Welcome to Big Meaningful Life.

Hi, I’m Sally Mahamdeh, an Emotional Intelligence-certified coach and trainer.

Are you someone who holds yourself to high standards, strives for ambitious goals, and feels deeply empathetic toward others?
If so, you might be a Sensitive Striver—just like me.

The driving question behind this podcast is simple yet profound:
How can you care deeply, achieve greatly, and truly enjoy the life you’re building?

Join me as we explore the answers with inspiring guests—coaches, psychologists, and neuroscientists—who share practical tools and transformative insights.

Your journey to a big, meaningful life—free from overwhelm—starts now.
