussed on my podcast “The Girlfriends” and will continue to share openly here on my blog.
With these core principles, which I believe were passed down through my genetics, I founded and led two companies with eight-figure revenues and seven others with seven-figure revenues, overseeing up to 135 employees at a time. These roles provided me with deep insights into the joys, challenges, and responsibilities of leadership.
Professionally, I’ve had the opportunity to manage a diverse portfolio spanning industries like food service, construction, and real estate development. Coming from a Persian immigrant family, I was blessed with a strong work ethic and a fearless belief in myself.
My life has taught me many valuable lessons across a range of experiences—motherhood, entrepreneurship, food, fashion, partnership, marriage, self-love, and self-discovery. People often tell me I’m “a vibe,” and I hope that’s because of the way I approach life and my commitment to being authentically me (this took some serious deprogramming, courage, and a HUGE pinch of not giving a shit what anyone else thought anymore).
